Differences in Beef Quality between Angus (Bos taurus taurus) and Nellore (Bos taurus indicus) Cattle through a Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Approach.
Rafael Torres de Souza Rodrigues,Mario Luiz Chizzotti,Camilo Elber Vital,Maria Cristina Baracat-Pereira,Edvaldo Barros,Karina Costa Busato,R. A. Gomes,Márcio Machado Ladeira,T. S. Martins +8 more
TL;DR: Differences in phosphorylated proteins involved in contraction and muscle organization, myofilaments expressed in fast or slow-twitch fibers and heat shock proteins localized in mitochondria or sarcoplasmic reticulum and involved in cell flux of calcium and apoptosis might be associated with differences in beef quality between Angus and Nellore.
Technical note: Estimating body weight and body composition of beef cattle trough digital image analysis.
R. A. Gomes,G. R. Monteiro,Gutierrez J.F. Assis,Karina Costa Busato,Márcio Machado Ladeira,Mario Luiz Chizzotti +5 more
TL;DR: This study indicates that digital images taken through a Microsoft Kinect system have the potential to be used as a tool to estimate body and carcass weight of beef cattle.

Macromineral requirements for growing Saanen goat kids
R. A. Gomes,D. Oliveira-Pascoa,Izabelle Auxiliadora Molina de Almeida Teixeira,A. N. de Medeiros,K. T. de Resende,Enrique Alejandro Yáñez,A. C. D. Ferreira +6 more
TL;DR: Differences were not observed between Ca, P and Mg net requirements in this study and those that were proposed by NRC, however Na and K net requirements for gain were lower than recommended by N RC indicating that for these minerals, this system may not be the most appropriate for the formulation of goat diets in tropical conditions.

Ultrasonographic measurements of kidney fat thickness and Longissimus muscle area in predicting body composition of pregnant goats
Carla J. Haerter,H. G. O. Silva,Lisiane Dorneles de Lima,D.S. Castagnino,A. R. Rivera,Oscar Boaventura Neto,R. A. Gomes,Júlio Carlos Canola,Kleber Tomás de Resende,Izabelle Auxiliadora Molina de Almeida Teixeira +9 more
TL;DR: This report is the first study using kidney fat thickness as a tool to predict fat depots in goats, and LMA, BW and KFT measurements will enable the development of models to aid in the monitoring of the nutritional status of goats during pregnancy.

Body composition, protein and energy efficiencies, and requirements for growth of F1 Boer × Saanen goat kids.
Izabelle Auxiliadora Molina de Almeida Teixeira,M. H. M. R. Fernandes,J. M. Pereira Filho,Roberta Carrilho Canesin,R. A. Gomes,Kleber Tomás de Resende +5 more
TL;DR: The protein and energy maintenance requirements in young crossbred goat kids are greater than values reported previously in feeding system studies and are driven by efficiencies of deposition.
