Heritability of beef cow metabolizable energy for maintenance.

Journal of animal science - 3 Jan 2023

Freetly Harvey C, Jacobs Devin R, Thallman R Mark, Snelling Warren M, Kuehn Larry A

Abstract excerpt

Most of the metabolizable energy that a cow uses during a production year is for maintenance; however, less is known about the heritability of maintenance compared to other traits that can be measured directly. Feed intake is a heritable trait in the mature cow and most of the feed consumed is used for maintenance. We hypothesized that maintenance energy was a heritable trait. Individual feed intake was measured...
