Epidemiological data indicate that developmental programming of various non-
communicable diseases (NCDs) occurs as a consequence of altered maternal metabolic …

Simple Summary The objective of the following review is to describe available literature on
the interaction between maternal nutrition and developmental programming in male …

Background Individuals exposed to gestational stressors such as alcohol exhibit a spectrum
of growth patterns, suggesting individualized responses to the stressors. We hypothesized …

Few studies have investigated the effects of nutrition during the periconception and early
gestation periods on fetal and placental development in cattle. In this study, nulliparous …

Nutritional perturbation during gestation alters male reproductive development in rodents
and sheep. In cattle both the developmental trajectory of the feto–placental unit and its …

The authors have illustrated that the prenatal period influences neonatal mortality. Nutrient
restriction, protein restriction, elevated ambient temperature, or a stress event during …

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of early and mid-gestation nutrient restriction
on maternal metabolites and foetal growth. Primiparous Angus cows were synchronized and …

Nulliparous yearling beef heifers (n= 360) were used to evaluate the effects of maternal
dietary protein during the periconception and first trimester periods of gestation on postnatal …

Abstract Primiparous Santa Gertrudis heifers were used to evaluate the effects of gestational
dietary protein content on meat quality traits of 20 month old bull progeny (n= 40). At− 60 d …

Research indicates that some adult diseases including reproductive pathologies are
programmed in utero during foetal development. In particular, maternal low dietary protein …
