Interpretive Summary: The use of remote monitoring technologies for early detection of lameness in beef bulls during the breeding season
Lameness in beef bulls during the breeding season can reduce their ability to reproduce, but early detection of lameness can minimize these impacts. This study investigated how remote monitoring technologies (RMT, i.e., collars equipped with…

Interpretive Summary: Particulate exposure during spermatogenesis is associated with adverse bull reproductive fitness in a wildfire impacted area
We studied whether wildfire smoke and fine particulate matter (which makes up most of smoke by mass) impacts bulls’ reproductive health, specifically if sperm samples collected at a Colorado breeding facility were saved for future use or were discarded…

Interpretive Summary: Differential gene expression in skeletal muscle in response to variation in diet quality consumed by pregnant mature Angus cows
This study used 48 mature, gestating beef cows to determine the effect of diet type on voluntary feed intake and gene expression in muscle tissue. Diets consisted of forage-only (FOR) and an energy-dense forage/concentrate mix (CONC). Two experimental…
