GENETIC AND NON-GENETIC VARIABILITY OF WEANING WEIGHT IN LARGE WHITE YORKSHIRE PIGS [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, 1996 The effect of sex, period and season of birth on the weaning weight of Large White Yorkshire piglets and the heritability of this trait and its relationship with birth weight was analysed wing data of 1477 piglets, sired by 18 boars and born during 1984

Animal, 2018 The low feed intake and stress associated with abrupt weaning in conventional pig farming often result in poor post-weaning performance, which is related to impaired intestinal function.

Estimates of parameters between direct and maternal genetic effects for weaning weight and genetic effects for carcass traits in crossbred cattle [PDF]
, 2003 Estimates of heritabilities and genetic correlations were obtained from weaning weight records of 23,681 crossbred steers and heifers, and carcass data of 4,094 crossbred steers using REML applied to animal models.

Genetic aspects of calving, growth, and carcass traits in beef cattle [PDF]
, 2003 The aim of this thesis was to learn more about the genetic background of calving, growth and carcass traits of beef cattle breeds in Sweden, and to assess the possibility of including calving traits and commercial carcass traits in the genetic evaluation.

Efficacy of a reduced protein diet on clinical expression of post-weaning diarrhoea and life-time performance after experimental challenge with an enterotoxigenic strain of Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2011 Previous experiments have shown that feeding a reduced protein diet within the first 2 weeks post-weaning reduces gastrointestinal protein fermentation and clinical expression of post-weaning diarrhoea (PWD).

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.
