This study was conducted to examine the comparison the quality of spermatozoa in four genetic groups of poultry (Pelung chicken, Nunukan chicken, Sentul chicken, and Bangkok chicken). The parameters of this study were the concentration of spermatozoa, motility, viability, semen volume, color, and consistency. The study was designed using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four local chicken nations and four replications. The results showed that the volume of Nunukan chicken semen was 0.32±0.01 mL/ejaculation, Bangkok chicken was 0.31±0.01 mL/ejaculate, Sentul chicken was 0.15±0.02 mL/ejaculate and Pelung chicken was 0.23±0.02 mL/ejaculation. the color of fresh semen is white (Pelung chicken, Nunukan chicken and Sentul chicken) except chicken Bangkok has the color of cream semen. Pelung chicken has a concentration of spermatozoa 5,043.33±51 million/mL, Nunukan chicken 3,250.22 ±45 million/mL, Sentul chicken 3,002.87±67 million/mL, and Bangkok chicken 3,002.87 ± 67 million/mL. Motility of Pelung chicken 84.,69 ± 1.12%, Bangkok chicken 82.35±1.85%, Nunukan chicken 77.74±1.57% and Sentul chicken 77.64±1.65%. Viability spermatozoa of Sentul chicken was 90.35 ± 1.21%, Bangkok chicken was 90.64 ± 1.16%, Pelung chicken was 89.17 ± 1.23% and Nunukan chicken was 86.29 ± 1.15%. It can be concluded that the motility spermatozoa of Pelung chicken and Bangkok chicken is better than the spermatozoa motility of Nunukan chicken and Sentul chicken. The viability of Sentul chicken and Bangkok chicken was higher compared to the viability semen of chicken Pelung and chicken Nunukan.

Two trials, each involving four Hereford and four Friesian steers, were finalized with the slaughtering of the animals and comparison of their carcass characteristics and meat quality. One trial involved hand-feeding the animals to achieve a constant liveweight gain of 0.68 kg/day from 6 months of age to slaughter at 15 months of age; the other trial used animals of the same age, but on ad libitum feeding. Carcass data substantiated the subjective observation that the Friesian carcasses were longer, less compact and displayed less desirable 'beef type' conformation than those of the Hereford. The dressing percentage of the Friesians was significantly (P < 0.01) lower than that of the Herefords. The Hereford carcasses had a significantly greater fat content than the Friesians, but lower percentages of both muscle and bone. The Hereford produced the greater yield of boneless retail meat (not fat trimmed), which could be attributed to their greater carcass fat and lower carcass bone content. The meat from both breeds was of equivalent palatability when assessed subjectively for tenderness, juiciness and flavour, and objectively for tenderness.

Abstract The objective of this study was to characterize the meat production potential of Morada Nova lambs from different genetic groups using morphological and zoometric data, performance and carcass characteristics. A total of 24 non-castrated male lambs from two genetic groups were used: Morada Nova red (MNR) and Morada Nova F1 red x Morada Nova white (MNF1) breed, with an initial mean body weight of 16.9 ± 3.43 kg and an average age of four months were distributed in a completely randomized design. Evaluations of morphometric data and zoom indices, performance and carcass characteristics were measured and calculated. Univariate and multivariate techniques were used to differentiate and reduce the number of variables, to group them and then develop and validate a sheep meat production index. Only 12 differences in the 29 morphometric measurements and zoometric indices analyzed were observed (P < 0.05). Furthermore, only 7 of the 28 quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the carcass were greater (P < 0.05) in MNF1 lambs. The yields of commercial cuts and the physical-chemical characteristics and qualitative measurements of the carcass were similar (P > 0.05) between the genetic groups. All groups of variables, except the cut yield, have discriminatory power (P < 0.05) with the highest classification percentages for body morphometry (91.3%) and zoometric indices (95.7%). The four identified factors, which together explain more than 85.0% of the total data variation, were renamed in the following order of importance: morpho-economic (38.5%), morpho-productive (18.8%), morpho-commercial (17.5%), and equilibrium (11.0%). The heat map showed the suitability in the morpho-commercial and morpho-economic factors for MNF1 lambs, while the MNR lambs showed emphasis for the equilibrium factor. Thus, the Sheep Meat Morphometric Index (SMMI) resulted in the following equation SMMI =\(\frac{\text{A}\text{I} \times 0.771 + \text{C}\text{H} \times 0.759 + \text{R}\text{H} \times 0.878 + \text{T}\text{P}\text{R}\text{I} \times 0.876 + \text{B}\text{I} \times 0.550 + \text{C}\text{W} \times 0.905}{100}\) In which: AI is the anamorphosis index; CH is chest height; RH is rump height; TPRI is the thoracic perimeter relation index; BI is body index; and CW is chest width. The application and validation of the developed index showed superiority (P < 0.001) for meat production in the crossed lambs. MNR and MNF1 lambs have high thoracic development, compact character and aptitude for meat production. Lambs crossed between genetic groups of the MN breed are another sustainable option for sheep production in drylands. It is recommended that the SMMI be used as a tool for morpho-productive selection criteria in breeding programs in the MN breed, as well as other small native breeds.
