Resumo: Individual weights at birth (PO), 21 days(P21) and weaning (PD) of 746 piglets, being 201Landrace, 136 Wessex-Saddleback and 409 crossbred were analysed by the least squares method. Estimates of heterosis and weight gains were obtained by a fixed model considering the effects of year and season at birth, litter order, sex and litter sizes, besides paternal and maternal breed effects. The effects were significant and the crossbred piglets were heavier than purebreds. Heterosis estimates were 2.6% for PO, 9.7% for P21 and 13.9% for PD, indicating higher no additive gene effects when the age of piglets increase or their dependence on maternal hability becomes less important. Interactions between maternal and paternal breeds were significant. The results indicate that crossbreeding these two breeds is useful for piglets production.

Os efeitos não genéticos tiveram influência significativa em quase todas as características. Os mestiços mostraram, em geral, pesos superiores aos puros, com estimativas de heterose de 2,6% para PO, 9,7% para P21 e 13,9% para PD, indicando a importância da herança não aditiva à medida que os leitões ficam menos dependentes de suas mães. Os efeitos de interação entre as raças paterna e materna foram cada vez maiores com o avançar da idade. Os resultados indicam haver ganho de produtividade coma utilização deste tipo de cruzamento.Universidade de São Paulo.
