Arthrogryposis in charolais cattle a study on gene penetrance [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 1976
SUMMARY SAP (Syndrome of Arthrogryposis and Palatoschisis) is a congenital abnormality affecting Charolais cattle and is conditioned by an autosomal recessive gene. Among pure Charolais animals in France the gene penetrance seems low while among Charolais crosses in Canada penetrance is almost complete. In a study of 3 case histories in Canada at least

Genetic parameters for growth in Charolais calves

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2008
Genetic parameters for birth weight (BW), weight at the beginning (WB), in the middle (WM), and at the end of grazing season (WE), as well as weight at the age of one year (WY) were estimated. Data were collected on 319 Charolais calves. The total number

A Diverse Pasture Grazing System Enhances Ewe and Lamb Performance Over a Three‐Year Grazing Study

open access: yesGrass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 3, July-September 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐output pasture‐based ruminant production systems in temperate regions are typically based on perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.; PRG) swards. Multispecies swards can improve animal performance; however, evidence from multi‐year, full‐system experiments remain limited.

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 602-612, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.
