Effect of gender, terminal sire line and age at slaughter on performance, carcass characteristics and meat quality of heavy pigs
Two hundred and forty pigs of 56 ± 3 days of age were used to investigate the effects of sex (barrows; gilts), boar sire (DD, Danish Duroc; ND ✕ LW, Dutch Duroc ✕ Large White ; P ✕ LW, Pietrain ✕ Large White) and slaughter age (160; 175 days) on performance and carcass and meat quality.

This study aimed to evaluate the performance, some carcass characteristics from feedlot lambs receiving sunflower crushed (SC) in the diet on partial replacement of soybean meal. The experimental design was randomized block with four levels of SC in the diet (0, 10, 20 and 30% of dry matter (DM)). There was a linear reduction of 0.02; 0.003; 0.003 and 0.17% for each percentage unit of added SC ...
