Residual feed intake (RFI) as a measure of feed efficiency (FE) is an index that can help producers reduce costs by enabling the selection of more efficient and profitable cattle. However, the meat quality of these animals may be negatively impacted due to the lower subcutaneous fat deposition commonly observed in more efficient (low RFI) cattle. Traits such as tenderness, color, and juiciness may be affected by the reduced fat deposition, influencing consumers' purchasing decisions. Although low RFI cattle exhibit better FE in feedlot systems, few studies have described the molecular mechanisms regulating meat quality traits in these animals. Therefore, the objective of this project is to compare low RFI (efficient) and high RFI (inefficient) cattle finished in feedlots and to evaluate their meat quality in both physicochemical and molecular contexts. Comparing efficient and inefficient feedlot-finished cattle in terms of meat quality traits and identifying associations with the proteome of muscle tissue may contribute to a better understanding of the metabolic pathways that influence economically important characteristics in these animals.
