Plasma concentrations of IGF-I and nutrients in purebred and crossbred Large White or Meishan fetuses gestated by sows of either breed. Blood samples taken from 4 fetal genotypes at d 90 or d 110 of development were analyzed (n = 6 per age and per genotype). LW and F1_LW were from LW sows, whereas MeiS and F1_MeiS were from MeiS sows. Analysis of variance was used to determine the main effects of developmental age and fetal genotype and their interaction effect (A x G) on plasma concentrations of IGF-I, glucose, fructose, lactate and albumin (a). The albumin concentration in plasma was plotted against the abundance of albumin in the adipose tissue of the same fetuses (b)
