The Situation of Beef Performance Recording Results 1998 Comité international pour le contrôle des performances en élevage International committee for animal recording Internationales komitee für leistungsprüfungen in der tierproduction The situation of beef performance recording Results 1998 September 2000 Preface In 1994 the International Committee for Animal Recording (ICAR) adopted recommendations for beef performance recording. A specialist Beef Performance Working Group was asked to carry out surveys periodically to give an idea of the level of activity and the systems of beef performance recording among the member organisations, and of the degree of acceptance of its recommendations. The first survey was published in November 1997 and gave an overview of world-wide beef recording activities. The present survey was designed in 1999 and included an updated questionnaire asking for more detailed information, especially with regard to performance averages and breed differences. Overall, at present, it is clear that the responses to the new parts of the questionnaire were relatively poor. Some of the organisations approached argued that performance averages are misleading because they mainly reflect production conditions rather than the genetic merit of the breed and we must agree, to a certain extent, with this point. For this reason and with the aim not to discriminate against any breed that may be reared in poorer production conditions, this report includes only information about the extent of beef recording in different recording schemes. However, compared with the previous survey we have paid more attention to different recording activities performed by each of the cattle breeds. The questionnaire was subdivided into six main parts, of which each one dealt with one of the six different types of beef performance recording schemes approved by ICAR (the appropriate ICAR recommendation is shown in the annex): • in test stations; • in suckler herds from birth to weaning; • in abattoirs; • at official sales; • in finishing herds from weaning. As well as member organisations of ICAR we also tried to include as many other countries as possible in order to show a representative picture. As the reader can certainly conclude from the figures, some of the important beef breeding regions are unfortunately still missing. One of the reasons for this might have been problems with data ownership, as in many of the well developed beef breeding countries performance data rests with private breed societies. For this reason the next survey which will be carried out in 2002 will be shortened and facilitated. Besides this we will try to involve world breed societies which might have better access to their member organisations. By doing this we hope to get more and better responses. The present report has been a joint service of the ICAR Beef Performance Working Group. I take the opportunity and thank all of my colleagues for their valuable help and support. The data collection and evaluation was executed by Laurent Journaux, Institut de l’Élévage, France. For taking over this laborious work I would like to thank Mr. Journaux in particular.

BMC Genetics (2018) 19:91 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12863-018-0678-8 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access A recessive lethal chondrodysplasia in a miniature zebu family results from an insertion affecting the chondroitin sulfat domain of aggrecan Ann-Kathrin Struck1, Claudia Dierks1, Marina Braun1, Maren Hellige2, Anna Wagner3, Bernd Oelmaier4, Andreas Beineke3, Julia Metzger1 and Ottmar Distl1* Abstract Background: Congenital skeletal malformations represent a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting bone and cartilage development. In cattle, particular chondrodysplastic forms have been identified in several miniature breeds. In this study, a phenotypic characterization was performed of an affected Miniature Zebu calf using computed tomography, necropsy and histopathological examinations, whole genome sequencing of the case and its parents on an Illumina NextSeq 500 in 2 × 150 bp paired-end mode and validation using Sanger sequencing and a Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR assay. Samples from the family of an affected Miniature Zebu with bulldog syndrome including parents and siblings, 42 healthy Miniature Zebu not related with members of the herd and 88 individuals from eight different taurine cattle breeds were available for validation. Results: A bulldog-like Miniature Zebu calf showing a large bulging head, a short and compressed body and extremely short and stocky limbs was delivered after a fetotomy. Computed tomography and necropsy revealed severe craniofacial abnormalities including a shortening of the ventral nasal conchae, a cleft hard palate, rotated limbs as well as malformed and fused vertebrae and ribs. Histopathologic examination showed a disorganization of the physeal cartilage with disorderly arranged chondrocytes in columns and a multifocal closed epiphyseal plate.

  • Different Beef Breed Cattle Fattening Results Analysis
    AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES (CROP SCIENCES, ANIMAL SCIENCES) DIFFERENT BEEF BREED CATTLE FATTENING RESULTS ANALYSIS Inga Muižniece, Daina Kairiša Latvia University of Agriculture [email protected] Abstract In Latvia, different breeds of beef cattle are grown; therefore, it is important to explain their suitability to organic farming systems, because most Latvian beef cattle breeders work with organic farming methods. The aim of this research was to compare fattening of different beef breed bulls (Bos Taurus) in organic farming system at similar housing and feeding conditions. In the research, there were included Blonde d’Aquitaine (BA), Hereford (HE), Simmental (SI) and crossbred (CB) bulls. Fattening period started after calf weaning from suckler cows at 7 – 8 months of age. Fattening results were significantly affected by factors like breed, live weight and age before fattening, but slaughter results were significantly affected by breed, live weight and age before slaughter. During the fattening period the biggest daily weight gain was showed for SI breed bulls (849 g), but the biggest live weight increase was recognized for BA breed bulls (295 kg). The required slaughter weight the fastest was reached for XG bulls, which average slaughter age was 532 days (p<0.05). The greatest slaughter weight – 342 kg (p<0.05) and dressing percentage (58% (p<0.05)) was recognized for BA breed bulls; also, carcass conformation score in muscle development was the highest for BA bulls (2.0 points (p<0.05)). The greatest economic benefit was from CB bulls, income calculated per one rearing day from CB bulls was - EUR 1.80. Key words: beef cattle breeds, bulls, growth and fattening.

Capoferri1, A. Galli2, M. Montedoro1 e G. Bongioni1 1 Istituto Sperimentale Italiano “L. Spallanzani” Rivolta d’Adda (Cremona), IT [email protected] 2 CREA Centro di ricerca Zootecnia e Acquacoltura (Lodi, IT) L’Italia grazie alla sua storia, alle sue tradizioni ed alla tipologia del territorio è un Paese particolarmente ricco di biodiversità: si contano oltre 200 razze zootecniche adattatesi nei secoli a produrre in ambienti diversificati per clima e vegetazione. La conservazione della biodiversità delle specie zootecniche è universalmente riconosciuta come una priorità importante, sia per aspetti ecologici, sociali e culturali, sia per il mantenimento del territorio, delle comunità rurali e delle tradizioni. La ricerca in ambito genetico-molecolare e le innovazioni tecnologiche possono essere un valido strumento a tutela della biodiversità. Oggetto di questo studio è stata la caratterizzazione di 20 razze bovine presenti in Italia, al fine di valutarne la diversità genetica tramite approccio molecolare, con l’utilizzo di un chip a 128 SNPs su piattaforma Open Array: 88 SNPs sono stati individuati nel pannello proposto per ISAG Bovine Comparison Test 2011 e, i restanti 40, nel database dbSNP dell’NCBI. Complessivamente sono stati analizzati 513 soggetti appartenenti alle 20 razze (25 campioni per razza) di seguito elencate: Bruna Alpina, Frisona, Valdostana Pezzata Rossa, Pezzata Rossa Italiana, Piemontese, Reggiana, Rendena, Grigia, Pinzgauer, Jersey, Valdostana Pezzata Nera, Charolaise, Marchigiana, Chianina, Limousine, Romagnola, Castana, Blue Belga, Montbeillarde, Blonde d’Aquitaine.
