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 objectives of this study were to use a multibreed animal model to verify the presence of heterogeneity of genetic variance between Angus and Nelore breeds, to verify the importance of the variance due to the segregation between these two breeds and to estimate breed additive genetic effects on the dominance and additive × additive epistatic effects. It was used in this study 4,016 records of post weaning weight gain from Brangus breed foundation herd from Embrapa Pecuária Sul, analyzed […]
