Resumo(s)
In Portugal, sheep and goat meat production accounts for 2.8% of the total
meat production in the country; and it is capable of supplying approximately
82% of the domestic demand (INE, 2015). Churra-Galega-Bragançana (CGB)
and Bordaleira-entre-Douro-e-Minho (BEDM) are two native breeds of the
north of Portugal, classified as endangered lamb breeds. These breeds are
exploited for meat production, the former in the Atlantic bio-region and the
latter in the Mediterranean area. Production factors, such as breed, have a
great influence on nutritional aspects related with the content and quality
of fat and fatty acid profile (Frank et al., 2016), which are considered important
quality indicators that have a great influence on consumer acceptability
(Andersen et al., 2005), especially nowadays as consumers have become
increasingly concerned about health and the relationship between meat
consumption and saturated fatty acids (Leroy and De Smet, 2019). These
autochthonous breeds constitute an important genetic heritage that must be
preserved, so assessing their fatty acid profile will allow a correct characterization
of these breeds and their products.
