Effects of folic acid on the performance of suckling piglets and sows during lactation
Folic acid supplementation during gestation may improve milk production, milk quality and piglet performance.

Interaction between dietary tryptophan and pyridoxine on tryptophan in post-weaning pigs
Pyridoxine (5 mg/kg) is not a major factor for Trp metabolism.
Pig growth at low rearing temperature: effects on performances and body composition
The effects of cold temperature on growth performance and body composition were reversible when pigs were placed at thermoneutrality during the growing-finishing period.
Blood variables and body weight gain on the first day of life in crossbred pigs and importance for survival
Several blood variables recorded at birth and on d 1 and BW gain on d 1 were highly associated with survival at weaning.
Influence of feed complexity on productive performance and nutrient digestibility of weanling pigs
Healthy weanling pigs do not always need an excess of highly digestible ingredients in the diet.
Sulfur concentration in diets containing DDGS: effects on feed preference and performance of pigs
Inclusion of DDGS in diets decreases the feed preference and negatively affects the growth performance of pigs.
Selection for feed efficiency in growing pig
The objective of our study was to evaluate RFI as a criterion of selection to improve feed conversion ratio (FCR).
Amino acid digestibility in heated soybean meal fed to growing pigs
Autoclaving but not oven drying reduces the concentration and digestibility of AA in soybean meal.
Keratinase affects performance and intestinal morphology and ecology of piglets fed diets with different levels of crude protein
Keratinase supplementation has a positive effect on the performance of weanling piglets fed corn-soybean diets.
Growth performance, nitrogen, and phosphorus excretion of pigs fed with incremental levels of DDGS
Maize DDGS may present a viable option to substitute a premium feed ingredient in growing–finishing pig diets.
Varying creep feed duration affects pre-weaning and post-weaning performance and behavior of piglet and sow
Creep feed initiated from day 5 and 10 reduce diarrhea scores in piglets and the estrus interval in sows.
Influence of particle size and multi-enzyme supplementation of fibrous diets on weaning and growing pigs
A reduction in particle size and multi-enzyme supplementation are useful strategies in the post-weaning period, but not in the growing period.
Effects of pig genotype on nutrient digestibility, relative organ weight and small intestine structure
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.
Dietary lysine and energy levels affect on growth performance and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients in weanling pigs
Increasing dietary lysine and energy levels improves growth performance and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients.
CLA during last week of gestation and lactation alters colostrum and milk fat composition and performance of reproductive sows
CLA administration to sows reduces backfat thickness loss during the lactation period and lets to higher piglet weight at weaning.
Folic acid affects performance of suckling piglets and sows during lactation
Supplementation with folic acid in the diets of lactating sows increases milk production, improves milk quality and the performance of piglets.
