Heat stress has negative impacts on pork production, particularly during the grow-finish phase. During heat stress events, swine alter feeding behavior to reduce heat production, which can negatively affect performance. Recent technology advancements

Puberty onset is a complex physiological process, which enables the capacity for reproduction through increased gonadotropin-releasing hormone and subsequently luteinizing hormone secretion. While cells that coexpress kisspeptin, neurokinin B (NKB),

Advancing gilt puberty onset is financially desirable for swine production. Neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) that co-express kisspeptin, neurokinin B (NKB), and dynorphin (i.e. KNDy cells) are believed to control gonadotropin-releasi
