Influence of genetic capacity for lean tissue growth on rate and efficiency of tissue accretion in pigs fed ractopamine.

Journal of animal science - 1 Nov 1992

Abstract excerpt

The influence of genetic capacity for lean tissue (LT) growth on responses of pigs to ractopamine, in terms of rate and efficiency of body growth and the distribution and accretion rate of body tissues, was determined in this study. Two sources of pigs representing low and high LT genotypes were used. Within each source, two littermate barrows from each of eight litters were individually penned and given ad...
