O objetivo desse trabalho foi conhecer a variabilidade genética da calpaína e seu potencial como marcador molecular para programas de melhoramento genético, visando auxiliar na seleção de genótipos superiores para maciez de carne zebuína. Para tanto foram analisados 55 animais da raça Nelore, proveniente de outros projetos de pesquisa conduzidos pela equipe técnica do Laboratório de Genética do Instituto de Zootecnia de Nova Odessa. Os animais foram abatidos ao atingirem o acabamento de 4 mm de espessura de gordura e a amostra de carne foi coletada entre a 12ª e 13ª costelas no músculo Longissimus dorsi. A maciez de carne foi avaliada empregando-se a técnica de Warner Bratzler Shear Force em 0 e 14 dias de maturação. O DNA foi extraído a partir das amostras de carne, em seguida foi quantificado e diluído para ser amplificado por PCR. Três polimorfismos foram investigados pelas técnicas de PCR-RFLP e PCR- SSCP, localizados no exon 9, exon 14 e intron 17 do gene calpaína, sendo denominados CPN316, CAPN530, CAPN4751, respectivamente. Os resultados da análise de associação entre os dados de força de cisalhamento (FC) e marcadores moleculares revelaram efeito significativo apenas para o marcador CAPN4751. O alelo C, considerado favorável para maciez de carne, apresentou relação significativa (P>0,05) com valores menores de FC, sugerindo o seu emprego na seleção de genótipos superiores para maciez de carne de bovinos da raça Nelore

Aimed to study the relationship between scrotal temperature on semen quality by use of infrared thermography in Nelore bulls bred extensively. There were scrotal thermography and semen collection. Climatic data were collected by means of globe thermometer. The thermograms of the scrotum were obtained by digital infrared thermography. We carried out ejaculates through electroejaculation for analysis of quantitative and qualitative characteristics. For the data, we used analysis of variance and subsequently applied the Tukey test at 5%. (p <0.05) between animals for sperm vigor, sperm motility between animals and between crops, sperm concentration, total sperm and total viable sperm between groups, between harvests for the scrotum temperatures and climate data. It was concluded that the surface temperatures of the scrotum and climatic factors influence the quality of semen. Thermography is recommended as a complementary test in the evaluation of reproductive bulls.

This work aimed to evaluate the pregnancy rate and follicular diameter using EB or GnRH on the insertion of progesterone implant (D0) in lactating beef cows. Two groups were tested in two experiments. In Exp. 1 were used 61 Nelore cows divided into two groups: G-BE (n = 32) and G-GnRH (n = 29), on D0 was inserted P4 implant (CIDR ) and applied 2 mL of BE (G-BE) or 2.5 mL GnRH (G-GnRH). In D9 was performed ultrasonography (U.S.) to measure the diameter of the dominant follicle (DF) present in the ovary and the implant was removed, with concomitant administration of 2.5 mL of PGF2a and estradiol cypionate (ECP ) followed by calves removal. After 48 hours all the cows were inseminated and the calves returned. In Exp. 2 50 cows were used following the same protocol described above, but the pregnancy was assessed without performing ovarian US. There was no difference (p>0.05) in pregnancy rate between treatments, BE (55%) or GnRH (41%), but the follicular diameter was significantly higher (p<0.05) in pregnant cows treated with EB (10.7 mm vs. 8.5 mm) and in cows treated with GnRH there was no difference (p>0.05) between pregnant and no pregnant cows (11.6 mm vs. 10.2 mm). We concluded the use of GnRH on D0 did not improve the pregnancy rate in lactating beef cows and follicular diameter was greater (p <0.05) in pregnant cows compared to non-pregnant only in G-BE.

This work aimed to evaluate the influence of postpartum period (precocious - of 28 to 44 days and late - of 45 to 90 days) on the bovine pregnancy rate using fixed-time AI. For that, 678 cows were divided in two groups: precocious group (G-P, n=151) and late group (G-T, n=527). The animals received CIDR® + 2 mL of estradiol benzoate (BE) in the day zero (D0). After eight days (D8) the dispositive was removed and both groups received 2.5mL PGF2α, concurrent with PGF2α injection, they received either 1.5mL of eCG or temporary calf removal (RTB). In the next day (D9), the cows received 1 mL de BE and 24 hours later, the fixed-time AI was performed with Nelore bovine semen. The calves were returned to their mothers. The pregnancy rate was not different between the groups (p>0.05), G-P=40% and G-T=48%. The results indicate that females with less than 45 days of postpartum are able to hormone protocol of fixed-time IA.
