Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of reduced and compensatory growth.
TL;DR: The role of plasma IGF-I during compensatory growth is not clear and must be explained in connection with changes of its binding proteins, which seem to have a permissive effect on growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determinants of meat quality: tenderness.
TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that variation in other factors such as the muscle fibre type composition and the buffering capacity of the muscle together with the breed and nutritional status of the animals may also contribute to the observed variation in meat tenderness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meat quality in goats as influenced by dietary protein and energy levels, and postmortem aging
Govind Kannan,K.M. Gadiyaram,S. Galipalli,A.K. Carmichael,Brou Kouakou,T.D. Pringle,K.W. McMillin,S. Gelaye +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of different dietary treatments and postmortem aging on meat quality characteristics in goats were evaluated by feeding a set of castrated dairy goats for 82 days, and they were slaughtered to evaluate meat quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of feed rationing during post-weaning growth on meat quality, muscle energy metabolism and fibre properties of Biceps femoris muscle in the rabbit.
TL;DR: In this article, the Biceps femoris (BF) muscles were immediately removed from each rabbit and the ultimate pH (pHu) and meat color L*a*b* parameters were measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of concentrate feeding pattern in a grass silage/concentrate beef finishing system on performance, selected carcass and meat quality characteristics.
TL;DR: Modifications of the beef production system examined had minor effects on beef quality which are unlikely to be of commercial significance.

Compensatory growth after undernutrition in mammals and birds.
P. N. Wilson,D. F. Osbourn +1 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms whereby an animal is enabled to make recovery and the relative efficiencies of continuous and discontinuous growth are described.

Procedures for measuring meat quality characteristics in beef production experiments. Report of a working group in the commission of the European communities' (CEC) beef production research programme

TL;DR: A Working Group on Meat Quality in the CEC Beef Production Research Programme has recommended reference methods for the assessment of meat characteristics to be used at the end of beef production experiments as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palatability and Muscle Characteristics of Cattle with Controlled Weight Gain: Time on a High Energy Diet
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical and chemical components of the empty body during compensatory growth in beef steers.
TL;DR: Reduced NEg requirements and changes in gut fill accounted for most of the compensatory growth response exhibited in these steers, and net energy requirements for growth were approximately 18% lower for CG steers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced and compensatory growth: endocrine and metabolic changes during food restriction and refeeding in steers.
TL;DR: The data demonstrate the ability of growing ruminants to adapt rapidly to variations in food intake by closely linked metabolic and endocrine changes, which are associated with shifts in energy and nitrogen metabolism and, finally, by reduced or compensatory growth.
