The present invention is directed to methods and systems for improving the efficiency of livestock production us-ing genetic information obtained from the animal. The methods of the invention comprise obtaining a genetic sample from an animal or embryo, determining the genotype of the animal or embryo with respect to specific quality traits, grouping animals with like genotypes, and optionally, further sub-grouping animals based on like phenotypes. The invention is further directed to a method of predicting the carcass quality of an animal by correlating the rate of change in carcass traits with the genotype of the an-imal.

La présente invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes destinés à améliorer le rendement de la production de bétail en utilisant des informations génétiques obtenues sur les animaux. Les procédés de la présente invention comprennent les étapes consistant à obtenir un échantillon génétique d'un animal ou d'un embryon, à déterminer le génotype de l'animal ou de l'embryon par rapport à des caractéristiques de qualité spécifiques, à regrouper les animaux ayant des génotypes similaires et, en option, à regrouper les animaux en sous-groupes en fonction de phénotypes similaires. La présente invention concerne, en outre, un procédé de prédiction de la qualité de la carcasse d'un animal en associant la vitesse d'évolution des caractéristiques de la carcasse au génotype de l'animal.
