Integrating Genomics with Nutrition Models to Improve the Prediction of Cattle Performance and Carcass Composition under Feedlot Conditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Cattle body composition is difficult to model because several factors affect the composition of the average daily gain (ADG) of growing animals. The objective of this study was to identify commercial single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels that could

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 1-13, January-March 2019., 2019 The obesity epidemic in developed societies has led to increased cardiovascular diseases including pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH‐LHD), the largest and fastest‐growing class of PH. Similar to obese humans, PH and heart failure (HF) are increasingly recognized in North American fattened beef cattle. We hypothesized that PH

Bioenergy for Cattle and Cars: A Switchgrass Production System that Engages Cattle Producers
Agronomy Journal, Volume 105, Issue 4, Page 960-966, July–August 2013., 2013 Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) produced for bioenergy is expected to compete with land resources used for stocker cattle (Bos taurus) grazing in the southern Great Plains. The objective was to determine the effect of stocking rate on animal performance, biomass yield, and quality.

Energy and Nutrient Recovery from Cattle Feedlots
International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Selective harvesting of manure can benefit cattle producers by creating a product of value. A tool that identifies locations of manure accumulation has been developed using a subsurface sensor (Dualem‐1S, Milton, ON) and software designed for salt mapping (ESAP, Riverside, CA).

Salmonella Prevalence in Bovine Lymph Nodes Differs among Feedyards
Journal of Food Protection, 2012 Lymphatic tissue, specifically lymph nodes, is commonly incorporated into ground beef products as a component of lean trimmings. Salmonella and other pathogenic bacteria have been identified in bovine lymph nodes, which may impact compliance with the Salmonella performance standards for ground beef established by the U.S.
