[EN] Simple Summary Intramuscular fat content improves the juiciness, tenderness, and flavor of meat, but it can also affect its nutritional quality. A divergent selection experiment for intramuscular fat content was ...
Blasco Mateu, Agustín(Asociación Interprofesional para el Desarrollo Agrario, 2011)
[EN] The main statistical methods used in agricultural research for treatment comparison and for describing uncertainty about estimated parameters are reviewed. Since wrong interpretations of these
methods are common, ...
[EN] Simple Summary Two rabbit lines are divergently selected for increasing or decreasing the variability of litter size at birth. Decreasing the litter size variability produces more resilient females with less sensitivity ...
[EN] Intramuscular fat (IMF) has a large effect in the sensory properties of meat because affects tenderness, juiciness and flavour. A divergent selection experiment for IMF in Longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle was performed ...
