Proper animal selection is one foundation of successful swine production. The choices made will affect producers’ profits far into the future. Selection is important in many ways, from producing quality pork to animal health.
1 de ene. de 2020 · To meet future needs, use of genetic and genomic improvement in pigs must increase. This chapter outlines past and present methods to improve the pig genetically for production of meat and puts these methods in the context of advances in the fields of genomics and swine production.
29 de mar. de 2016 · Identification of selective sweeps in the pig genome. Domestication and subsequent selection by humans have generated an enormous amount of phenotypic variations that are not seen in the original wild animals.
30 de jul. de 2014 · This outcome suggests a higher efficiency of artificial versus natural selection in fixing functional variants. Potential pathways of porcine genome evolution under domestication
14 de nov. de 2012 · Our results reveal a deep phylogenetic split between European and Asian wild boars ∼1 million years ago, and a selective sweep analysis indicates selection on genes involved in RNA processing ...
INTRODUCTION. Performance of swine is dependent on genetics, environment, and its interaction. Typically, sow reproductive traits among dam lines is improve by way of crossbreeding and selection. However, most sows’ reproductive traits have low heritability wherein pig breeders have difficulty in achieving positive and significant improvement.
5 de ene. de 2022 · In contrast to natural selection, artificial selection is a practice used by humans to develop new organisms with desirable traits; in agriculture, it has yielded different outcomes, including both gains and losses of diversity.
