Abstract excerpt

The objective of this study was to infer (co)variance components for piglet survival at birth in purebred and crossbred pigs. Data were from 13,643 (1,213 litters) crossbred and 30,919 (3,162 litters) purebred pigs, produced by mating the same 168 purebred boars to 460 Large White-derived crossbred females and 1,413 purebred sows, respectively. The outcome variable was piglet survival at birth as a binary trait....
