Simple Summary The objective of this review is to highlight the importance of odd and
branched chain fatty acids and dietary factors that may affect their content in milk acids in …

Abstract Yaks (Bos grunniens) and Qaidam cattle (Bos taurus) graze the Qinghai-Tibetan
Plateau (QTP) grassland all year, but yaks graze at altitudes higher than cattle. Yaks are …

Developing the rumen's capacity to utilise recalcitrant and low-value feed resources is
important for ruminant production systems. Early-life nutrition and management practices …

Milk from yaks, also called “liquid gold”, is reputed to be very healthy for people, but the yield
is relatively low. The intake of energy and amino acids, especially lysine and methionine, of …

The yak (Bos grunniens), an indigenous bovine on the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau (QTP), is
reported to digest low quality forage to a greater extent and to require less protein and …

Since starch digestion in the small intestine provides more energy than digestion in the
rumen of ruminants, reducing dietary rumen degradable starch (RDS) content is beneficial …

Simple Summary Simple Summary: In recent years, research has focused on determining
the contents of odd-and branched-chain fatty acids (OBCFAs) in milk from various ruminant …

The objective was to study the interaction effects of rumen nitrogen balance (RNB) and
dietary protein source on feed intake, apparent total-tract digestibility (ATTD), eating and …

The performance of grazing dairy cows, when supplemented with high levels of a maize-
based concentrate, could potentially be improved in terms of higher milk and milk protein …
