What is Meat Quality Attributes of Male and Female Broilers from 4 Commercial Strains Processed for 2 Market Programs about?
In recent times, meat quality has become a key aspect of poultry production. In the current study, 2,400 sex separate broilers from 4 commercial strains were placed in 6 replications to evaluate various meat quality characteristics when grown to 2 market weights. Broilers were fed 1 of 2 diets with varying degrees of amino acid inclusion to evaluate meat quality of broiler raised on varying planes of nutrition. Birds were processed to meet 2 specified target weights (2.5 and 3.8 kg) representing small bird and big bird debone markets in the United States, respectively. Birds were processed using commercial methods, deboned at 3-h postmortem, and meat quality was assessed. Myopathies (woody breast, white striping, spaghetti meat, along with tenderloin quality), fillet dimensions, color, water-holding capacity (e.g., drip loss, cook loss), and Meullenet Owens Razor Shear was determined. Data were analyzed using the Mixed Model platform of JMP Pro 15.2 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC). Diet had no effect (__P__ > 0.05) on the key quality responses; data were then pooled resulting in main effects of sex, strain, and target weight (noted as carcass size). On the day of processing, high yieldin
