Genetic Parameters of Reproductive and Meat Quality Traits in Korean Berkshire Pigs
Genetic parameters of Berkshire pigs for reproduction, carcass and meat quality traits were estimated using the records from a breeding farm in Korea. For reproduction traits, 2,457 records of the total number of piglets born (TNB) and the number of piglets born alive (NBA) from 781 sows and 53 sires were used. For two carcass traits which are carcass weight (CW) and backfat thickness (BF) and ...
متن کاملAssociation between a non-synonymous HSD17B4 single nucleotide polymorphism and meat-quality traits in Berkshire pigs.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are useful genetic markers that allow correlation of genetic sequences with phenotypic traits. It is shown here that HSD17B4, a bifunctional enzyme mediating dehydrogenation and anhydration during β-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, contains a non-synonymous SNP (nsSNP) of chr2:128,825,976A>G, c.2137A>G, I690V, within the sterol carrier protein-2 domain...
متن کاملGenetic parameters for lean meat yield, meat quality, reproduction and feed efficiency traits for Australian pigs 2. Genetic relationships between production, carcase and meat quality traits
Data from 1799 Large White and 1522 Landrace boars were used to obtain genetic correlations between production, carcase and meat quality traits. Variance components were obtained by REML procedures applying an average information algorithm. Traits analysed included average daily gain from 3 to 18 weeks of age (ADG1) and average daily gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio from 18 to 22 wee...
متن کاملGenetic parameters for lean meat yield, meat quality, reproduction and feed efficiency traits for Australian pigs 1. Description of traits and heritability estimates
Data from 1799 Large White and 1522 Landrace boars were used to obtain heritability and litter effect estimates for performance, carcass and meat quality traits applying a REML procedure fitting an animal model. Analysed traits included average daily gain from three to 18 weeks of age (ADG1) and average daily gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio from 18 to 22 weeks of age. Carcass traits...
