 Author(s): MUDADO, M. de A.; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; SIQUEIRA, F.; ROSA, A. do N.; HIGA, R.; TIZIOTO, P. C. Cattle breeding programs often demand pedigree information to associate the herdability of genetic markers to animal performance, like milk and beef quality or disease predisposition. Paternity mistak... ... |
 Author(s): PFEIFER, L. F. M.; OLIVEIRA JÚNIOR, J. S.; SENEDA, M. M.; CAMARGO, H. S. de; MOROTTI, F.; ANDRADE, E. R.; MOREIRA, E. M.; ANDRADE, J. S.; SILVA, G. M. da; PORTO, M. O.; CAVALI, J. The objective of this work was to investigate whether puberty and parturition alter the antral follicle count (AFC) in female Nelore (Bos indicus) beef cattle. Two experiments were carried out to comp... ... |
 Author(s): SILVA, V. H. da; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; GEISTLINGER, L.; PÉRTILLE, F.; GIACHETTO, P. F.; BRASSALOTI, R. A.; MOROSINI, N. S.; ZIMMER, R.; COUTINHO, L. L. Brazil is one of the largest beef producers and exporters in the world with the Nelore breed representing the vast majority of Brazilian cattle (Bos taurus indicus). Despite the great adaptability of... ... |
 Author(s): TIZIOTO, P. C.; DECKER, J. E.; TAYLOR, J. F.; SCHNABEL, R. D.; MUDADU, M. de A.; MOURAO, G. B.; COUTINHO, L. L.; THOLON, P.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; ROSA, A. do N.; ALENCAR, M. M. de; TULLIO, R. R.; MEDEIROS, S. R. de; NASSU, R. T.; FEIJO, G. L. D.; SILVA, L. O. C. da; TORRES JUNIOR, R. A. de A.; SIQUEIRA, F.; HIGA, R. H.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Meat quality traits are economically important because they affect consumers' acceptance, which, in turn, influences the demand for beef. However, selection to improve meat quality is limited by the s... ... |
 Author(s): OLIVEIRA, P. P. A.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; MALAGO JUNIOR, W.; NASCIMENTO, M. L. do; CESAR, A. S. M.; DINIZ, W. J. da S.; SOUZA, M. M. de; LANNA, D. P. D.; TULLIO, R. R.; MOURAO, G. B.; MUDADU, M. de A.; COUTINHO, L. L.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Feed efficiency and carcass characteristics are late-measured traits. The detection of molecular markers associated with them can help breeding programs to select animals early in life, and to predict... ... |
 Author(s): CAMARGO JÚNIOR, R. N. C.; ARAÚJO, C. V. de; SILVA, W. C. da; ARAÚJO, S. I. de; LÔBO, R. B.; NAKABASHI, L. R. M.; CASTRO, L. M. de; MENEZES, F. L.; SILVA, A. G. M. e; SILVA, L. K. X.; SILVA, J. A. R. da; BARBOSA, A. V. C.; MARQUES, J. R. F.; LOURENÇO JÚNIOR, J. de Body weight records were used to characterize the growth curve of Nelore cattle. Body weight was regressed as a function of age, for both sexes, by using nonlinear models through the functions of Brod... ... |
 Author(s): OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; COUTINHO, L. L.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; CESAR, A. S. M.; OLIVEIRA, G. B. de; DINIZ, W, J. da S.; LIMA, A. O. de; REECY, J. M.; MOURÃO, G. B.; ZERLOTINI NETO, A.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Residual Feed Intake (RFI) is an economically relevant trait in beef cattle. Among the molecular regulatory mechanisms, microRNAs (miRNAs) are an important dimension in post-transcriptional regulation... ... |
 Author(s): BRUNES, L. C.; MAGNABOSCO, C. de U.; BALDI, F. S.; COSTA, M. F. O. e; QUEIROZ, L. C. R. de; LOBO, R. B.; GUIMARAES, N. C.; LOPES, F. B. The search for a more efficient beef cattle production system has led to the use of considerable number of traits as selection criteria. As such, the success of breeding programs relies on accurate es... ... |
 Author(s): AFONSO, J.; FORTES, M. R. S.; REVERTER, A.; DINIZ, W. J. da S.; CESAR, A. S. M.; LIMA, A. O. de; PETRINI, J.; SOUZA, M. de S.; COUTINHO, L. L.; MOURÃO, G. B.; ZERLOTINI NETO, A.; GROMBONI, C. F.; NOGUEIRA, A. R. A.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Mineral contents in bovine muscle can affect meat quality, growth, health, and reproductive traits. To better understand the genetic basis of this phenotype in Nelore (Bos indicus) cattle, we analysed... ... |
 Author(s): DINIZ, W. J. da S.; COUTINHO, L. L.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; CESAR, A. S. M.; GROMBONI, C. F.; NOGUEIRA, A. R. de A.; OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; SOUZA, M. M. de; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Iron (Fe) is an essential mineral for metabolism and plays a central role in a range of biochemical processes. Therefore, this study aimed to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and metabolic... ... |
