Heat stress effects on farrowing rate in sows: genetic parameter estimation using within-line and crossbred models.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jul 2012

Abstract excerpt

The pork supply chain values steady and undisturbed piglet production. Fertilization and maintaining gestation in warm and hot climates is a challenge that can be potentially improved by selection. The objective of this study was to estimate 1) genetic variation for farrowing rate of sows in 2 dam lines and their reciprocal cross; 2) genetic variation for farrowing rate heat tolerance, which can be defined as the...
