Pooling semen of multiple boars is commonly used in swine production systems. Compared to single boar systems, this technique changes family structure creating maternal half-sib families. The aim of this simulation study was to investigate how pooling semen affects the accuracy of estimating direct and maternal effects for individual piglet birth w...
