Understanding variability and repeatability of enteric methane production in feedlot cattle

Breeding ruminants for low methane (CH4) emissions can be permanent and cumulative, but requires a better understanding of the variability of CH4 production among animals to accurately assess low-CH4 phenotypes. Our objectives were to: 1) investigate the variation in CH4 production among and within...
