Cinta Senese breed, as other local breeds, suffered a bottleneck during the last century which produced a high level of inbreeding with a reduction of the productive and above all reproductive performances; average inbreeding coefficient of the piglets born in 2003 was 0.14 (Gandini and Gallo, 2004).
