Effect of genotype (boar)xdensity in box interaction, on the growth performances (weight at weaning - 42 days, weight at beginning of test - 90 days, total gain and the average daily gain) of the Large White of Gornesti young pigs, at 42-90 days was studied. Three groups of pigs were examined with the following densities in boxes: 6 (control) (area = 0.475 m2/head), 8 (experiment 1; 0.356 m2/head) and 10 pigs (experiment 2; 0.285 m2/head).
