Response profiles of dairy cows to a single 24-h milking interval in relation with milk proteolysis, udder expansion and immune traits

An extended milking interval of 24 h (24-h milking interval (24h-MI)) constitutes the acute phase of cow adaptation to once-daily milking (ODM). A recent trial including 724 24h-MI challenges demonstrated that milk yield responses to this acute phase of ODM are highly variable (from+22% to −52% of m...
