Effects of pig genotype (Iberian v. Landrace × Large White) on nutrient digestibility, relative organ weight and small intestine structure at two stages of growth

Abstract: Although the effects of pig genotype on total-tract apparent digestibility (TTAD) have been widely reported in the literature, there is controversial information on the digestive capacity of indigenous breeds compared with lean-type pigs. The strategy of this study was to test the effects of pig genotype and crude protein (CP) supply on performance, digestive utilization of nutrients, relative organ weight and morphometric analysis of the small intestine. Thirty-eight Iberian (IB) and Landrace 3 Large White (L… Show more

“…Average daily feed intake was 2474 and 2600 g/day in LR 3 LW pigs and 2535 and 2515 g/day in IB pigs for LP and HP diets, respectively. However, as reported in our previous paper (Barea et al, 2011), daily gain was higher in LR 3 LW (835 and 847 g/day, respectively for LP and HP diets) than in IB pigs (648 and 573 g/day, respectively for LP and HP diets).…”

“…Part of the experimental design and the experimental diets have been described in detail by Barea et al (2011). Briefly, a total of 38 purebred IB and Landrace 3 Large White (LR 3 LW) barrows (n 5 19 per genotype) were used.…”
