Resumo: The aim of this study was to examine the behavioral, productive, reproductive and thermoregulatory performance of 3/4 and 7/8 Holstein/Gir (HG) dairy cows to identify which genetic composition suffers the least heat stress. A completely randomized design was adopted involving 20 multiparous, lactating crossbred cows from a dairy farm located in the municipality of Turvânia - GO, Brazil. During the experimental period, data on behavioral, productive, reproductive and thermoregulatory traits were collected every 15 days. Bioestat (5.0) statistical software was used for statistical analysis. The mean temperature-humidity index, ambient temperature and relative humidity obtained throughout the experimental period were 74.45, 30.51 ºC and 63.64%, respectively. In terms of reproductive performance, there was a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the genetic compositions for the time from calving to first service, with a longer period shown by the animals with greater Holstein breed genetic composition. Service period and calving interval differed significantly (p < 0.05) during the experimental period between the genetic compositions. A significant difference (p < 0.05) was also detected between the compositions for respiratory rate, with higher values observed in the animals with higher European genetic composition. Benezra thermal comfort index also differed significantly (p < 0.05), with the 7/8 HG animals showing a higher value. Lactating cows with a 7/8 HG genetic composition achieved better results in milk production, whereas those with 3/4 HG genetic composition showed superiority in milk fat composition and reproductive and thermoregulatory performance, indicating greater adaptation to the climatic conditions of the region.

Foi utilizado um delineamento inteiramente casualizados com 20 vacas mestiças, em lactação, multíparas, pertencentes à propriedade leiteira localizada no município de Turvânia, GO. Durante o período experimental, a cada 15 dias foram coletados dados das características comportamentais, produtivas, reprodutivas e termorreguladoras. Para a realização das análises estatísticas foi utilizado o programa estatístico Bioestat (5.0). Os valores médios obtidos durante todo o período experimental para índice de temperatura e umidade, temperatura ambiente e umidade relativa do ar foram 74,45, 30,51ºC e 63,64%, respectivamente. Quanto ao desempenho reprodutivo, houve diferença significativa (p < 0,05) entre as composições genéticas para o intervalo do parto ao primeiro serviço, observando valor maior para os animais com maior composição genética da raça Holandesa. Para as características período de serviço e intervalo de parto foram constatadas diferenças significativas (p < 0,05) durante o período experimental entre as composições genéticas. Foi encontrado diferença significativa (p < 0,05) entre as composições na característica de frequência respiratória, observando-se maior frequência para os animais com maior composição genética europeia. Foi observado diferença significativa (p < 0,05) na característica índice de conforto de Benezra, onde foi encontrado maior valor para a composição genética 7/8 HG. As vacas em lactação com composição genética 7/8 HG obtiveram melhores resultados na produção de leite, mas em contrapartida a composição genética 3/4 HG mostraram superioridade na composição de gordura do leite e no desempenho reprodutivo e termorregulador, evidenciando maior adaptação as condições climáticas da região.UEL2021-03-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisaapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/4037810.5433/1679-0359.2021v42n3p1245Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 42 No. 3 (2021); 1245-1258Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 42 n. 3 (2021); 1245-12581679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
