Genes and have already been identified that impact growth and backfat, litter size, disease resistance, lean percentage and meat quality.  In addition, DNA \u201cfingerprints\u201d provide ways to verify traceability from the plate to the farm.  This new information will provide the means to better influence traits beyond the cost of production providing benefits throughout the pork chain.
