Abstract Large genotyping datasets, obtained from high‐density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, developed for different livestock species, can be used to describe and differentiate breeds or populations. To identify the most discriminating genetic markers among thousands of genotyped SNPs, a few statistical approaches have been proposed. In

Microsatellite analysis of the genetic diversity in the Black Slavonian pig
This research is focused on the genetic diversity and population structure of the Black Slavonian pig, with the aim of assessing the situation regarding the endangerment of genetic diversity, and defining the further role of this breed in the preseration of its genetic diversity.

Low input production system suitable for Black Slavonian pig breeding [PDF]
Pig production in Croatia is organized on the big farms and small family farms. During the last 10 years there has been a drastic decrease in number of pigs. One of the reasons for this decrease is high production cost. For that reason it is necessary to reorganise pig production and introduce low cost production systems.

Abstract The rapid expansion of wild pigs (Sus scrofa) throughout the United States has been fueled by unlawful introductions, with invasive populations causing extensive crop losses, damaging native ecosystems, and serving as a reservoir for disease. Multiple states have passed laws prohibiting the possession or transport of wild pigs.

Microsatellite multiplex method for potential use in Black Slavonian pig breeding [PDF]
Previous studies on Black Slavonian pig breed were focused on the main coat color MC1R locus and on development of the method for Black Slavonian cross-breeds identification, based on coat color genotype. Microsatellites have been used for population studies in pigs for last 25 years and are convenient markers for evaluating the genetic diversity of ...

Virtual museum of Black Slavonian pig - fajferica
The native breed, Black Slavonian pig - Fajferica originates from the 19th century farm Orlovnjak near Osijek. Black Slavonian pig was the most important and numerous breed in Slavonia until the first half of 20th century. It is included in the National program of preservation of autochthonous and protected breeds of domestic animals in Croatia, since ...

PORK CARCASS COMPOSITION AND THE MEAT QUALITY OF THE BLACK SLAVONIAN PIG – THE ENDANGERED BREEDS IN THE INDOOR AND OUTDOOR KEEPING SYSTEM [PDF]
The research has been made on 20 Black Slavonian Pigs in both ways of keeping them (indoor, outdoor). The pigs have been fed up to 135 kg body weight. The pigs in the outdoor system have been held on a natural pasture ground. Other than pasture, the pigs

Black Slavonian pig - a breed for extensive husbandry
Black Slavonian (BS) pig is local Croatian breed originated in Slavonia region in the second half of the 19th century. Until the 1950s it was the most widespread breed in Slavonia, mainly used for the production of fat and meat products. Later, its population was drastically reduced and in 1990s the survival of the breed was endangered.

Implementation of optimum contribution selection in the Black Slavonian pig population
Breeding programmes of indigenous pig breeds aim to balance genetic diversity within populations and the achievement of genetic improvement for important traits. The object of the present study was to apply optimum contribution selection procedures in the population of Black Slavonian pig and to find a balance between genetic gain and the loss of ...
