B.; QUEIROZ, S. A.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; GARCIA, J. F. Background- Nellore cattle play an important role in beef production in tropical systems and there is great interest in determining if genomic selection can contribute to accelerate genetic improvemen... ... |

M. de; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Brazilian Nellore cattle (Bos indicus) have been selected for growth traits for over more than four decades. In recent years, reproductive and meat quality traits have become more important because of... ... |

The objectives of this study were to characterize the allelic and genotypic frequencies of polymorphisms in the μ-calpain and calpastatin genes, and to assess their association with meat tenderne... ... |
Author(s): UTSUNOMIYA, Y. T.; CARMO, A. S.; NEVES, H. H. R.; CARVALHEIRO, R.; MATOS, M. C.; ZAVAREZ, L. B.; ITO, P. K. R. K.; O'BRIEN, A. M. P.; SOLKNER, J.; PORTO-NETO, L. R.; SCHENKEL, F. S.; McEWAN, J.; COLE, J. B.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; VAN TASSELL, C. P.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; GARCIA, J. F. The reproductive performance of bulls has a high impact on the beef cattle industry. Scrotal circumference (SC) is the most recorded reproductive trait in beef herds, and is used as a major selection... ... |
Author(s): BENETEL, G.; FAGUNDES, G. M.; MÉO FILHO, P. de; SILVA, T. dos S.; WELTER, K. C.; MELO, F. A.; LOBO, A. A. G.; FRIGHETTO, R. T. S.; BERNDT, A.; MUIR, J. P.; BUENO, I. C. da S. Abstract: Essential oils (EOs), as rumen additives, decreased CH4 emissions in in vitro trials but results from in vivo studies are still limited. We investigated the effects of Origanum vulgare (OEO)... ... |
Author(s): MERCADANTE, M. E. Z.; CALIMAN, A. P. de M.; CANESIN, R. C.; BONILHA, S. F. M.; BERNDT, A.; FRIGHETTO, R. T. S.; MAGNANI, E.; BRANCO, R. H. Residual feed intake (RFI) is an attractive measure of feed efficiency, as it does not depend on body size, growth rate, or body composition measures (Durunna et al., 2012). High-efficiency animals ex... ... |
