Avaliação genética de características de escores visuais de bovinos da raça Nelore da desmama até a maturidade

Abstract: Os objetivos neste estudo foram estimar parâmetros genéticos das características categóricas musculosidade, estrutura física, aspectos raciais, conformação, ônfalo, pigmentação e sacro e predizer os valores genéticos utilizando-se a estatística bayesiana sob modelo animal de limiar, considerando diferentes idades de bovinos da raça Nelore. As informações de escores visuais foram obtidas nos anos de 2000 a 2005 de bovinos provenientes de 13 fazendas participantes do Programa Nelore Brasil. Nas análises bicaract… Show more

“…Negative regression coefficients for genetic value of daughters based on the dams phenotype were suggested by [41], [42], [47]. When negative, the covariance might make total heritability (h 2 T  = 0.39 for W120 and h 2 T  = 0.56 for W240) become smaller than the heritability for the direct additive effect (h 2 a = 0.43 for W120 and h 2 a = 0.61 for W240).…”

“…Prerequisites for accurate estimates of the genetic correlation between the direct additive and maternal effects have been proposed, like the need for a consistent data set [48] that also contains records from dams and grand-dams [47]. New techniques are necessary in order to explain, illustrate and make estimates more precise [49], [50], and reach teams are exploring this area.…”

“…Although rules exist for the judging of Zebu animals, cattle ranking in championships is a subjective trait like other traits used in beef cattle breeding programs in Brazil, e.g., visual scores of conformation, muscling, structure, and navel, among others (Van Melis et al, 2003;Faria et al, 2009;Boligon et al, 2012). For animals ranking in championships, competitions could be structured according to the level (or importance) of the event, i.e., there are more important competitions in which very good animals participate and the level can be considered high, or vice-versa.…”

“…Heritability estimates ranging from 0.07-0.24 for slaughter conformation, from 0.21-0.31 for precocity, and from 0.22-0.38 for muscling have been reported for Nellore animals at 15-18 months of age (Van Melis et al, 2003;Faria et al, 2009;Boligon et al, 2012). Faria et al (2009) estimated heritabilities of 0.21, 0.46, and 0.36 for scores of breed traits, sacral bone conformation, and naval conformation, respectively. Heritabilities estimated in the present study for TOP3 and TOP5 were lower than those reported for the scores de-E. A.…”

“…Como alternativa a avaliação visual tem sido utilizada. A atribuição de escores visuais tem como grande vantagem a avaliação de rebanhos sem a necessidade de contenção, o que torna o manejo menos estressante, ágil e barato, permite a identificação de animais precoces e com maior musculosidade (FARIA et al, 2009;YOKOO et al, 2009). No entanto, Cucco et al 2010 (KOOTS et al, 1994citado por CYRILLO et al, 2001 Dessa forma a popularização das DEPs de carcaça está sendo possível devido à utilização da tecnologia de ultrassonografia, que permite a avaliação do animal em uma idade jovem, não é invasiva ou destrutiva, possui boa acurácia e baixo custo.…”
