Description of the research topic:
In the production animal origin food, the aim is to maximize the performance of livestock and to exploit the genetic potential that can be achieved in an efficient and sustainable way by satisfying the needs of animals precisely. Examining the genetic background of differences between genotypes and individual variance within the genotype has become increasingly the center of scientific interest.
The aim of the research is to examine the extent of variability and function of genes responsible for growth, feed efficiency and pork quality determined by the genotype and feeding, as well as their interaction. In the planned studies, 3 genotypes with different growth dynamics and two feeding strategies are used that affect the pig performance and pork quality, primarily its protein / fat ratio. At the beginning and at the end of the studies, tissue samples are taken for gene expression assays and the growth parameters and the slaughter quality, as well as some meat quality traits are determined.
