Prediction of Carcass Composition Using Carcass Grading Traits in Hanwoo Steers [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2015 The prediction of carcass composition in Hanwoo steers is very important for value-based marketing, and the improvement of prediction accuracy and precision can be achieved through the analyses of independent variables using a prediction equation with a sufficient dataset.

Effect of Carcass Traits on Carcass Prices of Holstein Steers in Korea [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 1970 The present study investigated the contribution of carcass traits on carcass prices of Holstein steers in Korea. Phenotypic data consisted of 76,814 slaughtered Holsteins (1 to 6 yrs) from all over Korea. The means for live body weight at slaughter (BWT), chilled carcass weight (CWT), dressing percentage (DP), quantity grade index (QGI), eye muscle ...

Genetic correlations between wool traits and carcass traits in Merino sheep [PDF]
Journal of Animal Science, 2017 Genetic correlations between 29 wool production and quality traits and 14 whole carcass measures and carcass component traits were estimated from the Information Nucleus of 8 flocks managed across a range of Australian sheep production environments and genetically linked.

Interactions Between Non-Allelic Loci and Their Effects on Categorized Meat Performance Traits in Ducks [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2020 Traits associated with meat performance are characterized by a complex inheritance model, including the effects of non-allelic interactions. The aim of this study was to estimate the significance of non-allelic interactions between pairs of loci in each ...

Carcass traits of four rabbit genotypes [PDF]
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2005 Seventy-three rabbits of four genotypes (A - SIKA maternal line; C - SIKA sire line; AxC - hybrids between line A and C; AxCal - crossbreds between line A and the Californian breed) were used to evaluate the effect of genotype on carcass traits. Rabbits were weaned at 35 days and slaughtered at 93 days of age.

Carcass and meat quality traits in Brangus steers
Translational Animal Science, 2023 Abstract The quality grade system used in the United States to identify carcasses with superior eating satisfaction to consumers is based on the amount of marbling within the ribeye and the maturity of the carcass. However, the most important quality attribute for consumers is tenderness.
