Effects of feeding a Bacillus-based probiotic on feed intake, performance, carcass traits, and health of crossbred beef cattle fed sodium monensin and high-moisture corn-based diets during finishing

Abstract This experiment evaluated feed intake, performance, fecal nutrient concentrations, health, and carcass traits of crossbred beef cattle offered a high-moisture corn-based diet containing sodium monensin. On day 0 of the study, 402 crossbred steers [initial body weight (BW) 329 ± 69.5 kg] were blocked by BW and...

PS11-14. Performance and Physiological Responses of Beef Calves Carrying the Slick PRLR Allele During the Post-weaning Period.

Natural mutations in the prolactin receptor gene (PRLR) result in slick hair phenotype and improved thermoregulation. Gene-editing technologies allow the introduction of novel variants into PRLR, providing a strategy to rapidly incorporate slick phenotype into cattle populations. The objective of this study was to ev...
