The objective of this study was to evaluate de relationship between biometric measurements
(BM) and carcass traits of 28 Pelibuey ewes. The BM were obtained the day before the …

Intramuscular fat content (IMF) is one of the most significant factors for meat quality affecting
tenderness, flavor, and juiciness of meat. For this reason, we aimed to investigate the …

Banana (Musa acuminata) by-products and other agricultural residues such as rice straw
and sugarcane top are abundant in the southern part of China, but most of them are wasted …

Quick and reliable methods to estimate body and carcass composition of beef cattle are
needed to predict the most profitable slaughter weight. This study evaluates body …
