• Carcass characteristics and fatty acid profile of Santa Inês lamb fed banana leftovers 

      Menezes, Adriana Morato; Tanure, Candice Bergmann; Peripolli, Vanessa; Esteves, Geisa Isilda Ferreira; Kindlein, Líris; Louvandini, Helder; Souza, Jurandir Rodrigues de; Pimentel, Concepta Margaret McManus (2020) [Artigo de periódico]
      The use of new feed resources, particularly local agroindustrial byproducts, such as banana, may be an option for replacing those traditionally used for sheep feed to reduce production costs. Thus, the aim of this study ...
    • Effects of genetic group, pregnancy and age on carcass traits, meat quality and fatty acid profile in female sheep 

      Esteves, Geisa Isilda Ferreira; Peripolli, Vanessa; Costa Junior, João Batista Gonçalves; Tanure, Candice Bergmann; Menezes, Adriana Morato; Souza, Jurandir Rodrigues de; Kindlein, Líris; Bergmann, Guiomar Pedro; Louvandini, Helder; Pimentel, Concepta Margaret McManus (2019) [Artigo de periódico]
      Background: Little information is available on carcass quality in nulliparous and primiparous ewes of different breeds and genetic groups. Objective: To evaluate the effect of genetic group, pregnancy, age and their ...
    • Infrared thermography to evaluate heat tolerance in different genetic groups of lambs 

      Pimentel, Concepta Margaret McManus; Bianchini, Eliandra; Paim, Tiago do Prado; Lima, Flávia Gontijo de; Braccini Neto, José; Castanheira, Marlos; Esteves, Geisa Isilda Ferreira; Cardoso, Caio Cezar; Dalcinz, Vanessa Calderaro (2015) [Artigo de periódico]
      Heat stress is considered a limiting factor for sheep production. We used information from physiological characteristics linked to heat tolerance to determine whether infrared thermography temperatures were able to separate ...
    • Performance and carcass traits of Santa Inês lambs finished with different sources of forage 

      Menezes, Adriana Morato; Louvandini, Helder; Esteves, Geisa Isilda Ferreira; Dalcin, Luciana; Canozzi, Maria Eugênia Andrighetto; Barcellos, Julio Otavio Jardim; Pimentel, Concepta Margaret McManus (2013) [Artigo de periódico]
      The objective of this study was to evaluate performance and biometrics of lambs fed different sources of forage. Twenty-four six-month-old Santa Inês female lambs were randomly allocated to four experimental diets and ...
    • Production traits in F1 and F2 crosses with naturalized hair breed Santa Inês ewes 

      Silva, Alessandra Ferreira da; Pimentel, Concepta Margaret McManus; Paim, Tiago do Prado; Dallago, Bruno Stéfano Lima; Esteves, Geisa Isilda Ferreira; Louvandini, Helder; Braccini Neto, José; Lucci, Carolina Madeira (2014) [Artigo de periódico]
      The once bred ewe slaughter method proposes the use of female lamb to produce a lamb and then both are slaughtered, increasing income and high quality meat production. Thus, this study evaluated the growth and reproduction ...
