Prediction of carcass composition of lambs by joint dissection and carcass traits

TURKISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES, 2020
The aim of the study was to test the possibility of using carcass measurements and joint tissue composition to predict the half-carcass tissue composition of lambs more accurately. With this purpose in mind, 6 different carcass joints (neck, flank, shoulder, ribs, hind limb, and tail) from 42 Kıvırcık male lambs were dissected.

Estimation of genetic parameters and genome-wide association study for carcass traits in native chickens [PDF]

Animal Bioscience
Objective Global consumption for chicken meat is steadily increasing. Carcass traits (e.g., slaughter weight [SW], eviscerated weight [EW]) are important economic traits for the meat production in chickens.

The Association Between Genomic Heterozygosity and Carcass Merit in Cattle

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
The objective of the present study was to quantify the association between both pedigree and genome-based measures of global heterozygosity and carcass traits, and to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) exhibiting non-additive associations ...

Genome scan for postmortem carcass traits in Nellore cattle [PDF]

Journal of Animal Science, 2016
Abstract Carcass traits measured after slaughter are economically relevant traits in beef cattle. In general, the slaughter house payment system is based on HCW. Ribeye area (REA) is associated with the amount of the meat in the carcass, and a minimum of backfat thickness (BFT) is necessary to protect the carcass during cooling.

The Effects of Slaughter Age on Carcass Traits

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences, 1997
The aim of this study was to determine the slaughter age on the dressing percentage, carcass weight and carcass composition. Ross PM, hybrid broilers were slaughtered at 35, 42, 49, 56 and 63 days of age. Randomly selected 25-30 male and female broilers were slaughtered and, slaugheter weights, dressing percentage, abdominal fat, thigh percentage ...
