abstract

forty growing ram lambs (lori-bakhtiari breed) averaging 28 kg (±1.5) were allocated in this study to evaluate the optimal dietary energy density in a lamb fattening enterprise in iran. the feed intake (fi), body weight (bw), gain to feed ratio (g:f) and carcass characteristics were studied. four treatments differed in metabolizable energy content (me) as follow; 2, 2.3, 2.6 and 2.9 mcal/kg for treatments 1 to 4, respectively. the study lasted 120 days and all the experimental lambs were slaughtered and carcass composition was compared among treatments. average daily gains were 230, 252, 267 and 259 g/d for treatments 1 to 4, respectively (p

Reference Gene Selection in Adipose and Muscle Tissues of Fat-tailed Lori-Bakhtiari Lambs

BACKGROUND: Fat-tailed sheep breeds have a  unique  ability  to  tolerate  periods  of  negative  energy  balance  due to seasonal changes in feed availability. This ability is attributed to presence  of  fat-tail  as  a  body  energy  reserve, however the exact underlying  mechanisms  controlling  the  response  of adipose  tissue  depots  to variations in energy balance in fat-tailed breeds a...
