Breed effect on quality veal production in mountain areas: Emphasis on meat
(Elsevier, 2012)
This study was designed to compare the quality of veal produced from ‘Tudanca x Charolais’ cross (n=6) and Limousin (n=6) breeds when allowed to feed freely on mountain pastures and suckle naturally from birth to 7 months ...
Evaluation of wheat or corn dried distillers' grains with solubles on performance and carcass characteristics of feedlot steers
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2010-06)
[EN]A study was conducted on crossbred steers (n=275; 376±924 kg) to evaluate performance and carcass quality of cattle fed wheat or corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS). The control ration contained 86.6% ...

(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2010-03)
[EN]Forty feedlot steers were fed a barleygrain-based finishing diet typical for western Canada, with two levels of supplementary vitamin E (468 or 1068 IU head_1 d_1) and the effect on backfat trans-18:1 isomeric profile ...
Association analyses of DNA polymorphisms in bovine SREBP-1, LXRα,FADS1 genes with fatty acid composition in Canadian commercial crossbred beef steers
(Elsevier, 2013-03)
Two previously reported DNA polymorphisms of sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1 (SREBP1) and liver X receptor alpha (LXRα) and two DNA

Length of concentrate finishing affects the fatty acid composition of grass-fed andgenetically lean beef: an emphasis on trans-18:1 and conjugated linoleic acid profiles
(2011)
Intensively finishing cattle on a high-grain diet is generally used to enhance marbling, whereas extensively finishing on grass is
known to provide improved muscle fatty acid profiles. The objective of this study was to ...
