Heritability and Correlations Among Body Condition Score Loss, Body Condition Score, Production and Reproductive Performance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2002
The objectives of this study were to estimate the heritability of body condition score loss (BCSL) in early lactation and estimate genetic and phenotypic correlations among BCSL, body condition score (BCS), production, and reproductive performance. Body condition scores at calving and postpartum, mature equivalents for milk, fat and protein yield, days

Body score of dairy cows

Journal of Dairy Research, 1998
During the last two decades the traditional subjective appraisal of the body fat stores in farm animals, made by eye and touch, has been rationalized by the introduction of numerical systems of rating specific anatomical points.Palpation of the lumbar vertebrae, the pin and hook bones (tail head) (Lowman et al.

Body condition scoring as a predictor of body fat in horses and ponies

The Veterinary Journal, 2012
Body condition scoring systems were originally developed to quantify flesh cover in food animals and are commonly used to evaluate body fat in Equidae. The relationship between concurrent estimates of body fat content (eTBF%, deuterium oxide dilution; range, 2.7-35.6%) and subjective appraisals of body 'fatness' (body condition score, BCS; range, 1.25 ...

The Design of the Body:Suit:Score, a Full-Body Vibrotactile Musical Score

2019
We present the body:suit:score, a vibrotactile musical score that displays instructions and signals directly on musicians’ bodies using an array of vibrating motors. Initially inspired by the third author’s need for a new kind of score in his compositional practice, the body:suit:score facilitates the exploration of novel musical experiences and ...

Body condition scoring and weight estimation of horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1988
Summary Three hundred and seventy two horses of varying breeds, height and fatness were weighed and measured for height at the withers. They were assessed for condition score by adaptation of a previously published method. The heart girth and length of 281 of the horses were also measured.

Relationship of body composition of mature ewes with condition score and body weight

Journal of Animal Science, 1993
Fourteen mature, ovariectomized, western-range ewes with an initial mean BW of 72 +/- 4.5 kg and mean condition score (CS) of 7.5 +/- .3 were used to evaluate the relationship between CS and body composition. Diets of chopped straw and alfalfa hay were formulated to provide either maintenance energy or less than maintenance energy (100 or 60% of ME) to
