This work aims to evaluate the relationships between body measures of foals from birth to twelve months of age and mature animals of Mangalarga Marchador breed. Measures were body weight and measures of height, length, width, girth of animals. Corporal Index (CI), Meloscopic Index (MI), Dactilo-thoracic Index (DTI) and Weigth in Cannon Index (WCI) were used to evaluate the relationship between measures. The Eclectic System of Linear Proportions was used to evaluation the proportions between linear measures and head length. […]

This work was carried out to evaluate angular measures of foals, from birth to 12 months age, and mature animals of the Mangalarga Marchador horse. Eleven angular measures of 98 foals, 55 males and 43 females, were taken on the birth day and at each thirty days up to complete 12 months of age. Results of measures were submitted to analysis of variance and mathematical model included effects of sex, region, nutritional management, herd, month and year of birth. The […]

The objective of this research was to study three levels of pelleted citrus pulp (PCP) in substitution to corn in diets of growing fillies. Twenty-one purebred and crossbred Arabian fillies averaging 278+9.6 kg of initial live weight and 18 months of age were used. The animals were maintained in individual pens and were daily exercised. A completely randomized design with three treatments: basal diet (T1), 7.5% PCP (T2) and 15.0% PCP (T3) with seven replicates, and with the filly as […]
