Intramuscular fat (IMF) has a large effect in the sensory properties of meat because it affects
tenderness, juiciness and flavour. A divergent selection experiment for IMF in longissimus …

Simple Summary Intramuscular fat content improves the juiciness, tenderness, and flavor of
meat, but it can also affect its nutritional quality. A divergent selection experiment for …

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and composition are relevant for the meat industry due to
