Genetic Evaluation Weight, Carcass and Stayability in Nellore Females. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Traits related to growth, carcass quality and stayability are key components in enhancing the profitability and sustainability of Nelore cattle production systems. This study aimed to estimate heritabilities and genetic and environmental correlations for these traits using a Bayesian approach. Data from 94,703 females were analysed for weights

Proteomic identification of potential biomarkers for heat tolerance in Caracu beef cattle using high and low thermotolerant groups. [PDF]
Heat stress has deleterious effects on physiological and performance traits in livestock. Within this context, using tropically adapted cattle breeds in pure herds or terminal crossbreeding schemes to explore heterosis is attractive for increasing animal production in warmer climate regions.
