These practices have perceived ethical issues and are considered a waste of resources because these calves could be...

The study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity and evolutionary relationships of the sires from Qaidam cattle and Mongolian cattle at genomic level. In this study, the whole genome resequencing was used to scan the Y-chromosome single copy gene regions of a total of 22 individuals from 5...

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the effects of dietary niacin on the slaughter performance, meat quality and lipid metabolism of beef cattle under heat stress. Thirty-six healthy Jinjiang cattle with similar age and body weight were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups with ...
