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): DINIZ, W. J. S.; ROSA, K. O. da; TIZIOTO, P. C.; MOURÃO, G. B.; OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; SOUZA, M. M. de; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Improving the efficiency of production to reduce the environmental footprints is pivotal to the sustainability of livestock systems. Despite the advances in cattle feed efficiency (FE) measurement and... ... |

The objectives of this study were: 1) to classify animals into groups of high and low feed efficiency using two feed efficiency indexes (Residual feed intake (RFI) and residual feed intake and body we... ... |
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): 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): 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): LIMA, A. O. de; KOLTES, J. E.; DINIZ, W. J. S.; OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; CESAR, A. S. M.; TIZIOTO, P. L.; AFONSO, J.; SOUZA, M. de S.; PETRINI, J.; ROCHA, M. I. P.; CARDOSO, T. F.; ZERLOTINI NETO, A.; COUTINHO, L. L.; MOURÃO, G. B.; REGITANO, L. C. de A. Feed efficiency helps to reduce environmental impacts from livestock production, improving beef cattle profitability. We identified potential biomarkers (hub genes) for feed efficiency, by applying co... ... |
