Conteúdo: 	Data on 11505 animals of the Tabapua cattle breed, born from 1975 to 1995, in 71 herds distributed in six states of Brazil, were analyzed to study the effects of  environmental factors on'them  and to estimate the heritabilities of body weights at 205 (W205), 365 (W365) and 550 (W550) days of age. The mathematical model used in the  analyses of variance included the fixed  effects of sex, year and month  of birth, farm (herd) and age of the dam as a covariable, and the randon effects of sire. The variance components were estimated using the  least squares procedure. The estimated menas for  W205, W365 and W550 were 159.67+-1.06, 222.42 +- 1.48 and 285,39 +- 2.29kg, respectively. The males were, on the average, heavier than the females. The differences among years, mnths and fams were quite evident for three traits. The age of the dam at calving affected only W205 and W365, with maximum weights at 8.0 and 6.3 years, respectively. The heritability estimates and their  standard-errors were equal to 0,20 +- 0,03 (W205), 0,33 +- 0,03 (W365) and 0,24 +- 0,03 +- 0,03 (W550).
