Genetic variation for resistance to clinical and subclinical diseases exists in growing pigs

2001-12-01

Abstract excerpt

The objective of this study was to test that genetic variation for resistance to clinical and subclinical diseases exists in growing pigs. A total of 13551 male growing pigs were assessed for resistance to five categories of clinical and subclinical disease: (i) any clinical or subclinical disease, (ii) lameness, (iii) respiratory diseases, (iv) diarrhoea, and (v) other diseases (i.e. any clinical or subclinical d...
