• Abstract

  Fecal microbiome provides insights into the efficiency of feed utilization, serving as a non-invasive indicator of rumen health and function. By assessing the composition and activity of fecal microbes, we can evaluate feed digestibility, identify microbial markers for efficient nutrient absorption, and develop tailored feeding strategies. Metagenomics, which involves the study of genetic…

  Metagenomics to study the microbiome of feedlot cattle: relationships with feed efficiency and production traits, AP.R SPRINT

• Abstract

  The Brazilian beef cattle production supply about 20% of the total beef consumed in the world. However, producers and meatpacking industries have few mechanisms that allow for the identification of efficient cattle in an integrated manner, which will produce carcasses and meat cuts with superior quality to serve the most demanding and best-paying markets. The "efficiency × quality" paradi…

• Study of feed efficiency and meat quality traits of Nellore bulls feedlot finished, BP.TT

• Abstract

  Brazil plays an enormous and important role in the world beef market and considering the increasing number of animals finished in feedlots further studies on meat quality traits are needed. In feedlots, diets with a high proportion of starch (e 70%) may be used. Alternatively, in order to reduce the costs of the formulations, the reduction of the corn grain (and starch) is possible throug…

  Identification of regulatory genes for tenderness and lipogenesis by transcriptomic and proteomic approach in beef cattle fed with different diets, BP.PD

• Abstract

  Several studies conducted with molecular biology techniques have focused their hypotheses on mitochondria reporting a possible association with feed efficiency and heat production on beef cattle. In these organelles are the uncoupling protein (UCP), which functions and their interrelationships are not yet fully established. Recently, researchers found inducible adipocytes or brite (beige)…
