Abstract excerpt
This study assessed differential gene expression and identified expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) from samples of Longissimus lumborum muscle from bulls at 15 months of age submitted to different prenatal nutrition. Upon confirmation of pregnancy, 126 dams were separated into three diet treatments varying the period of inclusion of energy protein supplementation (NP, PP, and FP). At calving, 63 males...
