Análise Bayesiana da área de olho do lombo e da espessura de gordura obtidas por ultrassom e suas associações com outras características de importância econômica na raça Nelore

Abstract

Objetivou-se com esse trabalho estimar os parâmetros genéticos para as características área de olho de lombo (AOL), espessura de gordura subcutânea na costela (EG) e espessura de gordura na garupa (EGP8) obtidas por ultrassom, ao ano (A) e ao sobreano (S). Além disso, foram estimadas as correlações genéticas entre essas características de carcaça obtidas por ultrassom (CCUS), e dessas com outras características de importância econômica em bovinos de corte, como peso (PS), altura do posterior (ALT) e perímetro escrotal (PE450) ao sobreano, idade ao primeiro parto (IPP) e primeiro intervalo entre partos (PIEP). Os parâmetros genéticos foram estimados em análises multi-características pelo modelo animal, utilizando-se a inferência Bayesiana via algoritmo de Gibbs Sampling. As estimativas de herdabilidade a posteriori para as CCUS foram: 0,46 (AOL_A), 0,42 (EG_A), 0,60 (EGP8_A), 0,33 (AOL_S), 0,59 (EG_S) e 0,55 (EGP8_S), mostrando que se essas características forem utilizadas como critério de seleção, as mesmas devem responder rapidamente à seleção individual, sem causar antagonismo na seleção do PE450, PS (A e S) e IPP. A estimativa de herdabilidade a posteriori para as características IPP e PIEP foi de magnitude moderada a baixa, 0,26 e 0,11, respectivamente. A ALT apresentou correlação genética (rg) negativa com a EG_S (-0,38) e EGP8_S (-0,32), evidenciando que a seleção para animais mais altos pode levar a animais tardios em termos de terminação da carcaça. A seleção para melhorar as CCUS, o PIEP e o PE450 não afetará a IPP, contudo, animais mais pesados e mais altos tendem a ser mais precoces sexualmente (rg variou entre - 0,22 e -0,44). Com exceção da EG_S (rg=0,40), a seleção para as CCUS e as características de crescimento não afetará o PIEP, por resposta correlacionada.

The objective of this work was to estimate genetic parameters for the traits longissimus muscle area (LMA), backfat thickness (BF) and rump fat thickness (RF) measured by real time ultrasound at 12 (Y) and 18 (S) months of age. In addition, this study aimed estimate the genetic correlations between these carcass traits measured by real time ultrasound (CTUS), and those with other economically important traits in beef cattle, i.e., weight (W), hip height (HH) and scrotal circumference (SC450 ) at 18 months of age, age at first calving (AFC) and first calving interval (FCI). The genetic parameters were estimated in multi-trait analyses, with animal models, by Bayesian inference using the Gibbs Sampling algorithm. The heritability estimates for LMA (Y and S), BF (Y and S) and RF (Y and S) were 0.46 and 0.33, 0.42 and 0.59, and 0.60 and 0.55, respectively, showing that if these traits will used as selection criteria, they must respond quickly to individual selection, without causing antagonism in the selection of the SC450, W (Y and S) and AFC. The a posteriori heritability estimates for AFC and FCI were from moderate to low, 0.26 and 0.11, respectively. The HH showed negative genetic correlations (rg) with BF_S (-0.38) and RF_S (-0.32), suggesting that long term selection for taller animals would tend to produce animals with less subcutaneous fat, i.e. later-maturing in terms of carcass finishing. Selection to improve CTUS, FCI and SC450 will not affect the AFC, however, heavier and taller animals tend to be more sexually precocious (rg ranged between -0.22 and -0.44). Except for the BF_S (rg=0.40), the selection for the CTUS and growth traits will not affect the FCI, by correlated response.
