The effects of porcine somatotropin, gender and porcine stress syndrome on growth, carcass composition and pork quality

1997-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Lacombe breed pigs (72 gilts, 72 barrows) of three genotypes with respect to the porcine stress syndrome (normal, heterozygous, or homozygous for the halothane gene), were treated from 57 to 106 kg body weight with daily injections of 0.9% saline containing 0 or 3 mg of recombinant porcine somatotropin (pST) in a randomized block design. Pigs receiving pST had lower average daily feed intakes (ADF), greater averag...
