Abstract

This study involved 45 Holstein and 60 Holstein-Charolaise steers, tailored with specific diets according to breed and rearing systems. DNA genotyping was conducted for DGAT1, LEP, SCD1, SREBF1, and TG genes to investigate their impact on carcass conformation traits, beef quality traits, and sensory quality traits. The results showed associations between the genetic variants and the analyzed traits. Specifically, DGAT1 was found to affect drip loss, meat brightness, and color saturation. The TG gene was associated with marbling and meat color. LEP influenced trim fat and pH levels, while SCD1 was linked to metabolic energy live weight gains, and pH levels. SREBF1 was related to fatness.
