Genetic parameters for mesenteric torsion in a pig maternal line

•Mesenteric torsion (MT) is one of the major causes of sudden death in pigs.•The frequency of MT in the studied herd was 2.46 %, over 12 years of evaluation.•The pedigree and genomic heritabilities for MT were of low magnitude.•Selection to enhance feed conversion may reduce the occurrence of MT.•Lo...
