Abstract

In order to improve the utilization of crossbred wild boar, an experiment was designed to investigate the carcass traits and meat quality of the crossbred wild boar in the tropical rain forest areas of  Yunnan . Two hundred and forty crossbred wild boars and  Diannan  small ear pigs with similar weight according to the blood was divided into four groups with 3 replicates in every group of 20 pigs per replicate, which were  Diannan  small ear pigs group (“X” for short),  Xishuangbanna  wild pigs×Diannan small ear pigs group (YX),  Xishuangbanna wild pig×( Xishuangbanna  wild pigs × Diannan  small ear pig) group (YYX) and  Xishuangbanna  wild pigs× ( Xishuangbanna  wild pigs× Duroc) group (YYD). When body weight of pigs reached 90 kg, three pigs per replicate were slaughtered to determine the carcass traits and meat quality. The results showed that there were no significant differences in the major nutrient composition among four groups (P>0.05). Compared with X group, YX, YYX and YYD group all had significantly higher meat color value (P<0.05); loin eye area, ratio of leg, lean meat percentage and bone percentages in YX, YYX and YYD group all significantly higher than that in X group (P<0.01). Unsaturated fatty acid percentage was 51.16% in YYX group, 55.05% in YX group and 56.80% in YYD group respectively and was lower than that in X group, which was 57.58%; content of 17 kinds of amino acids was 17.82% in YYX group, 17.70% in YYD group and 14.32% in YX group respectively and was also lower than that in X group, which was 23.98%. These results indicated that crossbred wild boar in the tropical rain forest areas of  Yunnan had desirable carcass traits and meat quality, that is to say, there were higher lean meat percentage, meat color value and processing of high yield in crossbred wild boar; especially, YYX crossbred wild boar showed optimum meat features which could be developed the peculiar pork industry research with good market prospect.
