Estimation of genetic parameters for traits associated with reproduction, lactation, and efficiency in sows.

Journal of animal science - 1 Nov 2016

Thekkoot D M, Kemp R A, Rothschild M F, Plastow G S, Dekkers J C M

Abstract excerpt

Increased milk production due to high litter size, coupled with low feed intake, results in excessive mobilization of sow body reserves during lactation, which can have detrimental effects on future reproductive performance. A possibility to prevent this is to improve sow lactation performance genetically, along with other traits of interest. The aim of this study was to estimate breed-specific genetic parameters...
