Sällman Almén, M., Liao, X., Stothard, P., Henegar, C., Van Doormaal, B., Rubin, C. -J., Andersson, L., Barsh, G. S., Ito, S., Plastow, G., Wakamatsu, K., Dorshorst, B.
Coat color in Holstein dairy cattle is primarily controlled by the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene, a central determinant of black (eumelanin) vs. red/brown pheomelanin synthesis across animal species. The major MC1R alleles in Holsteins are Dominant Black (MC1RD) and Recessive Red (MC1Re). A...

Field experiments were conducted in Indian Head, Saskatchewan in order to study the effects of a natural shelterbelt (width-to-height ratio W/H = 0.5) on dust dispersion from a gravel road. Transects of dust concentration sensors running normal to the road were placed both in the lee of the...

The relative growth and distribution of bone from 256 bovine carcasses were compared among three breed-types (British, up to 30% Charolais and 30-50% Charolais) and three \"sexes\" (heifers, steers and bulls) over a wide range in carcass weight.

Baron, V. S., López-Campos, O., Aalhus, J. L., Basarab, J. A., Okine, E. K.
In each of 2 yr, 112 spring-born steers were used to evaluate the effect of calf-fed vs. yearling-fed with and without growth implant and β-adrenergic agonist on production parameters and economic potential. Steers were grouped into: (1) non-implanted feeders harvested at 11–14 mo of age, (2)...

The effects of zeranol were studied in 24 steers and 24 bulls starting at an average weight of 200 kg for a trial period of 183 days. Bulls grew faster than steers (P = 0.07) and zeranol-treated cattle showed higher average daily gain than controls (P < 0.05); there was no significant interaction...
