In the U.S., only the middle type exists. Flesh characteristics: estimation of genetic parameters and correlated responses to selection for growth rate in the GIFT strain. Wild Boar – Production, Meat Quality Traits and Derived Products. Together they form a unique fingerprint.

05). Working off-campus? They were brought in as part of a joint study between the USDA, Iowa State and the University of Illinois. Iowa State then dispersed their herd between 2008 and 2010. Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology. Meishans were bred for hyper productivity and prolificacy and to thrive in smaller areas and on rougher diets than other pig breeds. 2011; 5:1485–1492. Improving the meat quality of venison and other exotic game. In die Untersuchungen werden eine große Anzahl an Leistungsmerkmalen für Wachstum, Schlachtkörperzusammensetzung und Fleischbeschaffenheit einbezogen.

and you may need to create a new Wiley Online Library account. Percentages of bloodlines are tracked and COI is available on animals with at least a three generation pedigree. Distinguishable characteristics and early growth of piglets from Lithuanian indigenous pigs and wild boar intercross and backcross.

Therefore, it is necessary to improve the lean meat yield of Meishan crossbreeds based on the existing two-way or three-way crossbreeding systems. The effects of hybridization on growth allometry and craniofacial form in Sulawesi macaques. However, the overall acceptability of both crossbreds was considered little different from the Large White.

The Meishan is considered a medium sized lard carcass hog. Originally there were three sub-types known as the “small”, “middle”, and “large.” Of the three types, only the small and middle remain today.

): The possible influence of crossbreeding Taihu pigs are prized in China and Japan for their succulent marbled meat and superior lard and fat quality. Today none of the original research facilities maintain Meishan herds. Porcine NAMPT gene: search for polymorphism, mapping and association studies. Number of times cited according to CrossRef: Effect of MSTN Mutation on Growth and Carcass Performance in Duroc × Meishan Hybrid Population. 300-400 lbs (female), Hanging Weight: This marked the third, final, and largest exportation of Meishans allowed by China in modern times. It is important to point out that the three research herds spent over 20 years in total genetic isolation from one another and none were inter bred until pigs were in private hands beginning in 2016. Sus scrofa Based on data from 100 pork samples and meat quality traits, Pierzchala et al.

Purebred Meishan samples had a higher incidence of abnormal odours but lower cooking losses and shear force values than the other three genotypes. Differences in calpain system, desmin degradation and water holding capacity between commercial Meishan and Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire crossbred pork. Mapping QTL for production traits in segregating Piétrain pig populations using genome‐wide association study results of F2 crosses. Only 99 Meishan pigs were imported and they were equally divided (both by sex and genetic profile) between the three participating research facilities. The eating quality of pork from Meishan and Large White pigs and their reciprocal crosses. Suitability of Wild Boar (Sus scrofa) as a Bioindicator for Environmental Pollution with Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) and Perfluorooctanesulfonic Acid (PFOS). Manageable and docile.
