The molecular basis underlying fetal programming in response to maternal nutrition remains
unclear. Herein, we investigated the regulatory relationships between genes in fetal …

We hypothesized that a moderate maternal nutrient restriction during the first 50 d of
gestation in beef heifers would affect transcript abundance of genes associated with tissue …

Simple Summary Maternal nutrient supply during the periconceptual period has long-term
effects on fetal development and tissue function. During pregnancy, the fetus relies on the …

Maternal nutritional management during gestation appears to modulate fetal development
and imprint offspring postnatal health and performance, via altered organ and tissue …

Maternal mineral nutrition during the critical phases of fetal development may leave lifetime
impacts on the productivity of an individual. Most research within the developmental origins …

Longevity of cattle is correlated to reproductive success. Many studies in different species
report the influence of maternal nutrition on progeny performance, health, and reproduction …

Background Coexpression network analysis is a powerful tool to reveal transcriptional
regulatory mechanisms, identify transcription factors, and discover gene functions. It can …

Managing nutrient supply to match demand is critical for sustainable and efficient livestock
production. The California Net Energy System (CNES) was developed during the late 1950s …

Background Manipulating maternal nutrition during specific periods of gestation can result in
re-programming of fetal and post-natal development. In this experiment we investigated how …

Maternal nutrients are essential for proper fetal and placental development and function.
However, the effects of vitamin and mineral supplementation under two rates of maternal …
