1. Impact of birth weight and daily weight gain during suckling on the weight gain of weaning piglets
RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito do peso dos leitões ao nascimento e do seu ganho de peso na maternidade sobre seu desempenho na fase de creche (21-61 dias de idade). Quinhentos e trinta e quatro leitões, provenientes de 55 primíparas, foram pesados ao nascimento, no desmame e na saída da creche. Os animais foram distribuídos em um delineamento inte

2. Additional feeding during late gestation improves initial litter weight of lactating sows exposed to high ambient temperature
ABSTRACT The present study investigated the impacts of additional feeding (AF; containing 16% excess feed than control diet in the last two weeks of gestation) during late gestation period and different backfat thickness (BFT) including low (<20 mm) and high (≥20 mm) backfat on reproductive performance, litter size, blood metabolites, hormonal profiles, co

3. Passive immune transfer, health, pre-weaning performance, and metabolism of dairy calves fed a colostrum supplement associated with medium-quality maternal colostrum
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate passive immunity transfer, health, performance, and metabolism of Holstein calves fed colostrum supplement associated with medium-quality colostrum. After birth, calves were blocked according to birth weight and date and distributed into the following treatments: high-quality colostrum (> 50 mg of Ig/mL; n

4. Dietary iron chelate for sows and effects on iron supplementation in piglets
Abstract: In order to evaluate iron chelate in diets for sows during gestation and lactation and its effects on iron supplementation for piglets, a total of 50 pregnant sows in the third parity order were distributed according to a randomized block design with two treatments: diet without iron chelate supplementation (n=20); diet supplemented with 0.15% of i

5. Genetic parameters, genetic trends, and principal component analysis for productive and reproductive traits of Guzera beef cattle
ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to estimate genetic parameters and genetic trends and perform principal component analysis for the following traits: body weight adjusted at 210 days of age (W210), one year (W365), and yearling or 450 days of age (W450); weight gain from birth to weaning or 210 days of age (WGBW), from weaning to 365 days of age (W

6. Effect of feeding heat-treated and unheated colostrum on immunoglobulin G absorption, health and performance of neonatal Holstein dairy calves
ABSTRACT. First colostrum is an important source of nutrients and immune factors which are necessary for calves in the first weeks of life. Despite these benefits, colostrum can also represent one of the earliest potential exposures of dairy calves to infectious agents which these patogens can act directly on growth and cause diseases such as scours or septi

7. Predicting breeding value of body weight at 6-month age using Artificial Neural Networks in Kermani sheep breed
ABSTRACT. The present study aimed to apply artificial neural networks to predict the breeding values of body weight in 6-month age of Kermani sheep. For this purpose, records of 867 lambs including lamb sex, dam age, birth weight, weaning weight, age at 3-month (3 months old), age at 6-month (6 months old) and body weight at 3 months of age were used. Firstl

8. Heritability estimation and genetic correlations for mature weight, visual scores, and growth traits in Nellore cattle
ABSTRACT This study was intended to estimate the genetic associations between growth traits and visual scores with possible changes in mature weight (MW) in 397,900 Nellore animals. A bi-character analysis was performed to estimate the (co)variances and genetic parameters for MW, which comprises the following traits: conformation, finishing precocity, muscul

9. Evaluation of some reproductive traits of Pelibuey ewes under humid tropical conditions of Mexico
ABSTRACT We evaluated the effect of some environmental factors on age at first lambing (AFL) and lambing to conception interval (LCI) of Pelibuey ewes under the humid tropical conditions of Mexico. Ewes grazed on Tanzania (Panicum maximum), Bermuda (Cynodon dactylon), and Brachiaria grass (Brachiaria humidicola) and received hay in the corral in the months o

10. UTILIZAÇÃO DE MODELOS DE REGRESSÃO ALEATÓRIA PARA OBTENÇÃO DE PARÂMETROS GENÉTICOS DE BOVINOS DA RAÇA TABAPUÃ
Resumo Este trabalho utilizou 28.643 registros de pesos, do nascimento aos 660 dias de idade, de 6.471 animais da raça Tabapuã para estimar componentes de variância, covariância e parâmetros genéticos, utilizando o modelo de regressão aleatória. Foi utilizado algoritmo de busca AIREML através do método da máxima verossimilhança restrita pelo prog

11. Características de carcaça e carne de novilhos Aberdeen Angus submetidos à castração cirúrgica ou imunológica
RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar as características de carcaça e carne de novilhos Aberdeen Angus castrados cirurgicamente em duas idades ou imunocastrados com dois protocolos. Foram utilizados 48 bezerros, monitorados a partir do nascimento e desmamados, com idade e peso médio inicial de seis meses e de 160±16,54kg, respectivamente. Os animais foram distribu

12. TERMINAÇÃO DE CORDEIROS, COM E SEM SUPLEMENTAÇÃO NA FASE DE CRIA, CONFINADOS OU SEMICONFINADOS EM Brachiaria brizantha DIFERIDA: PARASITISMO GASTRINTESTINAL E EFICIÊNCIA BIOECONÔMICA
Resumo Objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos da suplementação na fase de aleitamento sobre o desempenho ponderal, o grau de infecção por nematódeos gastrintestinais e a viabilidade econômica na terminação de cordeiros em confinamento ou semiconfinamento. Na fase de aleitamento, os cordeiros de seis lotes de 30 ovelhas foram pesados ao nascimento e ao desma
