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

Factors affecting growth performance in beef production: an on farm survey
This study aimed to investigate sources of variation of average daily gain in beef cattle, with an on farm approach, in the Veneto region. Data of 38707 animals fattened in 29 farms and belonging to 5 genotypes (Charolais, Charolais Female, French ...

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

Evaluation of temperament tests in beef steers
The aim of the study was to evaluate three times repetited measurements of the beef steers temperament using of the Scale Test (1–5 score from docile to wild) and the Flight Speed Test (the time taken to cover a set distance of 1.7 m after leaving the ...

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