“…Previously, choices were made mostly based on the price of meat, income, and availability. More recently, consumers have made choices based on healthiness and sensory quality [41] and, most recently, on the sustainability of food [42]. As Maj et al [43] reported, rabbit meat is considered one of the lightest among meat production animals, and the colour intensity is very low.…”

Rabbits are important livestock animals, popular for their nutritional value. Nowadays, the molecular background of traits influencing the quality of meat and meat products is in high demand. Therefore, in the current study, we analyse the sequences of IGFBP1, IGFBP2, IGFBP4, IGFBP5, and IGFBP6 for possible polymorphisms. Based on a bioinformatics analysis in an association study on 466 animals of different breeds (New Zealand White × Flemish Giant crossbreed (9NZWxFG), Termond White (TW), Popielno White (PW), and Flemish Giant (FG)), we analyse the influence of five polymorphisms within the IGFBP genes. Statistically significant differences were found among the carcass and meat quality traits but not for all of the analysed rabbit breeds. The most promising polymorphism was g.158093018A>T within the IGFBP5 gene. The values of pH24 of m.longissimus lumborum (m.l.l.) and biceps femoris muscles (m.b.f.) were higher for the AT genotypes compared to the AA genotypes for the TW and NZWxFG crossbreeds. Also, for pH24, we found differences in ing.41594308T>C for NZWxFG, where the TT genotype values were higher than the TC values. We found differences in L*24 on m.l.l. for g.41592248A>C for NZWxFG. For m.b.f., significant differences were found in b*45 for g.3431insAC in the FG population and a*45 for g.41592248A>C and g.158093018A>T in the TW population. The shear force statistically differed for g.158093018A>T in TW rabbits and g.41592248A>C for NZWxFG. We conclude that this polymorphism may be promising for better quality rabbit meat and may be implemented in selection processes.

“…A produção de coelhos ou cunicultura é pouco difundida no Brasil se comparada a outras atividades produtivas, mas está em constante crescimento devido a excelente qualidade da carne, facilidades de manejo, alimentação, alta prolificidade, pesquisa e a cunicultura pet, usados como animais de estimação, que vem crescendo a passos largos (BONAMIGO et al, 2015). Há de se destacar também que a cunicultura voltada para animais de estimação, sua procura cresce anualmente, animais que podem ser encontrados no mercado online, petshops, casas agropecuárias, proporcionando uma produção de elevado valor agregado, na geração de renda para pequenos e novos produtores (HEKER, 2015;MACHADO, 2014).…”

Rabbit farming in Brazil is growing due to the quality of meat, ease of management, high prolificacy, and their use in research and as pets. However, studies on diagnostic imaging in rabbits are scarce. This study investigated the use of ultrasonography to assess abdominal organs and blood flow in 15 male rabbits, separated by weight. The results highlighted the uniform texture of the liver, which showed lower echogenicity than the right renal cortex, a hyperechoic wall of the gallbladder, and a fusiform shape of the spleen. Parameters such as size and location of the kidneys, bladder wall thickness, and adrenal gland measurements were evaluated. Doppler was used to analyze the aorta and renal artery, calculating Doppler velocity indices to assess hemodynamic function. This study contributes to understanding abdominal ultrasonography in rabbits, providing relevant information about the anatomy and hemodynamics of these organs.

“…Produzir carne de baixo custo, otimizando os recursos existentes a nível local é imprescindível para o sucesso criatório (BONAMIGO et al, 2017). Nesse viés, a cunicultura figura como atividade que, com baixos investimentos, faz-se lucrativa e de fácil integração com outras culturas, potencializando os recursos existentes nas propriedades (LUKEFAHR, 2004;SORDI et al, 2013).…”

The aim of this work was to study the performance of rabbits in the growth phase fed with commercial diets with and without elephant grass supplementation. For this, a biological assay was conducted with 18 White New Zealand rabbits with initial age of 58 days. The rabbits were randomly distributed in individual cages where they received feed and water ad libitum. The two groups studied were: CG -control group that received only commercial ration and EG group -that received commercial ration and elephant grass at will in the morning. During the biological test, animal weight, waste, leftovers and consumption were recorded weekly. The biological assay lasted for 28 days, and the animals aged 86 days. The performance measures of each phase were submitted to Analysis of Mean Variance (ANOVA). The animals in the CE group presented better performance when compared to CT in the growth stages I (58 to 65 days), termination I (72 to 78 days) and termination II (78 to 86 days). Thus, only during one of the four phases studied (65 to 72 days) did the animals show no difference in the performance parameters. It is still worth mentioning that at this stage there was a great waste of EG by animals. Based on the data obtained it was concluded that the use of elephant grass for rabbits as a complement to the feed is feasible. In this sense, the bulk in question tends to improve the feed conversion and the weight gain of the animals.
