A comprehensive review of the impact of tropical pasture grazing, nutritional
supplementation during feedlot finishing and fat metabolism-related genes on beef cattle …

The quality and value of the carcass in domestic meat animals are reflected in its protein and
fat content. Preadipocytes and adipocytes are important in establishing the overall fatness of …

Dairy cows mobilise body tissues to support milk production and, because glucose supplies
are limited, lipids are used preferentially for energy production. Lipogenic activity is switched …

Background Fatty acid composition has become an important trait in the beef industry in
terms of beef flavor and decreasing the circulating concentration of LDL cholesterol. In this …

Increasing productivity is one of the main objectives in animal production. Traditional
breeding methods have led to increased gains in some traits but gains are not easily …

Brown adipose tissue has a central role in thermogenesis to maintain body temperature
through energy dissipation in small mammals and has recently been verified to function in …

This study aimed to genotype the variants in FABP4, FASN, SCD, SREBP1 and TCAP
genes, and to analyze their associations with intramuscular fat (IMF) content, carcass traits …

Abstract Background Hanwoo (Korean cattle), which originated from natural crossbreeding
between taurine and zebu cattle, migrated to the Korean peninsula through North China …

Meat eating quality with a healthy composition hinges on intramuscular fat (IMF), fat melting
point (FMP), tenderness, juiciness, flavour and omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty …

Allelic and genotypic distribution of polymorphisms in diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1
(DGAT1), fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4), fatty acid synthase (FASN), and peroxisome …
