Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.

Parent-of-origin-specific allelic associations among 106 genomic loci for age at menarche. [PDF]

, 2014
Age at menarche is a marker of timing of puberty in females. It varies widely between individuals, is a heritable trait and is associated with risks for obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer and all-cause mortality.

A Testicular Leydig Cell Tumor; An Uncommon Cause of Precocious Puberty: A Case Report With Secondary Central Precocious Puberty

Acta Medica Iranica, 2023
Sexual precocity in boys is defined as any sign of secondary sexual characteristics present before the age of 9. Leydig cell tumors of the testes are a rare cause of peripheral precocious puberty in boys.

Genetic Relationships Between Residual Gain and Economically Important Traits in Nellore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable beef production requires identifying animals with superior feed efficiency to reduce environmental impact and production costs. This study aimed to estimate heritability and genetic correlations between residual gain (RG) and growth, reproductive, carcass and feed efficiency traits in Nellore cattle.

Body size of male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at introduction of a 5‐week LD12:12 winter signal influences their decision to mature early or smoltify

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual maturation of male Atlantic salmon post‐smolts (‘jacking’) is undesired in aquaculture and seems to occur due to the intensification in modern facilities. Maturation depends on internal and external factors (temperature, photoperiod, feed availability, energy levels, body size, genetic background) that act on the brain‐pituitary‐gonad ...
