AbstractThe National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council (NAS-NRC) Twin Registry is one of the oldest, national population-based twin registries in the USA. It comprises 15,924 White male twin pairs born in the years 1917–1927 (N = 31.848), both of whom served in the armed forces, chiefly during World War II. This article updates activities in this registry since the most recent report in Twin Research and Human Genetics (Page, 2006). Records-based data include information from enlistment charts and Veterans Administration data linkages. There have been three major epidemiologic questionnaires and an education and earnings survey. Separate data collection efforts with the NAS-NRC registry include the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) subsample, the Duke Twins Study of Memory in Aging and a clinically based study of Parkinson’s disease. Progress has been made on consolidating the various data holdings of the NAS-NRC Twin Registry. Data that had been available through the National Academy of Sciences are now freely available through National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA).

This study was conducted to determine whether feeding gilts (1) at or above their National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council (NAS-NRC 1998) requirements during gestation, and (2) to lose a moderate (~10%) or large (~17%) amount of maternal protein during lactation had a residual effect on their progeny’s growth, carcass characteristics and pork quality at market weight. From each litter, the heaviest and lightest barrows and gilts were selected. The progeny of gilts fed above their requirements during gestation, and those that lost the least body protein during lactation were heavier at weaning; +0.3 kg (P < 0.05) and +0.5 kg (P = 0.01), respectively. However, these liveweight differences, which were associated with the gestation and lactation effects, were no longer evident (P > 0.05) at day 35 or 85 post-weaning. But at slaughter, these animals had thinner (P < 0.01) fat thickness and higher (P < 0.05) predicted salable meat yield. Independently of the gestation and lactation treatments, and compared to the low-weaning-weight pigs, the high- weaning-weight pigs maintained their weight advantage (P < 0.01 at day 35 (+ 2.8 kg) and day 85 (+ 5.4 kg) post-weaning), took 4.5 fewer days (P < 0.01) to reach market weight, but had similar (P > 0.05) carcass characteristics and pork quality. Key words: Gilts, gestational and lactational protein, litter, growth, carcass characteristics and meat quality
