Resumo: | Maternal nutrition during gestation has recently been associated with fetal formation and the productive potential of progeny in adult life. One efficient way to evaluate the nutritional status of the pregnant cow is by considering its body condition score (BCS). Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the BCS variation of the cow during gestation on the performance and post-slaughter characteristics of the progeny. Progenies were divided according to the performance of the cows: LOST, cows that lost 0.20 BCS points; KEPT, cows that maintained BCS; WON, cows that gained 0.23 BCS points in the final third of pregnancy. The experimental design used was completely randomized with three treatments. WON cows had higher weight and BCS at calving compared to LOST cows. The performance of the progeny was not influenced by the variation in the ECC of the cow during gestation (P>0.05). During feedlot finishing, LOST steers tended (P = 0.1013) to have higher dry matter intake than KEPT and WON (10.10 vs 9.75 and 9.24 kg day-1, respectively). WON steers were more efficient for RFI (Residual Feed Intake) and more productive for RWG (Residual Weight Gain) compared to LOST animals. Likewise, WON progeny tended to have greater subcutaneous fat deposition (P = 0.0826) and marbling (P = 0.0961) than LOST and KEPT steers. In this way, the accumulation of maternal body score during pregnancy demonstrates fulfilling the requirements for fetal growth, which favors the development and formation of superior animals. |

Uma das maneiras eficientes de avaliar o status nutricional da vaca gestante é através do escore de condição corporal (ECC). Desta forma, o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos da variação do ECC da vaca na gestação sobre o desempenho e características pós-abate da progênie. As progênies foram divididas conforme o desempenho das vacas: LOST, vacas que perderam 0,20 pontos de BCS; KEPT, vacas que mantiveram BCS; WON, vacas que ganharam 0,23 pontos de BCS no terço final de gestação. Foi avaliado o desempenho da progênie do nascimento até o abate, bem como as características da carcaça e carne dos animais. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi inteiramente casualizado com três tratamentos. Vacas WON apresentaram maior peso e ECC ao parto em relação às vacas LOST. O desempenho da progênie não foi influenciado pela variação do ECC da vaca na gestação (P>0.05), porém, apresentam comportamentos distintos entre as fases de crescimento. Durante a terminação em confinamento, novilhos LOST tenderam (P = 0.1013) a apresentar maior consumo de matéria seca em relação às progênies KEPT e WON (10.10 vs 9.75 e 9.24 kg dia-1, repectivamente). Novilhos WON foram mais eficientes para RFI (Residual Feed Intake) e mais produtivos para RWG (Residual Weight Gain) em relação aos animais LOST. Do mesmo modo, a progênie WON tendeu a apresentar maior deposição de gordura subcutânea (P = 0.0826) e de marmoreio (P = 0.0961) em relação aos novilhos LOST e KEPT. Desta forma, o acúmulo de escore corporal materno durante a gestação demonstra o atendimento das exigências para o crescimento fetal, aspecto que favorece o desenvolvimento e a formação de animais superiores.UEL2024-01-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/4842710.5433/1679-0359.2023v44n6p2163Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 44 No. 6 (2023); 2163-2178Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 44 n. 6 (2023); 2163-21781679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
