Embryonic and fetal development in different genotypes in pigs.

Journal of reproduction and fertility. Supplement - 1 Jan 1997

Ford S P

Abstract excerpt

It is widely accepted that uterine capacity, not ovulation rate, is the greatest restraint on litter size in pigs. Recently, the reproductive strategy(s) of the Chinese Meishan pig, a breed which farrows three to five more piglets per litter than US or European pig breeds, has come under intense scrutiny. It was initially determined that the Meishan female could farrow more viable piglets per litter than US or...
