NutritionAbstract

333 Emerging voices: Biochemical, neurochemical, morphological and proteomic study of different nutritional conditions in Iberian pigs

The consequences of different nutritional changes were analyzed, whether applied to the pregnant mother or directly to the offspring. Doctoral thesis from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, UAB, Spain. Advised by Anna Bassols and with the collaboration of Antonio Gonzalez de Bulnes.

NutritionAbstract

Flavour supplementation to improve sow reproductive performance and microbiota during late gestation and lactation

Flavor supplementation improved the reproductive performance of the sows by changing the fecal microbial profile.

Genetics-ReproductionAbstract

333 Emerging voices - Individual and nutritional factors affecting the homogeneity and performance of Iberian pig production

An investigation at both phenotypic and genotypic levels of the implications of the intrauterine development of the piglets in the postnatal growth. Doctoral thesis from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, UCM, Spain, advised by Antonio Gonzalez de Bulnes, Cristina Óvilo Martín and Beatriz Isabel Redondo.

ManagementAbstract

Preferential associations in an unstable social network: applying social network analysis to a dynamic sow herd

These findings highlight the complexities involved when forming social preferences and present a platform for further exploring the motivations for preferential associations among intensively farmed pigs.

ManagementAbstract

Reproductive performance of gilts and weaned sows grouped at different days after insemination

Group housing gestating sows 2 days after breeding compromised litter size; however, mixing gilts on days 1 to 4 after breeding did not impair reproductive performance.

Lameness in pregnant sows alters placental stress response

Lameness may decrease sow gestation length and reduce placental efficiency in protecting the offspring from the sows’ stress response.

Hypor dam lines: Key management aspects

In this article, we focus on the key aspects of management to optimize performance from this genetic line of sows. We talked with Carlos Martins.

Who has better production indexes- Spain or the United States? (2/2)

We continue our comparison of production data between sow farms in Spain and the United States. This time we focus on replacement rate, pre-weaning mortality, and weaning weight.

The new challenge of crate-free housing in farrowing

Europe is preparing to eliminate farrowing crates in the next few years... Are farmers ready? Will this benefit the sows? What about the piglets?

Genetics-ReproductionAbstract

Vaginal microbiota differences associated with pelvic organ prolapse risk during late gestation in commercial sows

Sows with greater pelvic organ prolapse risk have unique vaginal microflora.

Graph 1. Responses from 333 users indicate a trend toward gestations greater than 115 days.

Genetics-ReproductionArticle

Is gestation length changing in sows?

User responses of the 333 survey on gestation length in sows reveal gestations are trending around 115.5 days.

Genetics-ReproductionAbstract

Associations between foetal size and ovarian development in the pig

Postnatal differences in the reproductive potential of growth restricted females are programmed early in gestation.

Genetics-ReproductionAbstract

In utero heat stress alters postnatal phenotypes in swine

Pigs exposed to in utero heat stress develop a variety of postnatal phenotypes that prevent profitable production, and compromise health, and welfare in commercial production systems.
