[Method] The GHR mRNA expression levels in longissimus dorsal muscles of male Kazak sheep and Xinjiang fine wool sheep with different ages were quantitatively analyzed by real time PCR. [ Result] Sheep GHR mRNA expression level in longissimus dorsal muscle increased firstly followed by decline, and then kept steady until the end of the experiment, with the expression peak appearing on postnatal day 30. The GHR mRNA expression level of Kazak sheep was extremely lower than that of Xingjiang fine wool sheep from 2 to 90 days old ( P 〈0.01 ). E Conclusionl Both age and breed had great effects on the expression of muscular GHR gene in sheep.展开更多

[Method] With some 24-month-old males and females Tibet goats as experimental materials, a slaughter experiment was carried out to determine their slaughter performance, muscle quality and muscle nutritional components. [Result] The body weights of males and females before slaughter were (20.16±1.26) and (19.33±4.86) kg, respectively; the dressing percentages of males and females were (43.86±1.74)% and (44.08±5.46)%, respectively; the meat percentages were (32.43± 1.52)% and (32.72±3.97)%, respectively; and the meat production rates of carcass were (73.28±0.09)% and (73.16±0.85)%, respectively. There were less differences in carcass measurements, carcass segmentation, muscle quality, muscle fiber charac- teristics, muscle nutritional components, muscle mineral contents and heavy metal contents between males and females, while eye muscle area and hind leg meat weight of males were significantly higher than those of females. In muscles of males and females, 18 amino acids were detected totally, EAA/TAA values were (39.23±0.24)% and (38.70±0.15)%, respectively, and EAA/NEAA values were (64.73± 0.65)% and (63.17±0.41)%, respectively. [Conclusion] This study lays a foundation for overall understanding of germplasm characteristics of Tibetan goats.展开更多

[Method] Three male and three female goats of twelve-month-old Danba goat were selected to slaughter,and their slaughter performance, muscle qulity and mus- cle nutrients were determined. [Result] The pre-slaughter weights, dressing percent- ages, meat percentages and carcass meat production rates of the male and female Danba goats were (25.83±1.04) and (18.50±2.29) kg, (45.18±0.78)% and (38.89± 2.08)%, (33.76±1.4)% and (28.59±1.99)%, and (74.30±0.85)% and (74.08±0.65)%, respectively. The carcass length, carcass hind leg circumstance, carcass hind leg length, lumbar muscle thickness, hind leg meat yield, shoulder muscle yield and breast meat yield of male goats were significantly higher than those of female goats (P〈0.05), and no significant differenceswere found in other carcass size and carcass segmentation indices between male and female goats (P〉0.05). There were small differences in muscle fiber properties, muscle quality, muscle nutritional composition, muscle mineral content and muscle heavy metal content between male and female goats (P〈0.05). A total of 18 kinds of amino acids were detected in the male and female goats. The EAA/TAAs and EANNEAAs of male and female goats were (39.56±0.26)% and (39.48±0.66)%, and (65.45±0.71)% and (65.43±1.80)%, respec- tively. [Conclusion] This study will provide the basis for the understanding of the resource characteristics of Danba goat.展开更多

The results showed that the pre-slaughter body weights, dressing percentages, meat percentages and carcass meat production rates of male and female Tibetan goats were (14.33±1.53) and (12.50±2.18) kg, (42.11±5.26)% and (43.85±4.51)%, (31.34±3.36)% and (32.84±3.16)%, and (72.34±0.54)% and (72.30±0.78)%, respectively. There were smal differences in car-cass size, carcass segmentation, muscle fiber properties, muscle quality, muscle nu-tritional composition, muscle minerals contents and muscle heavy metals contents between male and female Tibetan goats. A total of 18 kinds of amino acids were detected in the muscle of male and female Tibetan goats. The EAA/TAA ratios and EAA/NEAA ratios of male and female Tibetan goats were (39.18±0.38)%and (38.70±0.72)%, and (64.31±1.03)% and (63.21±1.92)%, respectively.展开更多

[ Method] With real-time quan- titative PCR, the muscle IGF-I mRNA level was separately detected in two varieties of sheep at 2, 30, 60, 90 and 120 days old. Then the data was analyzed with SPSS software. [ Result] The IGF-I mRNA in sheep muscle first increased and then decreased with ages, peaking at 30 days old in Kazak sheep and at 60 days old in Xinjiang fine-wool sheep. The IGF-I expression level of Kazak sheep had no significant difference with Xinjiang fine-wool sheep at 2 or 90 days old ( P 〉0.05), but was lower than that of the latter with extremely significant difference ( P 〈0.01 ) from 30 to 60 days old. [ Conclusion] The male Kazak sheep and Xinjiang fine-wool sheep have similar model of developmental changes of muscular IGF-I mRNA, but the expression level is different between these two species.展开更多
