Genetic Aspects of Feed Efficiency in Broilers

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1969
Abstract DIFFERENCES among individuals in their ability to convert feed into body tissue are important in determining net income from the production of broiler chickens. However, measuring individual feed consumption is costly and time consuming.

Genetic aspects of feed intake in lactating sows

open access: yes, 2011
Productivity of sows has increased worldwide, especially during the last decade. Sows have been changed genetically to produce larger litters. It was hypothesized that including feed intake or feed efficiency during lactation or both in the breeding ...

Optimization of the Production of Rubber Compounds Using Mathematical Models

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Rubber compounds were mixed in a batch internal mixer, and symbolic regression was used to derive mathematical models linking recipe and process parameters to ram path, torque, and mixing quality (incorporation, dispersion, distribution). Subsequent optimization with evolutionary algorithms identified operating conditions that reduce specific energy ...

Feed Efficiency Calculator

open access: yes, 2015
The Feed Efficiency Calculator, a product from the National Program for Genetic Improvement of Feed Efficiency in Beef Cattle provides a tool to researchers and producers interested in calculating residual feed intake (RFI), residual gain (RG) and adjusted feed to gain values on tested animals.

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

Microrabbits : a factorial design to evaluate genetic and maternal effects on growth and feed efficiency in a line selected for residual feed intake

open access: yes, 2018
International audiencePerformances of growing rabbits are determined by their genotype and their environment. The effect of maternal environment is particularly important in this species.

Nondestructive Testing of Welded Composite Metal Foams

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate welded steel–steel composite metal foam (CMF) joints of two density classes. It reports variation in postweld spatial void distribution and correlates it to weld‐induced changes, mechanical performance, and failure within welded CMF panels.

Response to selection for two feed efficiency criteria in rabbit. 1. Growth feed intake and feed efficiency

open access: yes, 2015
Deux caractères ont été sélectionnés afin d’améliorer l’efficacité alimentaire du lapin entre le sevrage et 63 jours i) la consommation résiduelle (CR, lignée ConsoResiduelle), ii) le gain moyen quotidien en régime alimentaire restreint (GMQR, lignée GMQrestreint).
