GENETIC DETERMISM OF THE GROWING CHARACTERS AND THE CARCASS QUALITY OF A PIG POPULATION

Studying the genetic parameters presents importance for choosing selection method,breeding sistem and the goal objective of selection.The study was carried on a sample from a pig population named LS 345-Periş, consist of2759 offspring belonging to 80 of sire families. It can be notice that the growing andbody empty traits have a genetic determinism intermediate towards intense. Theheritability values range from 0.264 (backfat thickness) to 0.411 (percentage of muscletisue)
