• Response of Domestic Animals to Climate Challenges (2009, background): “Differences in their ability to withstand environmental stressors should allow selection of animals (within breeds and between breeds/species) better suited to particular environmental conditions (Scott and Slee 1987; Slee et al. 1991; Langlois 1994; Hammond et al. 1996, 1998; Gaughan et al. 1999; H”
• Non-infectious causes of pre-weaning mortality in piglets (2016, background): “Piglet PWM is suggested to be sex-biased, with male piglets being at greater risk of death, despite being born with a higher BW (Herpin et al., 2002; Baxter et al., 2012a).”
• Nest-building behaviour in sows and consequences for pig husbandry (2009, background): “The maintenance of the homeothermic balance in the cold is reduced in smaller piglets due to the greater surface to body mass ratio resulting in higher heat losses (Herpin et al., 2002).”
