The genetic relationship between commencement of luteal activity and calving interval, body condition score, production, and linear type traits in Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The decline of fertility in the UK dairy herd and the unfavorable genetic correlation (r(a)) between fertility and milk yield has necessitated the broadening of breeding goals to include fertility.

Prepartum body conditions affect insulin signaling pathways in postpartum adipose tissues in transition dairy cows

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2019
Background Overconditioned dairy cows are susceptible to excessive lipolysis and increased insulin resistance during the transition period. The associations among body fat reserve, insulin resistance, and lipolysis in adipose tissues (AT) remain to be ...

Association of body weight, loin longissimus dorsi and backfat with body condition score in dry and lactating Holstein dairy cows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The lactation cycle of the dairy cow induces large changes in body fat and protein pools, which can be monitored through loin backfat (BF) and longissimus dorsi (LD) measurements.

Cow Condition and Reproductive Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It has been understood for decades that reproductive performance is the most important factor affecting production efficiency of a cow-calf enterprise. To maintain a yearly calving interval (one calf every 365 days), a cow must re-breed in 80 to 85 days ...

Effects of early perinatal body condition in dairy cows on blood biochemical indices and liver metabolic mechanism in their offspring

open access: yesAnimal Nutriomics
The body condition of cows during the early perinatal period has a long-term impact on the health of their offspring calves; however, research on the mechanisms of liver metabolism in this context is limited.
