Correlations between body measures with live weight in young male goats
نویسندگان
چکیده
Data analysis in goat production, such as those related to body and scrotal measurements, indicate the productive reproductive animal development. The current study aimed evaluate correlations between thoracic perimeter (TP), length (BL), compacity (BC), volume (BV), circumference (SC) with weight (BW) young male goats of Saanen Boer breeds. It was used 38 24 goats, age average 7.2 ± 2.0 months. Thoracic measurements were obtained using a tape measure (cm) live (kg) mechanic scale. variables (BC) (BV) calculated equations: . breed showed higher than (p < 0.05). Regarding biometric weight, we did not find any statistical differences breeds > presented lowest association However, all highly significant 0.01). In conclusion, main predictor, considering efficiency practical aspects.

Phenotypic Correlations between Live Body Weight and Carcass Traits in Arbor Acre Breed of Broiler Chicken
This study was aimed at determining the relationship between live body weight and carcass traits in Arbor Acre broiler chicken. Fifty day-old broiler chicks were purchased and raised on deep litter system until 56 days of age. At maturity, ten birds were randomly selected for carcass evaluation. The analyzed data showed that live weight has statistically significant (P<0.01) positive phenotypic...

Objectives of this study were: (a) to compare live weight (LW) and zoometric measures (ZM) of local goats in two locations, (b) to fit the best regression equation for goat LW prediction using ZM. LW, body length (BL), trunk length (TL), withers height (WH), hearth girth (HG), rump width (RW), rump length (RL), head length (HL), head width (HW), and ear length (EL) were measured in 318 Local do...
متن کاملPositive correlation between the body weight of anestrous goats and their response to the male effect with sexually active bucks.
In the present study, we analyzed the results of two years of response to the male effect in seasonally anestrous goats to investigate whether the activation of female reproductive activity by the male effect is related to the body weight of the females. Seventy-nine adult female Mexican mixed breed goats were used. The anestrous females were exposed during 15 days to sexually active males, and...
