Abstract

Currently, realization and improvement of genetic potential of purebred boars is an urgent task in the field of pig-breeding. To achieve the task, it is necessary to include new parameters for the selection of individuals for the reproduction of the herd. The purpose of this work was to calculate genetic and phenotype correlation of fodder behavior indicators, feed conversion and predicted residual feed intake in pigs of Landras breed. The obtained scores of EBV could be used to understand direction of selection work, including new parameters of quantative features.
