Figure 1. Adrenal size and morphometry in juvenile and adult pigs.

Figure 1

The ratios of adrenal weight:current weight (CW) and cortical:medullary area in low (L; ▪) and high (H; □) BW pigs at 3 and 12 months of age. At 3 months of age, adrenal:CW (P < 0.01) and cortex:medulla ratios (P < 0.05) in low BW pigs were significantly greater than in high BW pigs, as indicated by asterisks.
