Comparison of M.Semitendinosus Morphometry and Structure in Gilts and Barrows at Market Age

The aim of this paper was to investigate the differences in morphometric characteristics and histological structure of m. semitendinosus, between gilts and barrows of German Landrace breed at the end of the fattening period. Morphometric characteristics (weight, length, diameter and cross sectional...
