description <p>The aim of the study was to compare carcass composition and physicochemical and sensory attributes of breast and leg meat from native Mexican guajolote (<i>Meleagris g. gallopavo</i>) as influenced by sex. For this, slaughter weight and carcass characteristics of male (<span class="inline-formula"><i>n</i>=8</span>) and female (<span class="inline-formula"><i>n</i>=8</span>) guajolotes raised traditionally under extensive systems with similar housing and feeding conditions were recorded. Also, physical characteristics, proximate composition, the fatty acid profile, and sensory attributes were determined in breast and leg meat using standard procedures. The results showed that males had higher (<span class="inline-formula"><i>P</i><i>&lt;</i>0.001</span>) slaughter weight, hot and cold carcass weights, and dressing percentage, as well as carcass part weights, while females had higher (<span class="inline-formula"><i>P</i><i>&lt;</i>0.001</span>) abdominal fat weights than males. The lightness (<span class="inline-formula"><i>L</i><sup>*</sup></span>), yellowness (<span class="inline-formula"><i>b</i><sup>*</sup></span>), and drip loss values of breast meat, as well as redness (<span class="inline-formula"><i>a</i><sup>*</sup></span>) and water-holding capacity values of leg meat, were significantly (<span class="inline-formula"><i>P</i><i>&lt;</i>0.05</span>) influenced by sex.
