Feed and reproductive efficiency differences between divergently selected lines for birthweight environmental variability in mice.

Journal of animal breeding and genetics = Zeitschrift fur Tierzuchtung und Zuchtungsbiologie - 1 Oct 2018

Formoso-Rafferty Nora, de la Flor Miguel, Gutiérrez Juan Pablo, Cervantes Isabel

Abstract excerpt

Sustainability has come to play an important role in agricultural production. A way to combine efficiency with sustainability might be by searching for robust animals that can be selected for the homogeneity of certain traits. Furthermore, the optimization of feed efficiency is one of the challenges to improve livestock genetics programmes, but this might compromise reproductive efficiency. Animals from two...
