The development of histomorphology structures of small intestine in pigs is affected by food consumptions. In the present study, twelve Muong indigenous pigs and nine Vietnamese wild boars were investigated to compare the morphology of small intestine. The tunica muscularis in duodenum of Muong indigenous pigs was significantly thicker than that in wild boars. In jejunum, the difference was observed in submucosa layer and the crypt depth. In the segment of ileum, the thickness of submucosa and inner mucosa layers of Muong indigenous pigs was significantly greater than that of the wild counterparts. Conversely, the villous height and the cript depth in the wild boars showed higher value. The ratio of villous height/crypt depth in duodenum and jejunum of Muong pigs was higher than that in wild boars but the contrary result was found in the ileum. The distribution of Goblet cells in duodenum of Muong indigenous pigs was 2.8 times more than that of Vietnamese wild boars. The results suggested that the difference in nutrient sources might be a factor to decipher the histomorphology structures of small intestine of pigs.
