Genetic Correlations between Boar Taint Compound Concentrations in Fat of Purebred Boars and Production and Ham Quality Traits in Crossbred Heavy Pigs
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Boar taint (BT) is an off-odor and off-flavor affecting pork caused by the accumulation in the tissues of uncastrated male pigs of three main compounds: androstenone, skatole, and indole. The reduction in BT compound accumulation by genetic selection is a viable strategy to stop surg...
