With a view to establish morphological differences between the muscles of pig, buffalo, sheep, goat and poultry, longissimus dorsi were examined. The average fibre cross-sectional area, average fibre diameter, number of fibres per unit area, fascicle size and number of fascicles per unit area have been studied. The size of the muscle fibres showed a decrease in the following order: pig, buffalo, sheep, goat and poultry. In poultry the muscle fibres were thinner and the fibre density values were greater in comparison to other species. The fibres were the coarsest in the pig. A slight difference in the fascicle size between the different species could be appreciated, the pig fascicles being generally large.
为了确定猪、水牛、绵羊、山羊和家禽肌肉之间的形态差异，对背最长肌进行了检查。研究了平均纤维横截面积、平均纤维直径、单位面积纤维数量、肌束大小和单位面积肌束数量。肌肉纤维大小按以下顺序递减：猪、水牛、绵羊、山羊和家禽。与其他物种相比，家禽的肌肉纤维更细，纤维密度值更大。猪的纤维最粗。不同物种之间肌束大小存在细微差异，可以看出猪的肌束通常较大。
