Performance, carcass traits and serum metabolomic profile of Nellore males with different genetic potential for post-weaning growth

The BW has been largely used as a selection criterion in genetic selection programmes; however, increases in BW can affect animal metabolism and metabolites. The knowledge of how genetic potential for growth affects the metabolites can give a footprint of growth metabolism. This research aimed to ev...
