CBNU Improves Breeding Swine More Effectively
Reproduction traits such as litter size, the number of animals born from the same parents at the same time, has very low accuracy when selecting breeders by their parents’ breeding value in case that the breeders are not mature enough to have their own reproduction records. Until now, pig breeders in South Korea have selected candidate pigs used for the next generation based on the breeding value estimated by the parents' family tree, but the efficiency of this method was as low as 8%. T..
