Weather influences feed intake and feed efficiency in a temperate climate [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2017
A key goal for livestock science is to ensure that food production meets the needs of an increasing global population. Climate change may heighten this challenge through increases in mean temperatures and in the intensity, duration, and spatial distribution of extreme weather events, such as heat waves.

Mechanisms by Which Fermented Soybean Meal and Soybean Meal Induced Enteritis in Marine Fish Juvenile Pearl Gentian Grouper

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Soy meals can cause intestinal inflammation and even injury in animals, especially infants and juvenile individuals. This study investigated the effects of fermented soybean meal (FSBM) on the growth and intestinal homeostasis of juvenile pearl gentian ...

Dietary supplementation of essential oils in dairy cows: evidence for stimulatory effects on nutrient absorption [PDF]

, 2019
Results of recent in vitro experiments suggest that essential oils (EO) may not only influence ruminal fermentation but also modulate the absorption of cations like Na+, Ca2+ and NH4+ across ruminal epithelia of cattle and sheep through direct ...

The Single-Molecule Long-Read Sequencing of Intestine After Soy Meal-Induced Enteritis in Juvenile Pearl Gentian Grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus♀ × Epinephelus lanceolatus♂

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Intestinal inflammatory disease induced by excessive soy protein substitutions for fish meal (FM) protein is a common phenomenon. The pearl gentian grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus♀ × Epinephelus lanceolatus♂, a marine fish with important economical ...

The theory of the scattering-induced feeding-in in bent crystals [PDF]

, 1995
An analytical theory for the efficiency of scattering-induced transitions from a random to a channeled state (feed-in) in bent crystals is derived. The predictions from the theory are in good agreement with experiment and Monte Carlo simulations.Comment:

Feed Efficiency and Mitochondrial Function

Poultry Science, 2006
Studies have been conducted in our laboratory to assess differences in mitochondrial function and biochemistry in male broilers with high and low feed efficiency (FE) from the same genetic line and fed the same diet. Mitochondria obtained from broilers with low FE exhibited greater uncoupling of the electron transport chain (ETC) that was apparently ...

Identification of Microbial Genetic Capacities and Potential Mechanisms Within the Rumen Microbiome Explaining Differences in Beef Cattle Feed Efficiency

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
In this study, Bos Taurus cattle offered one high concentrate diet (92% concentrate-8% straw) during two independent trials allowed us to classify 72 animals comprising of two cattle breeds as “Low” or “High” feed efficiency groups.
