Desenvolvimento dos componentes do peso vivo de cordeiros Santa Inês e Bergamácia abatidos em diferentes pesos

Abstract: RESUMOthe fat stores presented negative heterogonic growth (β<1). The omasum and rumen/reticulum of Santa Inês lambs growth early, while in Bergamácia lambs, it grows late. Liver, pancreas, abomasum, small intestine, large intestine and thoracic cavity in both breeds present early development and spleen, abdominal cavity, carcass integrant and non-integrant parts present isogonic growth in relation to the weight of the empty body.Key Words: allometry, growth, sheep IntroduçãoAs funções primárias do trato gastr… Show more

“…However, our results still suggest that those variations in maintenance requirements may be related with the linear decrease in the size of small intestine, which ranged from 50 to 36% of the total gastrointestinal tract weight for lambs slaughtered either at weaning or at 35 kg of SBW, respectively. In our study, proportion of liver was not affected by the slaughter weight, and it averaged 1.85% of EBW, similarly to results obtained by Pires et al (2000), Carvalho et al (2005), and Santos-Cruz et al (2009).…”

“…The relationship between empty body weight and shrunk body weight can be expressed by the following linear equation ( The shrunk body weight:empty body weight ratio, which indicates gastrointestinal tract content as a proportion of shrunk body weight, increased from 1.14 to lambs slaughtered at weaning, to 1.23 to animals slaughtered at more elevated body weights. Because the proportion of gastrointestinal tract content is directly related to the ruminal development, which is stimulated by the dry matter intake, mainly from fibrous foods (Baldwin et al, 2004), these results justify the highest carcass dressing percentages for lambs slaughtered immediately after weaning (Pérez et al, 2007;Santos et al, 2007).…”

“…In this regard, it should be emphasized that internal organs have an earlier development (Santos-Cruz et al, 2009) and so they represent higher relative values in younger animals as compared with the older ones, in which body development was more advanced.…”

“…Porém, elevada deposição de gordura não é desejável porque, além de aumentar os custos de produção, deprecia as carcaças e gera maiores quantidades de gorduras internas que não são aproveitadas para consumo humano (CAMILO et al, 2012). A gordura interna apresenta função de proteção dos órgãos internos do corpo e é usada como estratégia fisiológica frente à escassez de alimentos no período seco (SANTOS-CRUZ et al, 2009). O aporte de nutrientes afeta a percentagem de gordura omental (MUSHI et al, 2009).…”
