Effects of finishing strategy on performance of Belgian Blue × Friesian and Limousin × Friesian steers. [PDF]
peer-reviewedBelgian Blue and Limousin bulls are used for cross-breeding with Holstein Friesian dairy cows in Ireland. In beef winter-finishing enterprises, a preliminary feeding period sometimes precedes the finishing period. The optimum feeding level

ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Genetic Architecture of Carcass Composition in Chickens
A cross-sectional diallel experiment was used to estimate the contribution of various types of genetic variation for the chemical components of the chicken carcass. Populations tested included a commercially developed sire line (CM), a fertility-selected broiler line (FS), and the pureline Jersey Giant (JG).
