Genetic Evaluation of Post Weaning Growth Performances in Large White Yorkshire Cross Bred Pigs

Background: The profitability in swine production is mostly associated to the superior growth performance. information pertaining genetic and non-genetic factors influencing traits significant enable animal breeders adopt better selection managemental methods. Methods: Data from 50% LWY-Desi group 75% that were maintained at All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) on Pigs, Sri Venkateswara Veterinary University, Tirupati used understand effect of parameters traits. Result: group, period birth, season, parity sex have influence post weaning body weights most ages. Certain age groups showed post-weaning average daily gain; but no specific trend was observed for between two groups. heritability estimates ADG medium high both phenotypic correlations among weight inconsistent direction. Overall, performed than presumably due higher exotic inheritance superiority.
