Nitrogen partitioning and microbial protein synthesis in lactating dairy cows with different phenotypic residual feed intake
Abstract Background Residual feed intake (RFI) is an inheritable measure of feed efficiency that is independent on level of production. However, physiological and metabolic mechanisms underlying divergent RFI are not fully elucidated. This study was conducted to investigate dietary nitrogen (N) part...
