Duroc; carcass weight; crossbreds; farrowing; finishing; genes; genetic correlation; genetic techniques and protocols; harvesting; heritability; models; mortality; residual effects; sires; swine; variance; weaning
Abstract:
... Records from 99,384 crossbred pigs from Duroc sires and Large White×Landrace dams were used to estimate genetic parameters for survival traits at different stages of the fattening period, and their relations with final weight. Traits analyzed were preweaning mortality (PWM), culling between weaning and harvesting (Call), culling during the farrowing period (Cfar), in the nursery site (Cnur), durin ...

Abstract:
... A method allowing simultaneous genotyping of two loci: pre-implantation protein 3 (prei3) and estrogen receptor (ESR) was presented. In multiplex PCR amplification, two amplicons were simultaneously produced a 294bp fragment of prei3 gene and a 121bp fragment of ESR gene and were then subjected to ''one-tube'' restriction enzyme digestion with MspI and PvuII. A total of 92 sows from the 4th dam li ...

Subject:
Duroc; swine; missense mutation; genes; carcass quality; genetic techniques and protocols; carcass evaluation; breeding value; single nucleotide polymorphism; Italy
Abstract:
... The adiponectin (adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing) encoded by ADIPOQ is adipokine that modulates several biological processes such as lipogenesis, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity. An objective of this study was to identify SNPs in the ADIPOQ gene both in cosmopolitan and local pig breeds reared in Italy and in Meishan samples. Resequenci ...
