Cattle residual feed intake candidate genes

open access: yes, 2009
One option that can be used to select cattle for improving feed efficiency is to select for genes affecting residual feed intake. Previous studies using two groups of cattle, the Trangie Angus residual feed intake (RFI) selection line cattle and the ...

Multivariate approach of inter-relationships among growth, consumption and carcass traits in Nellore cattle

open access: yesRevista Ciência Agronômica, 2014
The objective of the present study was to analyze the phenotypic inter-relationships between growth, feed intake and carcass traits in polled Nellore cattle, as well as to determine which bulls produced the most efficient progeny.

Influence of Surface Finish on the Tribological Performance of AlTiBN Coatings Deposited on Forming Tools

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Aluminum and nitride coatings are used in industry because they are hard, resist wear, and protect against oxidation. Adding boron can improve friction behavior and other properties. This study tests coatings on surfaces with different finishes. Results show smoother surfaces perform better, while rough ones wear faster, although coatings can reduce ...

Enhancing Bubble Removal in Geometry‐Optimized Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
3D‐printed lattice electrodes outperform stochastic foams in alkaline water electrolysis despite 20%–25% lower surface area. Straight flow channels generate Venturi‐like bubble entrainment, suppressing gas accumulation that renders foam interiors electrochemically inactive.

Genome-wide association and systems genetic analyses of residual feed intake, daily feed consumption, backfat and weight gain in pigs

open access: yes, 2014
Feed efficiency is one of the major components determining costs of animal production. Residual feed intake (RFI) is defined as the difference between the observed and the expected feed intake given a certain production. Residual feed intake 1 (RFI1) was

Quality of breeding value predictions from longitudinal analyses, with application to residual feed intake in pigs

open access: yes, 2022
BACKGROUND: An important goal in animal breeding is to improve longitudinal traits. The objective of this study was to explore for longitudinal residual feed intake (RFI) data, which estimated breeding value (EBV), or combination of EBV, to use in a ...

Feed efficiency of Nellore cattle selected for postweaning weight Eficiência alimentar em bovinos Nelore selecionados para peso pós-desmame

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2010
Two Nellore herds were compared, one selected for greater postweaning weight and the other, control, selected for average postweaning weight, to evaluate the effects of 29 years of selection on feed efficiency.

Long‐Range Coordination Environment Modulates Single‐Atom Local States and Systemic Impact on CO2 Photoconversion

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Terminal groups on Cu porphyrins modulate the electronic states of single‐atom Cu centers through a long‐range electronic effect, without altering the Cu coordination geometry. Meanwhile, a multi‐descriptor framework is established that incorporates porphyrin regulation, hybrid catalyst properties, and CO2 photoreduction capabilities.

Residual Feed Intake as a Selection Tool

open access: yes, 2010
This publication explains how residual feed intake can be used as a helpful tool when deciding which sires and dams to utilize to obtain superior ...
