  • Title: Relationship between androstenone content in fat, intensity of boar taint and size of accessory sex glands in boars.
    Author: Førland DM, Lundstrøm K, Andresen O.
    Journal: Nord Vet Med; 1980 May; 32(5):201-6. PubMed ID: 7383844.
    Abstract:
    Coefficients of correlation in the range of 0.6-0.8 were found between the size of the accessory sex glands and level of androstenone in subcutaneous fat. The length and weight of accessory sex glands combined in a multiple regression equation explained 64% of the variation in androstenone content. The correlation between boar taint intensity and size of accessory sex glands varied between 0.28 and 0.34.
