Abstract

Performance and carcass traits were studied on 48 male sheep from four genetic groups with 27 animals Santa Inês, ten Bergamasca, five from a cross with Texel sire and Santa Inês dams and six from a cross with a Bergamasca sire and Santa Inês dams. Animals were reared at pasture and in semi-confinement Mophological traits and carcass characteristics were studied Data were analyzed using the GLM procedure of SAS ®, as well as CORR , REG and means compared using Tukey (5%). The correlation between weights and carcass output was medium to high. Principal components showed that heavier animals at slaughter had higher carcass cut weights. The animals of the Bergamasca breed presented lower average for the cuttings appraised meats, while the genetic group Texel x Santa Inês presented higher medium value of corporal length, but the appraised variables as cernelha height and thoracic perimeter the breed Texel x Santa Inês didn’t present difference when compared with the other genotypes.

Key-words: Cuts, weight, revenue.
