Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymorphisms in Several Porcine Genes are Associated with Growth TraitsGetmantseva Lyubov, Anatoly Kolosov, Maria Leonova et al.The purpose of this study was to confirm the relation between polymorphism of POU1F1, GH, PRLR and MC4R genes and economically important traits of the Duroc pigs bred in Russia. Studies were carried out on purebred Duroc breed pigs (male n = 360). All pigs were kept under identical and standard conditions. The traits of analysis: The number of Days … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 12 Nov 2016 · 7,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStandardized Ileal Digestible Lysine Requirement of 6- to 10-kg Weanling PigsChan Sol Park, Beob Gyun KimThe objective of the experiment was to determine the Standardized Ileal Digestible (SID) lysine requirement for weanling pigs from 6 to 10 kg of Body Weight (BW). A total of 216 weanling pigs with an initial BW of 6.23±0.93 kg were assigned to six diets in a randomized complete block design with five blocks based on BW. Six corn-dried whey-soybean … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 10 Jun 2015 · 7,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSMENT OF MIXED MINERALS BY OBSERVING INTESTINAL EPITHELIAL CELL ALTERATIONS IN PIGLETSChamroon Maneewan, Apichai Mekbungwan, Koh-En Yamauchi, Keisuke EdashigeThe experiment was conducted to assess the effect of dietary Mixed Minerals (MM) on intestinal epithelial cell morphology, villus height and area and growth performance in piglets. Thirty two-month-old hybrid piglets (15 kg BW) (Large White × Landrace × Duroc), consisting of 15 castrated males and 15 females, were allocated into three experimental groups with five replicates of one castrated … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2014 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF NATURALLY PRODUCED DIETARY FUSARIUM MYCOTOXINS ON WEANING PIGSS. Y. Shin, C. Kong, I. H. Kim, B. G. KimMycotoxins reduce animal productivity and animal health. The influence of Fusarium mycotoxins in corn co-products on pig performance is an important issue in swine feed industry. This study was conducted to determine the effects of naturally produced Fusarium mycotoxins in Corn Gluten Meal (CGM) on growth performance of nursery pigs. A total 96 weaning pigs comprising 48 gilts and 48 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,611 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReplacement Heifer Selection in A Beef Cattle HerdAkin Pala, Roger McCrawThe relationship between a heifer's weaning weight and her fertility and weaning weight of her calves was studied. Also investigated was the effect of dam amount of fat (DAF=dam weaning weight/weaning height) on heifers' ability to breed and rebreed. This is similar to Body Mass Index (BMI) calculated for humans. The relationship of dam's average daily gain from birth to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,817 accessesView PDFCite
