Estimação de fatores de correção do perímetro escrotal para idade e peso corporal em touros jovens da raça Nelore

Neste trabalho foram estudados os efeitos de idade e peso sobre o perímetro escrotal (PE) de touros jovens da raça Nelore e estimados os fatores de correção (FC) do PE para esses efeitos. As informações utilizadas pertencem aos Registros de Produção da Associação Paraguaia dos Criadores de Nelore, obtidos entre 1986 e 1997, de 110 criatórios, totalizando 7458 observações. Os coeficientes de regressão que permitiram o cálculo dos FCs para o PE foram estimados pelo método dos quadrados mínimos, empregando-se um modelo que considerou o grupo contemporâneo (animais nascidos no mesmo ano, estação, rebanho, avaliados na mesma data e do mesmo grupo de manejo alimentar na desmama e no sobreano), o efeito linear da idade em dias e os efeitos linear e quadrático do peso aos 570 dias de idade (P570). O efeito da idade sobre o PE foi igual a 0,0383(±0,0024) cm/dia e do P570 sobre o PE corrigido para essa idade, 0,0708(±0,0049) cm/kg, efeito linear, e -0,0000413(±0,0000074) cm/kg², efeito quadrático. A idade e o peso do animal foram importantes fontes de variação a serem removidas do PE, como indicativo da precocidade sexual de touros de sobreano.

Avaliação de fatores de ambiente e estimativas de parâmetros genéticos para a característica dias para o parto na raça Nelore

Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)

Falha na primeira mamada em bezerros Guzerá: fatores predisponentes e parâmetros genéticos

Em decorrência da elevada ocorrência (18%) de bezerros Guzerá que não mamaram por conta própria em suas mães (falha na primeira mamada), foram avaliados os fatores associados a estas falhas, sua influência na mortalidade e parâmetros genéticos para falha na primeira mamada (FPM). Dos 1.527 bezerros Guzerá nascidos de 1992 a 2004, 279 apresentaram FPM. Os efeitos fixos foram estudados utilizando o procedimento GENMOD-SAS com função de ligação probit. Parâmetros genéticos para FPM foram estimados por máxima verossimilhança restrita aproximada, ajustando modelo animal que incluiu efeitos genéticos diretos e maternos e de ambiente permanente da vaca. Verificou-se que os principais fatores predisponentes à FPM foram vacas com problema de úbere e tetos e bezerros pesando menos de 25 kg ao nascimento. FPM influenciou a mortalidade, com maior chance de óbitos para bezerros que falharam em comparação aos que mamaram naturalmente. A estimativa de herdabilidade do efeito materno foi baixa (0,08) e a referente ao efeito direto, nula. A estimativa de repetibilidade também foi baixa (0,17). Devido ao impacto de FPM na mortalidade de bezerros, sugere-se que a avaliação da conformação do aparelho mamário seja utilizada como um indicador para minimizar o problema. Entretanto, a baixa magnitude da estimativa de herdabilidade indica que progresso genético mediante seleção contra FPM poderia ser obtido somente a longo prazo.
