title: [Importance of hormone regulation systems to pork quality].
abstract: Separately and simultaneously occurring disorders in thyroid and adrenal functional circuits were recorded from 218 land race pigs, 01 line, in several experiments, in the GDR. No detrimental impact on post mortem pork quality was found to have been caused by disorders in each one of the two circuits separately, but measurable defects were established, following malfunction of both circuits. Also studied were consequences of disorders on the hormonal and cardiovascular systems as well as on fattening and slaughter performance.
