A resource allocation model describing consequences of artificial selection under metabolic stress.

Journal of animal science - 1 Apr 2004

van der Waaij E H

Abstract excerpt

Long-term selection on production results in increased environmental sensitivity. This often is expressed through decreased fertility and increased health problems. The phenomenon has been described in all common farm animal species. One theory is that potential resource intake is insufficient to express production potential. Additional resources are drawn away from fitness-related traits, such as fertility and...
