Estimation of genetic trends from 1977 to 1998 for farrowing characteristics in the French Large White breed using frozen semen
The objective of the study was to estimate genetic trends from 1977 to 1998 in the French Large White (LW) breed for stillbirth and associated traits measured at farrowing using frozen semen. Two groups of pigs (G77 and G98) were obtained by inseminating LW sows with semen from LW boars born either...
