Phosphorus digestibility and metabolizable energy concentrations of contemporary cereal grain varieties fed to growing pigs
(2021-02-01)
Cereal grains are a major feedstuff in pig nutrition across the world. Due to their high starch content and their high inclusion rates, they supply the majority of energy in diets for pigs. At the same time they also provide ...
Genomic indicators for boar taint and fertility in Landrace and Large White populations
(2021-06-14)
Castration of male piglets in their first week of life is a commonly used but critically reflected method to avoid boar taint. Fattening of entire males represents a long-term sustainable alternative to castration but ......

Temperature-dependent development of porcine skeletal muscle cells in an in-vitro model
(2024-01-25)
Satellite cells are quiescent myogenic stem cells and it is possible to derive an in-vitro model of these cells. This in-vitro model can be used to represent myogenesis using proliferating myoblasts and differentiating ...

Multivariate methods for genetic association testing for immune traits in maternal pig breeds
(2023-10-10)
In pig breeding immune traits are considered to serve as potential biomarkers for pig’s health-competence. A limited number of published studies indicate medium to high heritabilities (h2) for several immune ...
