Genetic evaluation for the beef industry in Australia (2005, background): “…shear force and Meat Standards Australia consumer tenderness scores) have been recorded in the Beef CRC on pedigree recorded animals, along with a large number of flight time records (Burrow and Corbet 2000), a trait that has been shown to be genetically correlated with tenderness (Reverter et al .”
Productivity, carcass and meat quality of lot-fed Bos indicus cross steers grouped according to temperament (2002, background): “Flight speed is a heritable trait (Burrow and Corbet 2000), while other tests of cattle temperament tend to have low heritabilities and be very variable (Fordyce et al. 1982; Burrow 1997).”
Validity and feasibility of qualitative behavior assessment for the evaluation of Nellore cattle temperament (2013, background): “, 2011) when assessing cattle temperament, in addition to being moderately heritable (Burrow and Corbet, 2000; Sant’Anna et al., 2012).”
Assessing the human-animal relationship in farmed species: a critical review (2006, background): “Episodes of violent struggling (Veissier et al., 1989; Watts and Stookey, 2000) and the animals’ reactions (flight speed) when they exit the restraint apparatus have also been recorded (Burrow and Corbet, 2000).”
Genetics of flight time and other measures of temperament and their value as selection criteria for improving meat quality traits in tropically adapted breeds of beef cattle (2006, background): “Flight time is an objective, easy to assess, measure of temperament and has been recommended as the optimal test for inclusion in beef breeding programs (Burrow and Corbet 2000).”
Genetic and phenotypic characterisation of animal, carcass, and meat quality traits from temperate and tropically adapted beef breeds. 1. Animal measures (2003, background): “03 heritable and is in close agreement with estimates of Burrow et al. (1988) and Burrow and Corbet (2000).”
Genetics of fear in ruminant livestock (2005, background): “30 when fear of humans is measured by the agitation score in the chute (Burrow and Corbet, 2000).”
