Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Cocoa Pulp Level Mixed With Feed Concentrate on Performance and Blood Metabolite Profiles of Dry-Lot Fattening Bali SteersRenny Fatmyah Utamy, Yasuyuki Ishii, Ambo Ako et al.Aim of this study is to evaluate the utilization of cocoa pulp as an alternative feedstuff source for the performance and blood metabolite profiles of dry-lot fattening Bali steers. Nine fattening Bali steers were randomly assigned to experimental diets, composed of three levels of cocoa pulp of 0, 5 and 10% with reducing levels of milled corn composition at 20, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2021 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Greater dose of Ractopamine Hydrochloride Enhances Feedlot Performance and Impacts Carcass Characteristics of Calf-Fed Holstein SteersJerilyn E. Hergenreder, Jonathon L. Beckett, Zachary K. Smith, Bradley J. JohnsonThe objective was to evaluate the effects of supplementing ractopamine HCl at the rate of 400 mg steer1 daily in the final 28 d of the feeding period on growth performance and carcass characteristics of Holstein steers. Steers (n = 1,498; initial BW = 547 kg) were randomly assigned to pens (10 pens/treatment) and to a treatment: (1) 0 mg∙steer1∙d1 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2021 · 6,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Mannan-Oligosaccharides on Daily Weight Gain and Health of Pre-Weaned Holstein Calves in ChilePedro Melendez, Pablo Pinedo, Maria Paz Marin, Angelica AriasThe objective was to compare the effect of S. cerevisiae and mannan-oligosaccharides on Average Daily Gain (ADG), live weight and health of dairy calves in Chile. Calves were weighed at birth and randomly assigned to 3 groups: (i) Yeast (YS): 5 g/calf/day of a live yeast (n = 25); (ii) Mannan (MN): 3 g/calf/day of mannan-oligosaccharides (n = 25); (iii) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2018 · 8,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymorphisms in Several Porcine Genes are Associated with Growth TraitsGetmantseva Lyubov, Anatoly Kolosov, Maria Leonova et al.The purpose of this study was to confirm the relation between polymorphism of POU1F1, GH, PRLR and MC4R genes and economically important traits of the Duroc pigs bred in Russia. Studies were carried out on purebred Duroc breed pigs (male n = 360). All pigs were kept under identical and standard conditions. The traits of analysis: The number of Days … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 12 Nov 2016 · 7,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF NATURALLY PRODUCED DIETARY FUSARIUM MYCOTOXINS ON WEANING PIGSS. Y. Shin, C. Kong, I. H. Kim, B. G. KimMycotoxins reduce animal productivity and animal health. The influence of Fusarium mycotoxins in corn co-products on pig performance is an important issue in swine feed industry. This study was conducted to determine the effects of naturally produced Fusarium mycotoxins in Corn Gluten Meal (CGM) on growth performance of nursery pigs. A total 96 weaning pigs comprising 48 gilts and 48 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,608 accessesView PDFCite
