Abstract excerpt

A study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of selection for intramuscular fat (IMF) in a population of purebred Duroc swine using real-time ultrasound. Forty gilts were purchased from US breeders and randomly mated for 2 generations to boars available in regional boar studs, resulting in a base population of 56 litters. Littermate pairs of gilts from this population were randomly assigned to a select line...
