Abstract excerpt

The polymorphisms of LEPR and MC4R genes are involved in appetite control mechanisms and indirectly associated with level of fat content in pig carcasses. Therefore, the aim of our study was to determine if both polymorphisms have an effect on components of colostrum and milk of sows. In our study we used gilts of two Polish breeds: Polish Landrace and Polish Large White, which belong to dam-line in Polish...
