Effects of supplemental amino acid and grain processing on nutrient disappearance and nitrogen and energy balance in cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
Milk and meat production among cattle fed corn and corn products is often limited by available energy and amino acids absorbed from the diet. Nutrients available from feed to support lactation or growth are a result of ...
Effects of long-term postgastric infusion of casein or glutamic acid on small intestinal starch digestion, energy balance, body composition, and metabolic fates of luminally assimilated glucose carbon in cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Small intestinal starch digestion (SISD) in ruminants is limited, but SISD can be improved by postruminal supply of casein or glutamic acid. There are no reports on the effects of increases in SISD in response to greater ...
Modulation of bovine preimplantation embryonic development and pregnancy by FGF2, LIF, and IGF1
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2024] In vitro embryo production enhances genetic selection through capitalizing on superior genetics, improving fertility, and increasing animal efficiency, all of which contribute to sustainable ...
Applying deep learning technologies to discovery and characterization of genetic variants in animal genomes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2024] The scale of publicly available genomic data has rapidly expanded by an order of magnitude within the last decade. However, research with these aggregated public data requires minimizing the ...
Involvement of aberrant chromosome architecture and locus-specific vulnerability to DNA methylation epimutations in bovine large offspring syndrome
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Large/abnormal offspring syndrome (LOS/AOS) and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) are similar congenital overgrowth syndromes which occur naturally in ruminants and humans, respectively. The incidence of these syndromes ...
Mapping copy number variants across the cattle genome
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
Copy number variation across individuals is known to be associated with traits such as gene expression, disease resistance, and other phenotypic variations. Due to improvements in accurately detecting genotypic variation ...
