Clostridium butyricum and carbohydrate active enzymes contribute to the reduced fat deposition in pigs. [PDF]

Imeta
In the present study, we found significant differences in microbial composition and potential functional capacity among different gut locations in Jinhua pigs with distinct fatness phenotypes. Second, we identified that Jinhua pigs with lower fatness exhibited higher levels of short‐chain fatty acids in the colon, highlighting their enhanced ...

Genome‐wide association studies for additive and dominance effects for body composition traits in commercial crossbred Piétrain pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 140, Issue 4, Page 413-430, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Fat depth (FD) and muscle depth (MD) are economically important traits and used to estimate carcass lean content (LMP), which is one of the main breeding objectives in pig breeding programmes. We assessed the genetic architectures of body composition traits for additive and dominance effects in commercial crossbred Piétrain pigs using both 50 ...

Identification of a missense variant in the porcine AGPAT gene family associated with intramuscular fat content through whole‐genome sequencing

Animal Genetics, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 782-793, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The 1‐acylglycerol‐3‐phosphate O‐acyltransferases (AGPATs) are enzymes that catalyze the conversion of lysophosphatidic acid to phosphatidic acid, which is a precursor of triacylglycerol, the main fat reservoir in mammals. We used whole‐genome sequencing of 205 pigs to identify 6639 genetic variants in the porcine AGPAT gene family.

Oregano essential oil showed limited effects on pigs' carcass quality and haematology whereas a transcriptome analysis revealed significant modulations in the jejunum and the ileum

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 106, Issue 5, Page 1017-1035, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Pig production depends on a health and performance balance. An approach to improve intestinal health is the oregano essential oil (OEO) supplementation within a conventional diet. Intestinal integrity regulating effects, for example gene expression, of some feed ingredients are important key factors for that balance.

Effects of two zinc supplementation levels and two zinc and copper sources with different solubility characteristics on the growth performance, carcass characteristics and digestibility of growing‐finishing pigs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 59-71, January 2021., 2021
Abstract The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of two Zn supplemented levels and two Zn and Cu sources (sulphate and hydroxychloride) on growing‐finishing pigs. An in vitro study and an in vivo study were conducted. In the in vitro study, Zn solubility from each source at different Zn supplementation levels was evaluated, as well as ...

Identification of a novel QTL for lean meat percentage using imputed genotypes

Animal Genetics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 658-663, August 2024.
Abstract Lean meat percentage is a critical production trait in pig breeding systems with direct implications for the sustainability of the industry. In this study, we conducted a genome‐wide association study for lean meat percentage using a cohort of 850 Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) crossbred pigs and we identified QTL on SSC3 and SSC18.

Prediction of Loin Muscle Area with the Autofom [PDF]

, 1999
An active contour algorithm for prediction of loin eye area (LEA) in the transectional Autofom images has been developed and implemented. The results of 75 carcasses measured at Hatfield Quality Meats indicate a standard error below 1 square inch by ...
