Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Identification and culling of replacement gilts with poor skeletal conformation and feet and leg (FL) unsoundness is an approach used to reduce sow culling and mortality rates in breeding stock. Few candidate genes related to soundness traits have been identified in the pig. METHODS: In this study, 2066 commercial females were scored for 17 traits describing body conformation and FL structure, and...
