Hereford, South Devon, Wagyu, Jersey and Limousin sires mated to Hereford dams. The aim was to investigate sire genotype and sex differences in triacylglycerol fatty acids in a grass-fed management system. Results indicated that sire genotype and sex were significant sources of variation in individual fatty acids and summations of their proportions, while the effects of sire genotype by sex interaction and sire nested within sire genotype were not significant. Limousin crosses had the highest proportion of 18:0 and total saturated fatty acids, but the lowest proportion of 16: 1 and total monounsaturated fatty acids. Jersey crosses had the highest percentage of 16: 1 while Wagyu crosses had the highest proportions of 18: ln-9 and total monounsaturated fatty acids. Total polyunsaturated fatty acids did not differ between genotypes. Heifers contained higher 16: 1, 18: ln-9 and total monounsaturated fatty acids but lower proportions of 18:O and total saturated fatty acids than steers. </p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Conference or Workshop Item (Paper)</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">In Proceedings 6th World Congress on Genetics Applied to Livestock Production, The University of New England, Armidale, Australia, vol. 25, 177-180.</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Genetic variation, fatty acids, triacylglycerols, adipose tissue, crossbred calves</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270200.html">270000 Biological Sciences > 270200 Genetics</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270207.html">270000 Biological Sciences > 270200 Genetics > 270207 Quantitative Genetics</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300401.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300400 Animal Production > 300401 Animal Breeding</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300400.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300400 Animal Production</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270100.html">270000 Biological Sciences > 270100 Biochemistry and Cell Biology</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2991</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Dr Aduli E.O.
