Robustness of Sound Speed and Jet Quenching for Gauge/Gravity Models of Hot QCD
, 2009 We probe the effectiveness and robustness of a simple gauge/gravity dual model of the QCD fireball that breaks conformal symmetry by constructing a family of similar geometries that solve the scalar/gravity equations of motion.

Nutrition Management Strategies for the Adaptation of Cull Beef Heifers to Feedlot
New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.Providing diets with high roughage in the first days of confinement is the common way of adapting beef cattle to intensive production. However, it is possible to offer the final finishing diet from the first day of adaptation. Our objective was to compare a traditional adaptation protocol, in which animals received a diet with a higher proportion of ...

Myostatin (GDF8) single nucleotide polymorphisms in Nellore cattle
Genetics and Molecular Research, 2009 The myostatin gene, also known as GDF8 (growth differentiation factor 8), is located on bovine chromosome 2 (BTA2); it has three exons and two introns. Myostatin is specifically expressed during embryonic development and in adult skeletal muscle, functioning as a negative regulatory protein.

Beef quality traits of Nellore, F1 Simmental × Nellore and F1 Angus × Nellore steers fed at the maintenance level or ad libitum with two concentrate levels in the diet [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2011 This trial was conducted to evaluate some beef quality attributes of Nellore, F1 Simmental × Nellore and F1 Angus × Nellore steers finished on feedlot. The effects of feeding regime and genetic group on shear force, thawing losses, cooking (leak + evaporation) losses, total losses and muscle fiber type, as well as carcass pH and temperature during 24 h

Dietary Bordão‐De‐Velho (Samanea tubulosa) Fruit Improves Grazing Beef Cattle Performance
New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.Integrated grass‐tree systems have been proposed to address socio‐ecological challenges in tropical cattle production. Bordão‐de‐velho (Samanea tubulosa), a legume tree native to the Amazon, is commonly found in degraded pastures and valued by farmers for its soil, forage, and livestock benefits.
