 Author(s): DIAS FILHO, M. B.; LOPES, M. J. dos S. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the challenges and evolution of cattle ranching in the Brazilian Amazon, including their historical beginning. Emphasis is placed on the role of Embrapa in ge... ... |
 Author(s): MACEDO, A. A.; BITTAR, J. F. F.; BASSI, P. B.; RONDA, J. B.; BITTAR, E. R.; PANETTO, J. C. do C.; ARAUJO, M. S. S.; SANTOS, R. L.; MARTINS-FILHO, O. A. Endogamy increases the risk of manifestation of deleterious recessive genes. Mitochondrial DNA allows the separation of American Zebu (Bos indicus and Bos taurus) and evaluate the effect of mitochondr... ... |
 Author(s): BUNGENSTAB, D. J.; GOMES, R. da C.; MEDEIROS, S. R. de; ALMEIDA, R. G. de; ROSCOE, R.; FERREIRA, A. D. Cattle ranching is a major agricultural activity in Central Brazil and it plays a major economic role in Mato Grosso do Sul State. In the last few years, local agricultural development has been influe... ... |
 Author(s): MOKRY, F. B.; LIMA, A. O.; MUDADU, M. A.; HIGA, R. H.; MEIRELLES, S. L. C.; SILVA, M. V. B.; CARDOSO, F. F.; NICIURA, S. C. M.; ALENCAR, M. M.; REGITANO, L. C. A. The aim in this study was to descriptively analyze haplotypes from a Canchim beef cattle population. |
 Author(s): DECKER, J. E.; MCKAY, S. D.; ROLF, M. M.; ALCALA, A. M.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; HANOTTE, O.; GOTHERSTROM, A.; SEABURY, C. M.; PRAHARANI, L.; BABAR, M. E.; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; YILDIZ, M. A.; HEATON, M. P.; LIU, W. S.; LEI, C. Z.; REECY, J. M.; SAIF-UR-REHMAN, M.; SCHNABEL, R. D.; TAYLOR, J. F. The domestication and development of cattle has considerably impacted human societies, but the histories of cattle breeds and populations have been poorly understood especially for African, Asian, and... ... |
 Author(s): MARTINS, T. R.; PÁDUA, J. T.; TAVEIRA, R. Z.; NOBRE, P. R. C.; SILVA, L. O. C. da; GONDO, A.; TORRES JUNIOR, R. A. de A.; MENEZES, G. R. de O. To provide information that can contribute to the genetic evaluation and selection of Senepol cattle, genetic parameters were estimated for growth traits. Birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW) and po... ... |
 Author(s): LIU, G. E.; LI, R. W.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; MATUKUMALLI, L. K.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; VAN TASSELL, C. P. We present a detailed breakpoint mapping and population frequency analysis of a 214-kb microdeletion that removes multiple olfactory receptor genes. Using progressive rounds of PCR assays, we mapped t... ... |
 Author(s): COLE, J. B.; SILVA, M. V. G. B. Abstract Genomic selection has been a valuable tool for increasing the rate of genetic improvement in purebred dairy cattle populations. However, there also are many large populations of crossbred dai... ... |
 Author(s): RIBEIRO, V. M. P.; MERLO, F. A.; GOUVEIA, G. C.; WINKELSTROTER, L. K.; ABREU, L. R. A.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; PANETTO, J. C. do C.; PAIVA, L. de C.; CEMBRANELLI, M. de A. R.; TORAL, F. L. B. The objective of this work was to determine whether the random regression model using linear splines (RRMLS) is suitable to estimate the genetic parameters for productive and reproductive traits of a... ... |
 Author(s): PACHECO, G. B.; NASCIMENTO, G. C.; PINHEIRO, R.; TEIXEIRA, R. B.; VERNEQUE, R. da S.; PANETTO, J. C. do C. An alternative to the adoption of 305-day milk yield during lactation to evaluate bovine genetics is the use of test-day milk yield (TDMY) information. This procedure has been used in the main cattle... ... |
