Factors associated with suckling piglet average daily gain
Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2004Low piglet weight at weaning implies a loss of income for the farmer and might influence the welfare of the affected animals negatively. The objective of our cohort study was to identify risk factors in the farrowing section associated with average daily weight gain (ADG) of piglets from birth to weaning. The study was done in 3 Danish farrow-to-finish

A novel SNP of the Hesx1 gene in bovine and its associations with average daily gain
Molecular Biology Reports, 2008As an essential repressor, the homeobox gene Hesx1/HESX1 is required within the anterior neural plate for normal forebrain development. Mutations within the Hesx1 gene have been associated with GH deficiency or combined pituitary hormone deficiency. We detected the polymorphism of Hesx1 gene by PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing methods in 702 individuals ...

Prediction of average daily gain of swine based on machine learning
Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, 2018Understanding factors affecting growth rates in swine is important in the productivity of pig farms. We herein propose machine learning-based schemes to predict the average daily gain (ADG) of pig weight using temperature, humidity, feed intake, and the current weight of the pig.

Genetic analysis of average daily gain in Baluchi sheep
Meta Gene, 2017Abstract The objective of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters and genetic trends for average daily gain (growth rate) and to investigate the genetic effect of body weight at different ages (birth (BW), weaning (WW), 6 months (W6) and 9 months (W9)) on growth rate of Baluchi sheep.

Studies on average daily gains of sirohi goats in the breeding tract
Indian Journal of Small Ruminants (The), 2018Data on 6054 Sirohi kids of 112 sires born during 2004 to 2016 in farmers ’flocks under All India Coordinated Research Project on Goat Improvement, Vallabhnagar (Udaipur) were utilized to estimate the average daily gains (ADG) at different growth stages. The overall least-squares means of ADG for 0–3(ADG1), 3–6(ADG2), 6–9(ADG3) and 9–12(ADG4) months of

THE EFFECT OF THE HEIGHT AT THE RUMP ON A LIVE WEIGHT AND AVERAGE DAILY GAINS
Bulletin Samara State Agricultural Academy, 2016The purpose of the study – improvement of breeding and productive qualities of Hereford cattle by insemination bulls form the canadian selection. It is established that in young Hereford beef cattle between live weight and height at the sacrum and between the height at the sacrum and average daily gains there are mainly medium and high positive ...

Effects of Spaying on Average Daily Gain in Implanted Heifers on Pasture
American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2011Pasture grazing of beef feeder cattle destined for subsequent grain-fed feedlot production and slaughter can be a cost-effective production approach for regions with large areas of available pasture, as opposed to dry lot production programs. However, due to reproductive cycling, rates of gain (and presumably grass utilization) for heifers on pasture ...

A genomewide association study for average daily gain in Italian Large White pigs.
Journal of animal science, 2014Average daily gain is an important target trait in pig breeding programs. In this study we performed a genomewide association study for ADG in Italian Large White pigs using a selective genotyping approach. Two extreme and divergent groups of Italian Large White pigs (number 190 + 190) were selected among a population of about 10,000 performance tested
