TLDR
In summary, feed restriction severely affected growth performance and lipid metabolism in broilers in the early period and might have induced prolonged metabolic programming in chicks and led to adult obesity.

Effect of genotype, gender and feed restriction on growth, meat quality and the occurrence of white striping and wooden breast in broiler chickens

TL;DR: Genotype had a moderate effect on growth without modifying myopathy occurrence, and gender and feed restriction affected performance, meat quality, and breast abnormalities.

Selenomethionine: an Effective Selenium Source for Sow to Improve Se Distribution, Antioxidant Status, and Growth Performance of Pig Offspring

TL;DR: It is concluded that maternal selenomethionine intake increased Se deposition, antioxidant status, and nutrient use efficiency, thus providing an effective way to improve the growth performance of piglets from birth to weaning.

Fat deposition in the broiler chicken: a review.

TL;DR: Results indicate that genotype, sex, age and nutrition of the broiler chicken are some of the main factors affecting fat deposition and selection can reduce excessive fat deposition in the long term strategy and for reduced body fat deposition, either using abdominal fat content or plasma very-low-density-lipoprotein has been shown to be useful in reducing fat deposition.

Early feed restriction in broilers. I–Performance, body fraction weights, and meat quality

TL;DR: Early restriction programs either by T2 or T3 can be used as a method for controlling growth rate in broilers without any damage to performance and meat quality at 42 d of age.

Effects of heat stress on the gene expression of nutrient transporters in the jejunum of broiler chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus)

TL;DR: The findings suggest that periodic heat exposure might alter the jejunal glucose and lipid transport rather than amino acid transport, and intestinal epithelial damage and cell loss should be considered when interpreting the effects of heat stress on the expression of intestinal transporters.

Programming by Early Nutrition: An Experimental Approach

Alan Lucas
- 01 Feb 1998 - 
TL;DR: It is found that humans, like other species, have sensitive windows for nutrition in terms of later outcomes; for instance, perinatal diet influences neurodevelopment and bone mineralization into mid-childhood.

Early growth and abdominal fatness in adult life.

TL;DR: The tendency to store fat abdominally, which is known to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes independently of obesity, may be a persisting response to adverse conditions and growth failure in fetal life and infancy.
