  1. ABF: abdominal fat weight; ABFP: abdominal fat percentage; CFC: carcass fat content; CFCDM: carcass fat content on dry matter basis; CFWID: cingular fat width; FATDIS: fat distribution; SCFT: subcutaneous fat thickness (fat thickness under skin); SCNF: subcutaneous neck fat weight (subcutaneous neck adipose tissue); SFWT: skin fat weight; TWF: total white fat weight (total white adipose tissue); VISAT: visceral fat weight (visceral adipose tissue weight).
