1. Correlations of visual scores, carcass traits, feed efficiency and retail product yield in Nellore cattle
The growing use of visual scores (VS) and ultrasound (US) for carcass evaluation in breeding programs, calls for a knowledge of the relationships between these traits and other relevant characteristics, such as feed efficiency and production of commercial cuts. The objective of this study was to evaluate correlations between body visual scores and carcass tr

2. Prediction of retail beef yield, trim fat and proportion of high-valued cuts in Nellore cattle using ultrasound live measurements
The objective of this study was to develop equations to predict retail product and fat trim (weights and percentages) for Nellore (Bos indicus) cattle. Live ultrasound measurements of the longissimus muscle area, backfat thickness at the 12th rib and rump fat depth and shrunk body weight were obtained from 218 Nellore steers to predict weights and percentage

3. Crescimento da pecuária de corte no Brasil: fatores econômicos e políticas setoriais / The growth of beef cattle sector in Brazil: economic factors and sector policies
This study aims to identify the factors which are responsible for the excellent performance of the beef cattle sector, taking its growth in Brazil and the increase of beef exports into account. The construction of a theoretical model which is capable to support the specification process of the econometric model used to quantify the impacts of the variations

4. Protein metabolism, body chemical composition, carcass traits and meat quality of Nellore steers (Bos indicus) as a function of their residual feed intake / Metabolismo protéico, composição corporal, características de carcaça e qualidade de carne de novilhos Nelore (Bos indicus) em função de seu consumo alimentar residual
Residual feed intake (RFI) is a feed efficiency trait that is independent of growth rate and mature weight. Genetic improvement in RFI may reduce the costs of feeding cattle, however a better understanding of biological processes underlying variation in RFI is necessary. Moreover, associations between RFI and carcass quality have been poorly investigated in

5. Dry and high moisture corn and calcium salts of fatty acids in diets for feedlot Nellore steers: performance, carcass traits and fatty acid profile / Milho grão seco, úmido e sais de cálcio de ácidos graxos em dietas para novilhos Nelore em confinamento: desempenho, características de carcaça e perfil de ácidos graxos
A maioria dos bovinos criados sob condições brasileiras normalmente sofre alguma restrição alimentar, que exerce efeitos negativos sobre o sistema de produção, implicando em perdas econômicas e de qualidade. Com o objetivo de reduzir esses problemas o confinamento de bovinos com dietas com alta percentagem de grãos é uma alternativa. No entanto, esp

6. Further Studies on Staphylococci in Meats, 12: III. Occurrence and Characteristics of Coagulase-positive Strains from a Variety of Nonfrozen Market Cuts
From 34 retail grocery stores and meat markets, 209 samples of nonfrozen meats were obtained and analyzed for coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus, employing six selective media. Sixty-seven (38.7%) of 173 samples obtained from 27 stores yielded S. aureus. No coagulase-positive S. aureus was isolated from 36 samples obtained from 7 of the stores. The 67
