The marbling score assessed with Meat Standards Australia is heritable in Charolais cattle

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science
Marbling or visible intramuscular fat is a crucial indicator of beef eating quality. This study investigated the heritability of marbling score (MS), as defined by the Meat Standards Australia (MSA) grading scheme, in Charolais cattle, laying the groundwork for future breeding programs for improving this trait.

Assessment of muscle Longissimus thoracis et lumborum marbling by image analysis and relationships between meat quality parameters

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2018
The intramuscular fat (IMF), recognized by the consumer as marbling, is an important meat quality trait. The objective of this study was to validate a new method of beef marbling evaluation by image analysis. The new assessment was compared with two known marbling measurements: chemical IMF and USDA scores.
