Sow and piglet traits associated with piglet survival at birth and to weaning
Journal of Animal Science, 2020 AbstractAbstractUnderstanding the relationship between sow and piglet characteristics that are associated with stillborn rate and preweaning mortality is beneficial as litter size continues to increase. Two experiments were previously conducted to evaluate prefarrowing nutrition regimens on sow and litter characteristics.

Characteristics of biter and victim piglets apparent before a tail biting outbreak [PDF]
, 2011 Little is known about the characteristics of biters and victims before the appearance of a tail-biting outbreak in groups of pigs. This study aimed to characterise biters and victims (according to gender and performance) and to quantify their behavioural

The Maturing Development of Gut Microbiota in Commercial Piglets during the Weaning Transition
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Early weaned piglets are vulnerable to diarrhea because of weaning stress and immaturity of intestinal tract. Compelling evidence suggests that gut microbiota is vital to host health.
