Relationship between residual feed intake and enteric methane emission in Nellore cattle. 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... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
An integrative transcriptome analysis indicates regulatory mRNA-miRNA networks for residual feed intake in Nelore cattle. 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... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Performance, feeding behavior and body measures of Brahman cattle classified according to the residual feed intake. 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... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2016
Relationships between residual intake and gain, performance, feeding behavior and body measures in Brahman young bulls. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between residual intake and gain (RIG), performance, feeding behavior (FB) and body measures (BM) in Brahman cattle. Twenty-four Brahman young b... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2016
Potential regulatory elements on PCDH7 gene affecting residual feed intake in Nelore cattle. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2017
Residual feed intake and its effect on carcass and meat characteristics of feedlot Zebu cattle. The objective of this study was to evaluate the residual feed intake (RFI) and its relation with performance, carcass and meat characteristics of Zebu animals. A total of 40 Zebu steers with initial a... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2012
Global liver gene expression differences in Nelore steers with divergent residual feed intake phenotypes. Background: Efficiency of feed utilization is important for animal production because it can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve industry profitability. However, the genetic basis of feed util... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Relationships between residual feed intake and feedlot performance, profitability, and carcass traits in Brahman cattle. The present study aimed to evaluate the feedlot performance, profitability and carcass traits of Brahman bulls classified according to the residual feed intake (RFI). Twenty-four bulls (19-month old,... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Gene expression differences in Longissimus muscle of Nelore steers genetically divergent for residual feed intake. Residual feed intake (RFI), a measure of feed efficiency (FE), is defined as the difference between the observed and the predictable feed intake considering size and growth of the animal. It is extrem... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2016
Feed efficiency and meat quality of crossbred beef heifers classified according to residual feed intake. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
