Key result
Up to 100 days gestation, Peroneus longus had larger diameter secondary fibres than Longissimus thoracis (P<0.001), and myotubes decreased in diameter (P<0.001).
p-value: p=<0.001

Muscle fiber differences in early gestation are hypothesis-generating; leaves open muscle-specific myogenesis mechanisms for validation.
H. J. Swatland (2021) studied Muscle development in pigs. Muscle development (pre-natal and post-natal) was evaluated on Muscle fibre diameter and number (p=<0.001). Up to 100 days gestation, Peroneus longus had larger diameter secondary fibres than Longissimus thoracis (P<0.001), and myotubes decreased in diameter (P<0.001).
