With the X chromosome housing over 1,000 genes vital for growth, immune response, and fertility, while the Y chromosome focuses mainly on male traits through the SRY gene, their genetic interplay presents significant implications for breeding. As research progresses, understanding these chromosomal differences could revolutionize livestock management, enhancing traits such as disease resistance and reproductive efficiency in swine populations.
