Effect of production system on performance traits, carcass and meat quality in Brown Swiss young cattle
Performance, carcass and meat quality were assessed in 3 groups of Brown Swiss male calves, all of them suckled by their dams: groups M200 and M250 were exclusively milk-fed and slaughtered at 200 or 250 kg, respectively, and G400 group was supplemented with grain and slaughtered at 400 kg after a short finishing period. Increasing weight in milk-fed animals led to an increase in dressing perce...
متن کاملGrowth performance, carcass traits and meat quality of bulls and heifers slaughtered at different ages
The effects of sex and slaughter age on growth, feed intake, carcass composition and meat quality attributes of musculus longissimus lumborum were investigated in Charolais × Simmental bulls (n = 12) and heifers (n = 12) reared and finished under identical management conditions. The animals entered the experiment at similar age (251 days) and were slaughtered at 14 or 18 months of age. Bulls ga...
متن کاملGenetic association of growth traits with carcass and meat traits in Nellore cattle.
The aim of this study was to estimate genetic and phenotypic associations of growth traits with carcass and meat traits in Nellore cattle. Data from male and female animals were used for weaning weight (WW; N = 241,416), yearling weight (YW, N = 126,596), weight gain from weaning to yearling (GWY, N = 78,687), and yearling hip height (YHH, N = 90,720), respectively; 877 male animals were used f...
متن کاملFrequencies of candidate genes and associations with carcass and meat traits in Nellore and crossbred cattle
The objective of this work was to estimate allelic frequencies of the polymorphisms IGF2/MboII (G > T) of the insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) gene, DQ499531.1:g.134A > T of the pro‐melanin‐concentrating hormone (PMCH) gene, and DQ667048.1:g.3290G > T of the RAR‐related orphan receptor C (RORC) gene in beef cattle of different genetic groups, and to evaluate the associations between these po...
متن کاملA Meta-Analysis of Zilpaterol and Ractopamine Effects on Feedlot Performance, Carcass Traits and Shear Strength of Meat in Cattle
This study is a meta-analysis of the effects of the beta-agonists zilpaterol hydrochloride (ZH) and ractopamine hydrochloride (RAC) on feedlot performance, carcase characteristics of cattle and Warner Bratzler shear force (WBSF) of muscles. It was conducted to evaluate the effect of the use of these agents on beef production and meat quality and to provide data that would be useful in considera...
