Genetics of growth in piglets and the association with homogeneity of body weight within litters.

Journal of animal science - 1 Apr 2010

Canario L, Lundgren H, Haandlykken M, Rydhmer L

Abstract excerpt

The objective of this study was to examine the genetic basis of homogeneity in piglets and the genetic correlations with litter size and growth during lactation. Genetic parameters for variation in piglet BW within litters at birth and at 3 wk of age, and in the BW of individual piglets at 3 wk (...
