| Summary: | .69, 3.00 [] .66, and 3.03 [] .70 kg, respectively. [] 7.50, respectively, and marbling score averaged 24.83 [] 2.19 cmz, 2.31 [] .51%, and 2.92 [] .56, 3.17 [] .34, 312.75 [] 32.31 kg, 77.11 [] 6.87 cmz, 35 d. The curability traits averaged 1.08 [] .37 cm, 365.94 [] 48.75. Warner-Bratzler shear force averages all steers and all aging periods was 3.16 [] .7 kg. analyzed in this study include mutability, quality, and tenderness traits. The curability traits evaluated area, longissimus muscle area 100 Kg of hot carcass area), ribeye area/100 kg of hot carcass weight, averaged 427 d of age at slaughter. The carcass traits born in the Spring of 1994 and the last calves were born in the Spring of 1998. Of the steers already Brahman bulls and 1 Nellore bull and out of Angus and Breed of dam differences were also evaluated. Angus dams produced steers with heavier hot carcass weights, dams. estimated internal fat percentage, and yield grade. evaluated were Wamer-Bratzler shear force values for for 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 d of postmortem aging grade. The quality traits of lean maturity and Hereford dams were evaluated. The first calves were Hereford, and 19 Nellore-Angus. The F[] steers higher skeletal maturity, and more marbling than hot carcass weight, longissimus muscle area (ribeye include actual fat thickness, preliminary yield grade, larger ribeye areas, more KPH, higher yield grades, maturity, and marbling score. The tenderness traits more external fat, higher preliminary yield grades, respectively, for actual fat thickness, preliminary skeletal maturity averaged 166.72 [] 14.93 and 156.81 slaughtered, 169 have been Brahman-Angus, 41 Brahman- steers produced in the same years out of Hereford The average Warner-Bratzler shear force value across The carcass traits of 229 F[] steers sired by 15 the postmortem aging periods of 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and The quality traits include lean maturity, skeletal weight, estimated internal fat percentage, and yield were 3.66 [] .84, 3.32 [] .72, 2.87 [] .63, 3.08 [] yield grade, hot carcass weight, longissimus muscle |
