BOARD INVITED REVIEW: The purebred-crossbred correlation in pigs: A review of theory, estimates, and implications.

Journal of animal science - 1 Aug 2017

Wientjes Y C J, Calus M P L

Abstract excerpt

Pig and poultry production relies on crossbreeding of purebred populations to produce production animals. In those breeding schemes, selection takes place within the purebred population to improve crossbred performance (CB performance). The genetic correlation between purebred performance (PB performance) and CB performance () is, however, lower than unity for many traits. When is low, the use of CB performance...
