For pigs, like many other farm animals, stress is part of life which includes social stress (e.g., feeding competition and weaning) and environmental stress (e.g., extreme temperatures, tight space and novelenvironment during transportation and at abattoir). In addition to stress impact on swine health and production, increased consumer awareness on animal welfare is bringing new challenges to farm management, e.g. group housing and product marketing. While the current emphasis is on the adjustment of environment to animal needs, use of genetic selection may be an effective alternative approach to increase the adaptability and

对于猪，像许多其他农场动物一样，压力是生活的一部分，包括社会压力（例如，喂养竞争和断奶）和环境压力（例如，极端的温度、狭小的空间和新奇的环境（例如运输过程中和屠宰场的环境）。除了对猪健康和生产的压力影响外，消费者对动物福利的认识提高也给农场管理带来了新的挑战，例如群体饲养和产品营销。虽然目前的重点是调整环境以适应动物的需要，但使用遗传选择可能是一种有效的替代方法，以增加适应性，
