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 aim of this experiment was to map QTL in chromosomes 5, 7 and 8 and to associate them to carcass traits, carcass cuts, meat quality, performance and internal organs of swines. An F2 offspring with 614 animals was produced from the matting of two Brazilian naturalized Piau boars with 18 commercial females (Landrace x Large White x Pietrain). The population was genotyped for 14 microsatellite markers covering chromosomes 5, 7 and 8. After that, it was built the linkage […]

The objective of this work was to map QTL on porcine chromosome 4 and associate them to performance traits. For this, a F2 pig population was established from a cross from the F1 generation, produced by crossing two naturalized Brazilian Piau sires and 18 commercial dams (Landrace × Large White × Piétrain). The population was genotyped for five microsatellite markers. The performance of traits evaluated in the population were: teat number, birth weight, weight at 21, 42, 63, 77 and […]
