• Non-infectious causes of pre-weaning mortality in piglets (2016, background): “, 2008), because small piglets cannot compete with their larger littermate pigs, resulting in low BW piglets with a low nutritional status and poor passive immunity (Quiniou et al., 2002).”
• Board-invited review: intrauterine growth retardation: implications for the animal sciences. (2006, unknown): “The lower piglet birth weight is associated with lower ADG during the suckling, nursing, and growingfinishing periods (Quiniou et al., 2002).”
