 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): 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): 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): 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): GOMES, H. F. B.; SOUZA, S. F. de; OLIVEIRA, D. de; BIAGIOLI, B.; TEIXEIRA, I. A. M. de A.; RESENDE, K. T. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of selective feeding habits on the quality of the ingested diet and the effect of feed restriction on the selectivity and behavior of goats in feedlo... ... |
 Author(s): SILVA, T. S. C.; MORO, G. V.; SILVA, T. B. A.; DAIRIKI, J. K.; CYRINO, J. E. P. Knowledge on apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) is necessary to maximize the feed efficiency, thus lessening dietary nutrient and energy losses. This study tasks the determination of apparent d... ... |
