Genome-wide association study identified genomic regions and putative candidate genes affecting different backfat layers in Landrace pigs

Animal
Backfat thickness, a key selection trait in pig-breeding programmes, has traditionally been measured as a homogeneous layer. However, backfat is anatomically structured into three distinct layers, and each layer likely contributes differently to carcass ...

Body weight and backfat thickness in normal-fed or nutrient-restricted gilts.

, 2015
a, b in the same line denotes the effects of timing on the changes of bodyweight and P2 thickness.CON denotes normal-fed gilts (2.86 kg/d) and NR denotes nutrient restricted gilts (1 kg/d). The day of the second occurrence of standing heat was designated

Phenotypic Correlations of Backfat Thickness with Meatiness Traits, Intramuscular Fat, Longissimus Muscle Cholesterol and Fatty Acid Composition in Pigs [PDF]

, 2015
The aim of the present study was to determine the phenotypic correlations of backfat thickness with meatiness traits and intramuscular fat, cholesterol and fatty acid composition in the longissimus muscle of pigs. For this study, 60 barrows and 60 gilts (

Changes in adipose cells of Longissimus dorsi muscle in Iberian pigs raised under extensive conditions

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Twenty-four Iberian castrated male pigs were used to characterize and evaluate the effect of the duration of “Montanera” in the adipocytes size and its relation with the backfat thickness and intramuscular fat.

Melatonin improves endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation via MT2/PI3K/LIF signaling pathway in sows

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology
Background Increased backfat thickness of sows in early gestation is negative to reproductive performance. Endometrial receptivity is an important determinant of reproductive success, but it is unclear whether the effect of sow backfat thickness on ...

Effects of Acorns on Subcutaneous Fat Deposition in Yuxi Black Pigs by Transcriptomic Analysis

Metabolites
Background/Objectives: The backfat thickness of pigs is closely related to dorsal subcutaneous fat deposition and meat quality, and appropriate reduction in backfat thickness is important for improving pork quality.
