Author(s): GÓMEZ, J. F. M.; CÔNSOLO, N. R. B.; ANTONELO, D. S.; BELINE, M.; GAGAOUA, M.; HIGUERA-PADILLA, A.; COLNAGO, L. A.; GERRARD, D. E.; SILVA, S. L. The present study explored changes in the meat metabolome of animals subjected to Different finishing systems and growth rates. Thirty-six Angus × Nellore crossbred steers were used in a completely ra... ... |
Author(s): FÁVERO, R.; GOMES, R. da C.; MENEZES, G. R. de O.; MIZUBUTI, I. Y. The aim of this study was to assess the relationships between residual feed intake (RFI), performance, feeding behavior (FB) and body measures (BM) in Brahman cattle. Twenty-four Brahman young bulls w... ... |
Author(s): MERCADANTE, M. E. Z.; CALIMAN, A. P. de M.; CANESIN, R. C.; BONILHA, S. F. M.; BERNDT, A.; FRIGHETTO, R. T. S.; MAGNANI, E.; BRANCO, R. H. Residual feed intake (RFI) is an attractive measure of feed efficiency, as it does not depend on body size, growth rate, or body composition measures (Durunna et al., 2012). High-efficiency animals ex... ... |
Author(s): ROCHA, M. I. P.; SOUZA, M. M. de; DINIZ, W. J. S.; LIMA, A. O. de; AFONSO, J.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; OLIVEIRA, P. N. de; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; KOLTES, J. E.; NICIURA, S. C. M. The production cost of cattle is high, especially the fraction related to animal nutrition. The increase in feed efficiency may provide increased efficiency in beef production, minimizing feed expendi... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, P. S. N.; CESAR, A. S. M.; NASCIMENTO, M. L. do; CHAVES, A. S.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; TULLIO, R. R.; LANNA, D. P. D.; ROSA, A. do N.; SONSTEGARD, T. S.; MOURÃO, G. B.; REECY, J. M.; GARRICK, D. J.; MUDADU, M. de A.; COUTINHO, L. L.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Feed efficiency is jointly determined by productivity and feed requirements, both of which are economically relevant traits in beef cattle production systems. The objective of this study was to identi... ... |
Author(s): GOMES, R. da C.; SILVA, S. L.; CARVALHO, M. E.; REZENDE, F. M.; PINTO, L. F. B.; SANTANA, M. H. A.; STELLA, T. R.; MEIRELLES, F. V.; ROSSI JÚNIOR, P.; LEME, P. R.; FERRAZ, J. B. S. We looked for possible associations of SNPs in genes related to protein turnover, with growth, feed efficiency and carcass traits in feedlot Nellore cattle. Purebred Nellore bulls and steers (N = 290;... ... |
Author(s): MENEZES, G. R. de O.; GOMES, R. da C.; RIBAS, M. N.; TORRES JUNIOR, R. A. de A.; FERNANDES JUNIOR, J. A.; PEREIRA, G. M.; FAVERO, R.; SILVA, L. O. C. da The sustainability of beef production in the world demands the identification and selection of efficient animals that can produce more products with fewer inputs. Feed accounts for around 50-70% of va... ... |
Author(s): FAVERO, R.; ALTRAK, G.; MENEZES, G. R. de O.; GOMES, R. da C.; TORRES JUNIOR, R. A. de A.; PEREIRA, G. M.; KAZAMA, R.; MIZUBUTI, I. Y. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of sire breed on performance and feed efficiency in feedlot of crossbred cattle. Steers (n=74) and heifers (n=71) produced along two years by breeding... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; COUTINHO, L. L.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; CESAR, A. S. M.; OLIVEIRA, G. B. de; DINIZ, W, J. da S.; LIMA, A. O. de; REECY, J. M.; MOURÃO, G. B.; ZERLOTINI NETO, A.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Residual Feed Intake (RFI) is an economically relevant trait in beef cattle. Among the molecular regulatory mechanisms, microRNAs (miRNAs) are an important dimension in post-transcriptional regulation... ... |
Author(s): SANTANA, M. H. de A.; OLIVEIRA JUNIOR, G. A.; CESAR, A. S. M.; FREUA, M. C.; GOMES, R. da C.; SILVA, S. da L.; LEME, P. R.; FUKUMASU, H.; CARVALHO, M. E.; VENTURA, R. V.; COUTINHO, L. L.; KADARMIDEEN, H. N.; FERRAZ, J. B. S. The use of genome-wide association results combined with other genomic approaches may uncover genes and metabolic pathways related to complex traits. In this study, the phenotypic and genotypic data o... ... |
