Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Woody breast compromises meat quality leading to reduced consumer appeal. Although its causes are unclear, improvements observed with certain dietary supplements suggest that gut health may influence woody breast development. Ribonucleotide reductase subunit RRM2 is vital for mitochondrial function and gastrointestinal integrity, and alteration in its ...

Effect of Beef Carcass Composition on Carcass Conformation
Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 1990 牛枝肉の形状と枝肉を構成する組織との関係を黒毛和種2系統,ホルスタイン種,日本短角 種および交雑種の,合計122頭の去勢肥育牛を用いて検討した.各肥育牛は70-100kgの体重間隔で4段階にわたって屠殺し,左半丸枝肉について,23のサイズに関する測定値と筋肉,脂肪,骨および腱を含むその他の組織の各重量を求めた.サイズの測定値から求めた枝肉形状についての4つの主成分と23の枝肉測定値を従属変数とし,枝肉組織重量を独立変数として両者間の関係を,重回帰分析法により検討した.枝肉形状のうちのサイズを示す第1主成分と各組織との間には,いずれも高度に有意な関係が見られた.枝肉の薄さの因子である第2主成分は,骨が多く筋肉,脂肪の少ないものとの関係が大きかった.枝肉測定値に対する各組織の標準偏回帰係数から ...

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.
