Reproductive Characteristics of the Brahman and Brahman Based Bull
GENERAL REPRODUCTIVE TRAITS The Brahman is a Bos indicus breed which was developed in the Gulf Coast states of the United States (Phillips, 1963; Yturria, 1973). The adaptive traits which specifically suit the Brahman and Brahman based breeds for production in temperate, subtropical or tropical areas include: tolerance of internal and external parasites; tolerance of high solar energy, ambient ...
متن کاملSingle nucleotide polymorphisms associated with carcass traits in a population of Brahman and Brahman-influenced steers.
Brahman cattle are important in tropical regions due to their ability to tolerate excessive heat and parasites. However, Brahman cattle exhibit lower carcass quality characteristics when compared to Bos taurus breeds. The objective of this study was to evaluate potential associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in six candidate genes for carcass quality and composition traits...
متن کاملGenetic and environmental growth trait parameter estimates for Brahman and Brahman-derivative cattle.
Beefmaster, Brahman, Brangus, and Santa Gertrudis field data records were used to determine genetic and environmental parameter estimates using a multiple-trait, pseudo-expectation approach. Adjusted birth weight, 205-d weight, and postweaning gain records were analyzed for each breed. Also, Brangus weaning sheath and navel scores were both analyzed using a single-trait, pseudo-expectation meth...
متن کاملUtilizing Brahman Germplasm in Crossbreeding Systems
Greater than half of the cattle in the world are managed in tropical environments, while approximately 40% of beef cows in the United States are located in subtropical areas. Furthermore, approximately 80% of global beef production is Bos indicus based. Given this, Bos indicus germplasm plays a critical role in both US and worldwide beef production particularly when used as part of a well-struc...
متن کاملSelecting and Breeding the Unique Brahman
The American Brahman, unique in many ways, differs from cattle of European origin in form, physiology and genetic make-up. The Brahman is generally utilized to complement rather than compete with others breeds. Even though the same basic genetic principles operate for Brahmans as for any other breed, goals are different and the gene pool and distribution of the Brahman population is different. ...
