Identification of polymorphisms influencing feed intake and efficiency in beef cattle.

Animal genetics - 1 Jun 2008

Sherman E L, Nkrumah J D, Murdoch B M, Moore S S

Abstract excerpt

Feed efficiency is an economically important trait in beef cattle. Net feed efficiency, measured as residual feed intake (RFI), is the difference between actual feed intake and the predicted feed intake required for maintenance and gain of the animal. SNPs that show associations with RFI may be useful quantitative trait nucleotides for marker-assisted selection. This study identified associations between SNPs...
