  • Comparison of the growth of fat and lean tissue in young rams based on CT scanning
    Kupai, Tímea ; Lengyel, Attila
    Ten rams of Hungarian Merino, Suffolk and Texel (altogether 30 animals) were scanned by CT in three live weight categories to study tissue growth. The results of comparison showed breed effect in the ... volume of lean tissue at every live weight category, however, significant differences were not detected in the fat tissue volume, only at 5-7 kg category. Therefore the fatness of Hungarian Merino lambs is not unfavourable in this early life stage. At the same time Texel lambs have significantly higher meat yields than Suffolk and Hungarian Merino lambs. According to our observation the growth coefficients (b1) in the allometric equations for fat and lean tissue (which were 0.86-1.4 and 0.75-1.14, respectively) in Texel and Hungarian Merino rams were higher than that of Suffolk rams. Investigations will be extended up to mature size for describing tissue growth and development of lambs and detecting the divergency among the studied breeds. Moreover, further examinations with more animals are required to specify the exact growth patterns.
