1. Molecular identification of Ehrlichia sp. in a beef cattle from brazilian Cerrado - case report
RESUMO Infecções por Ehrlichia em bovinos são frequentes na África, mas também foram relatadas no Brasil e na América do Norte. Este artigo relata uma infecção natural por Ehrlichia sp. associado a Babesia bigemina e Anaplasma marginale em um bezerro, no município de Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil, o qual apresentava polioencefalomalácia.

2. Pre-TAI protocol strategies to increase reproductive efficiency in beef and dairy cows
Abstract Ovulation synchronization protocols are well established in beef and dairy cows. However, the protocol response rate is around 70-90%. In beef cows, factors such as inadequate nutrition and calf presence negatively impact the response of progesterone (P4)/estradiol-based ovulation synchronization protocols by interfering with GnRH release and conseq

3. Risks associated to different methods of increasing pregnancy rate of cows in cow-calf systems
ABSTRACT This study assessed the risks of different management practices to increase pregnancy rate in beef cow-calf systems, aiming at assisting decision-making. The perception of 18 experts on animal sciences regarding the risks of 32 nutritional, breeding, and general management practices applied to increase pregnancy rate were evaluated through questionn

4. Candidate mutations used to aid the prediction of genetic merit for female reproductive traits in tropical beef cattle
ABSTRACT In this study, we aimed to provide a wet laboratory validation for a set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), which had been identified as candidate functional variants in silico. Genotyping for candidate SNP was performed in Brahman and Tropical Composite cattle. After quality control, 29 SNP were first investigated individually for their asso

5. Factors affecting the selling prices of calves in auctions in Santa Catarina State, Brazil
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of genetic group and calf sex on selling prices in auctions in the state of Santa Catarina (SC), Brazil. We evaluated 33,143 animals, representing 3,587 lots in 47 auctions from 2009 to 2014. The calves were classified according to genetic groups: British breed or crossbreed (BX); Continenta

6. Supplementation with a mixture of whole rice bran and crude glycerin on metabolic responses and performance of primiparous beef cows
ABSTRACT - This study investigated the effect of a supplement containing whole rice bran and crude glycerin for 21 days before mating on metabolic, productive, and reproductive responses of 28 primiparous suckling beef cows. Cows were randomly assigned to a control group (CON, n = 14), grazing on grasslands, and a supplemented group (SUP, n = 14), grazing on

7. Models of protein and amino acid requirements for cattle
Protein supply and requirements by ruminants have been studied for more than a century. These studies led to the accumulation of lots of scientific information about digestion and metabolism of protein by ruminants as well as the characterization of the dietary protein in order to maximize animal performance. During the 1980s and 1990s, when computers became

8. Metabolic, productive and reproductive responses to postpartum short-term supplementation in primiparous beef cows
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a short-term supplementation with rice bran (2 kg/cows/day) on the endocrine and metabolic profiles and hepatic gene expression, associated with the reproductive response in beef cows in grazing conditions. Thirty-eight primiparous beef cows (Hereford, Angus and Hereford × Angus) were used in a rando

9. Unitary input DEA model to identify beef cattle production systems typologies
The cow-calf beef production sector in Brazil has a wide variety of operating systems. This suggests the identification and the characterization of homogeneous regions of production, with consequent implementation of actions to achieve its sustainability. In this paper we attempted to measure the performance of 21 livestock modal production systems, in their

10. Impact of nitrogen fertilization on the forage characteristics and beef calf performance on native pasture overseeded with ryegrass
The overseeding of ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam) on sub-tropical native pastures increases the availability and quality of forage in the cold season. However, soil chemical amendment and nitrogen use can affect the floristic composition, with consequences to the primary and secondary production. In a randomized complete block design with three replicatio

11. Breeding objectives and economic values for traits of low input family-based beef cattle production system in the State of Rio Grande do Sul
The objectives of this study were to define breeding objectives and derive economic weights for production traits in family-based beef cattle systems, assess the sensitivity of these weights to changes in market and husbandry indicators and estimate the expected genetic changes in the selection criteria proposed. Based on data from the production systems, fa

12. Influência do manejo mãe-cria na eficiência reprodutiva de primíparas de raças de corte / Influence of cow-calf management on reproductive efficiency of primiparous beef cows
A presente tese foi elaborada a partir de dois experimentos, um realizado nos Estados Unidos (durante dois anos consecutivos) e outro no Brasil, com o propósito de comparar os efeitos do desmame precoce com a remoção de bezerros por um curto período de tempo. O estudo relatado nesta tese focou na mensuração do desempenho de vacas de corte de primeira c
