Genetic Analysis of Major Carcass Traits of Korean Hanwoo Males Raised for Thirty Months

Animals, 2021
Understanding animals’ genetic potential for carcass traits is the key to genetic improvements in any beef cattle. In this study, we investigated the genetic merits of carcass traits using Hanwoo males raised in a 30-month production system (PROD30).

Comparison of conventional BLUP and single-step genomic BLUP evaluations for yearling weight and carcass traits in Hanwoo beef cattle using single trait and multi-trait models.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Hanwoo, an important indigenous and popular breed of beef cattle in Korea, shows rapid growth and has high meat quality. Its yearling weight (YW) and carcass traits (backfat thickness, carcass weight- CW, eye muscle area, and marbling score) are ...

Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals the PLAG1 Gene for Knuckle, Biceps and Shank Weight in Simmental Beef Cattle. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Carcass traits of beef cattle have been genetically improved to increase yield of high quality meat. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a powerful method to identify genetic variants associated with carcass traits.

Multiple regression analysis on carcass traits of pig carcass.

Nihon Yoton Gakkaishi, 1990
豚枝肉出荷成績の最終的目標を「平均枝肉単価」に置き, 出荷時に得られる各指標を総合的に検討するために重回帰分析の適用を試み, 平均枝肉単価を規制する要因を分析し, 次の結果を得た。1. 平均枝肉単価を構成する要因としては出荷日上物単価, 上物率, 平均枝肉重量の標準偏差の3つが説明変数として有効である。2. これらの説明変数からなる重回帰式の自由度調整済決定係数(R2)は0.967, 回帰からの標準誤差 (Se) は0.963(円) である。3. これら3つの説明変数の平均枝肉単価に対する相対的な寄与の程度を標準回帰係数により求めると, その値の高いのは出荷日上物単価 (0.833) で, 次いで上物率 (0.439), 平均枝肉重量の標準偏差 (-0.158) の順となる。したがって ...

GWAS for Meat and Carcass Traits Using Imputed Sequence Level Genotypes in Pooled F2-Designs in Pigs

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
In order to gain insight into the genetic architecture of economically important traits in pigs and to derive suitable genetic markers to improve these traits in breeding programs, many studies have been conducted to map quantitative trait loci ...

Estimation of Relative Economic Weights of Hanwoo Carcass Traits Based on Carcass Market Price [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2012
The objective of this study was to estimate economic weights of Hanwoo carcass traits that can be used to build economic selection indexes for selection of seedstocks. Data from carcass measures for determining beef yield and quality grades were collected and provided by the Korean Institute for Animal Products Quality Evaluation (KAPE).

USDA yield grades and various carcass traits as predictors of carcass composition

Meat Science, 1985
Twenty-five carcasses from each of three breedtypes (Brahman, Angus and Brahman × Angus) were physically separated into fat, lean and bone. Several muscles from the round and the femur were used to derive equations to predict carcass composition and muscle-to-bone ratio. The femur (as a percentage of the carcass) was shown to predict percentage carcass

Selection for higher body weight in Nelore cattle is effective in achieving an increase of longissimus muscle area without reducing subcutaneous fat thickness

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2012
The objectives of this study were to estimate heritabilities and genetic and phenotypic correlations between carcass traits measured by ultrasound and other economically important traits generally used as selection criteria in beef cattle and to estimate

Sire breed effect on carcass and temperament traits

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2018
This paper aimed to identify and evaluate the effects of sire breed on temperament and productive traits of different cross-breeds between Nellore (NE), Tabapua (TB), and Brahman (BR) bulls mated with Angus cows (AN), as well as the relationship between ...
