The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

The objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters for body weights at weaning (PD), 12 months old (P12) and adult age (PAD), culling age (TPR, days in herd), number (ND10) and kilograms (QD10) of calves weaned up to ten years of age, total number (NDT) and total kilograms (QDT) of calves weaned during herd life, and kilograms of calves weaned per year in herd (QTPR) of Canchim (5/8 Charolais + 3/8 Zebu) females from one herd. Data consisted […]

The objective of this study was to estimate the heritabilities and the genetic correlations of body weight (BW12) and scrotal circumference (SC12) of males at twelve months of age and culling age (DH, days in herd) of females, and number (NW10) and kilograms (KW10) of weaned calves produced by females up to ten years of age, in a Canchim (5/8 Charolais + 3/8 Zebu) beef cattle herd. Data were composed of 1370, 826, 826, 2726 and 1051 observations of DH, […]
