Muscle composition of carcass and of body weight gain assessed by computed tomography in pigs: feeding level and sex effect.
The overall aims of 2 national projects (SCANALI & EFFISCAN) were to investigate the interest of using computed tomography to access new criteria related to body composition and feed efficiency. The specific objective of the present study was to determine tissular growth performance of growing pigs and to test the effects of feeding level and sex.
