Fifty-five embryos were transferred from four Duroc donor sows into four crossbred recipient gilts. The embryonic survival rate was 66%; 53% of eggs ovulated by donors were represented by live pigs at term. Three of the litters were obtained by hysterectomy of the recipients and introduced into a primary specific-pathogen-free herd, thereby saving the donor sows for subsequent use. Embryo transfer provided a method for exploiting the genetic potential of superior females.
