摘要: Abstract Studies that investigate the expression of genes related to tenderness meat from entire and immunocastrated male pigs have not yet been performed. The objective this study was association between gender (entire immunocastrated) quality pigs, as well quantify calpain-1 calpastatin gene. Regarding carcass measurements quality, boars presented lower values muscle depth (P = 0.028), subcutaneous fat thickness (P = 0.046), L* value (P = 0.004) cook loss (P = 0.008) than pigs. greater gene (P = 0.006) (P = 0.003) This shows combined with other factors can contribute a tender due their higher those
