The global beef chain has been directed to meet the beef quality demands of the consumer market. Color and tenderness are generally considered the most important quality traits that impact consumer acceptability of fresh beef, which characterize two of the great meat quality limitations intrinsic to the Brazilian production system: dark-cutting and less tender beef. As a result, carcasses…
The world beef production chain has been directed to explore consumer demands, which are increasingly requiring product quality, variety, and safety. In this scenario, the Brazilian beef production has a challenge in focusing on competitivity and modernity, using technology as a way that leads to sustainability, ethics, and profit. However, there is a lack of information about the qualit…
The aim of this work is to correlate the muscle proteome with the meat quality from Angus x Nellore cattle finished in different finishing systems, weight gain rates and slaughter criteria. The experiment will be carried out using a randomized block design (initial live weight) in a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial arrangement, with two finishing systems (pasture and feedlot), two weight gain rates (h…

Foods labeled as "grain free" have gained increasing popularity among pet owners, which mainly happen due to the popular belief that traditional cereal grains are harmful to dogs and cats. In general, these foods are composed of high legumes levels, such as peas and lentils, in addition to potatoes. In recent years, many cases of Dogs with Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) caused by taurine de…
The cost of genotyping still being the main obstacle for research and implementation of genomic selection in several animal species in Brazil. Studies of genome-wide association are also dependent on government or private funding, and often have the number of animals reduced according to the cost of each genotyped animal in the experiments. This work aims to use the simulation technique t…
The cell wall digestibility is the main limiting factor of the nutritional value of forage. Thus, the use of additives which can promote the digestibility of the fiber is very important for ruminants. The aim of this research is to evaluate the effect of supplementation with live cultures of the fungus Aspergillus oryzae and fibrinolytic enzyme on gases production, methane emission and fi…

The aim of this work was to correlate the muscle proteome with the post-mortem metabolism and the meat quality from Angus x Nellore cattle finished in different finishing systems, weight gain rates and slaughter criteria. The experiment will be carried out using a randomized block design (initial live weight) in a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial arrangement, with two finishing systems (pasture and fe…
Using genomic information to increase accuracy of predicting breeding values is the new standard in animal breeding and genetics. Although genotyping livestock animals is becoming cheaper, it is still not affordable for some populations. One of the biggest challenges before the implementation of genomic selection is to decide which and how many animals should be genotyped. Given that the …
