The influence of maternal nutrition on expression of genes responsible for adipogenesis and myogenesis in the bovine fetus
The objective of this study was to determine whether altered maternal energy supply during mid-gestation results in differences in muscle histology or genes regulating fetal adipose and muscle development. In total, 22 Angus cross-bred heifers (BW=527.73±8.3 kg) were assigned randomly to the three d...
