Conformação de úbere de caprinos da raça Saanen: parâmetros estéticos ou funcionais?

Abstract:  RESUMODiversos fatores predisponentes são descritos para as afecções mamárias ou distúrbios secundários que comprometem a qualidade e produtividade de leite de fêmeas nas diferentes espécies. As características fenotípicas do úbere são consideradas na avaliação econômica de uma fêmea caprina, tanto pelo potencial de produção como pelo registro genealógico dessa fêmea. A limitação de estudos correlacionando essas características com a saúde do úbere gera a dúvida a respeito do significado da conformação do me… Show more

“…Although Santos et al (2015) found that the most of udder morphological traits in Saanen goats wass not related to the number of somatic cells in milk, the udder circumference was negatively correlated to the number of somatic cells, with a moderately high heritability of udder circumference, suggesting the possibility of including this trait in breeding programs. Montaldo and Martinez-Lozano (1993) examinedthree different goat genotypes and found that milk obtained from globular udder had a lower California Mastitis test value than milk obtained from udder of a different form.…”

“…Also, the authors indicated the existence of significant phenotypic correlation between the somatic cell count in milk and teat size, with shorter and narrower teats associated with a fewer somatic cells in milk of Saanen goat, which was not found in French Alpine goat (Rupp et al, 2011). Santos et al (2015) found no significant association of any of the studied morphological teat traits of Saanen goats with the somatic cell count in milk, as well as with the results of the California mastitis test.…”

“…More knowledge about the relationship between udder conformation characteristics and mastitis can be utilized in the design of breeding programs to improve milk ability and udder health. It seems important, though, to establish a correlation between udder conformation and IMI, allowing for the selection of higher mastitis resistance in dairy goats [12,13].…”
