Characteristics such as performance, carcass and meat quality are influenced by the proportion of fibers, adipocytes and fibroblasts that make up the animal's skeletal muscle tissue. During prenatal life, these cells develop by competitive processes, which are affected by the intrauterine environment through epigenetic changes. In this context, several studies have been carried out to und…
Historically, there are a tremendous lack of information involving the real management practices in the beef cattle industry in Brazil, especially during the cow-calf operation. Thus, there is a need for careful evaluation of the current outlook from the cow-calf operation in Brazil. The objective of this study will be providing an update of management practices in the area such as reprod…
The purpose of this proposal is to evaluate the effects of early weaning (150 days vs. 240 days) of calves from beef cows already pregnant on the fetal programming and on the performance of the next progeny. The calves from these pregnant cows will be monitored from birth to the time of slaughter (Exp. 1, males) or reproduction (Exp. 2, females). Evaluation of carcass quality and male mea…
The concept of fetal programming, initially proposed by Dr. David Barker, highlights the impact of prenatal conditions on subsequent health and productivity of offspring. This concept has been established through human studies and later extended to ruminant animals, affecting growth and productivity. Nutritional status during pregnancy can influence tissue development and metabolism in th…
In the NFREC-Repro laboratory (PI: Angela Gonella) at the University of Florida a new test to determine fetal sex using blood samples of the pregnant cow is being developed. This test is based on circulating free fetal DNA (cffDNA) and allows the identification of fetal gender with samples collected from 6 months of gestation. The main goal of the proposal is to develop a commercial cffDN…
