Johnson, Jocelyn Rose (2019-07-26)Residual feed intake (RFI) is an ideal trait for use in selection programs to improve feed efficiency in beef cattle, as it quantifies between-animal variation in DMI that is independent of body size and productivity, to ...

Zoller, Jennifer Leigh (2016-12-08)Information regarding dietary requirements to maintain or alter body condition in the horse is scarce; however, a recently developed nutritional model was acceptably accurate in prediction of the energy required to alter ...

Paddock, Zachary Dean (2011-10-21)Cattle classified as having low residual feed intake (RFI) phenotypes are those that consume less feed than expected based on body weight and growth performance. Mechanisms contributing to the variation in RFI are not ...

Hafla, Aimee (2012-10-19)The objectives of this study were to characterize residual feed intake (RFI) in growing bulls and heifers and in mid-gestation females to examine relationships with performance, body composition, feeding behavior, digestibility ...

An Exploration of Biological Mechanisms that Impact Intake and Feed Efficiency in the Grazing Animal Wiley, Leanne (2013-05-21)Biological mechanisms that potentially contribute to residual feed intake (RFI) have not been fully understood in the grazing animal. The objective of this study was to determine the differences of RFI measured in confinement ...
