Strategies for Managing Marbling in Beef Cattle
The objective of this paper is to review strategies that are known to enhance the level of marbling in beef. Research has demonstrated that marbling contributes significantly to beef’s eating quality—primarily to flavor and juiciness—but also to tenderness. Furthermore, a recent study showed that consumers are willing to pay 50% more for well-marbled USDA Prime grade steaks than for lesser-marb...

Commercial artificial insemination (AI) is arguably one of the greatest animal biotechnologies introduced in the 20 century. The benefits of improved genetics and reduced disease transmission have been readily recognized and accepted by the dairy producer, and at present, approximately 70% of the US dairy cattle population are bred by AI. Since the introduction of commercial AI in the early 194...

A commercially viable cattle embryo transfer (ET) industry was established during the early 1970s. Initially, techniques for recovering and transferring cattle embryos were exclusively surgical. However, by the late 1970s, most embryos were recovered and transferred nonsurgically. Successful cryopreservation of embryos was widespread by the early 1980s, followed by the introduction of embryo sp...

Estrous synchronization programs provide an organized and efficient approach to administering artificial insemination (AI) and the improvement of reproductive performance. Synchronization programs facilitate AI by altering the length of the estrous cycle and (or) through manipulation of follicular growth, thereby making the occurrence of estrus more predictable or allowing for appointment breed...
