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.

This work evaluated levels of digestible lysine on performance and carcass composition of barrows with high genetic potential for meat deposition. It was used 80 animals with initial body weight of 95.55 ± 1.04 kg, distributed in a completely randomized block design, with 5 diets (0.540; 0.642; 0.744; 0.846 and 0.948% of digestible lysine), eight replicates and two animals per experimental unit. The experimental diets and water were provided ad libitum throughout the experimental period. Digestible lysine levels did not […]

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of increasing levels of digestible methionine+cystine on performance and carcass composition of high genetic potential barrows for lean deposition. Sixty-four barrows with initial weight of 95.46 ± 1.09 kg were allotted to a completely randomized block design, with four levels of digestible methionine+cystine (0.427, 0.466, 0.504, and 0.545%, corresponding to the digestible methionine+cystine:digestible lysine ratios of 57.0, 62.0, 67.0 and 73.0%, respectively), with eight replicates, and two animals per experimental unit.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of digestible threonine levels on performance and carcass composition of barrows of high genetic potential for meat deposition. Eighty barrows with initial weight of 95.87 ± 1.26 kg were distributed in a randomized block design, with five treatments (0.470; 0.497; 0.528; 0.557; 0.587%, corresponding to digestible threonine:digestible lysine ratio of 58.0; 61.0; 65.0; 69.0 and 73.0%, respectively) with eight replications and two animals in each experimental unit. The experimental feeds […]
