A cross-specific multiplicative binomial recursive model for the analysis of perinatal mortality in a diallel cross among three varieties of Iberian pig
(Nature Research, 2020-12-03)
Perinatal piglet mortality is an important factor in pig production from economic and animal welfare
perspectives; however, the statistical analysis of mortality is difcult because of its categorical ...
Maternal Transmission Ratio Distortion in Two Iberian Pig Varieties
(MDPI, 2020-09-05)
Transmission ratio distortion (TRD) is defined as the allele transmission deviation from the heterozygous parent to the offspring from the expected Mendelian genotypic frequencies. Although TRD can be ...
Genomic differentiation among varieties of Iberian pig
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2020-02-26)
Aim of study: The objective of this study was to identify the autosomal genomic regions associated with genetic differentiation between three commercial strains of Iberian pig.
Area of study: Extremadura ...
Comparative Transcriptome Profile between Iberian Pig Varieties Provides New Insights into Their Distinct Fat Deposition and Fatty Acids Content
(MDPI, 2021-02-27)
The high deposition of intramuscular fat and the content of oleic fatty acid are characteristic of the Iberian pig. These two parameters present great variability and are differentiated amongst the ...
Inbreeding depression load for litter size in Entrepelado and Retinto Iberian pig varieties
(Oxford University Press, 2019-03-14)
Individual-specific hidden inbreeding depression load (IDL) can be accounted for in livestock populations by appropriate best linear unbiased prediction approaches. This genetic effect has a recessive ...
