Mechanistic modeling of turkey growth response to genotype and nutrition.
Journal of animal science - 1 Oct 2011

Abstract excerpt
Along with the fast genetic improvement, nutritional and environmental effects on poultry growth performance have made it necessary to develop growth models that have the flexibility to adapt to different genotypes and growing conditions. A mechanistic simulation model of energy and nutrient utilization in growing turkeys is presented herein. The model consists of simulating the average homeorhetic and...
