Estimation of Genetic Associations between Production and Meat Quality Traits in Duroc Pigs

Estimation of Genetic Associations between Production and Meat Quality Traits in Duroc Pigs

Data collected from 690 purebred Duroc pigs from 2009 to 2012 were used to estimate the heritability, and genetic and phenotypic correlations between production and meat quality traits. Variance components were obtained through the restricted maximum likelihood procedure using Wombat and SAS version...
