Circulating serum metabolites as biomarkers and predictors of residual feed intake in lactating dairy cows

Abstract This study explored the potential of circulatory serum metabolite profiles to increase understanding of the physiology of feed efficiency and identify biomarkers to predict residual feed intake (RFI) in lactating Holsteins. Serum metabolite profiles were compared in high (n = 20) and low RF...
