Estimation of body composition in tropical sheep raised under seasonal feed supply conditions: Prediction models
Prediction models were developed from isotope dilution space (D2O) and live animal measurements (heart girth, height at withers, body length and tail volume measurements) to estimate chemical body components of indigenous tropical fat-tailed sheep breeds in vivo. A STEPWISE multiple regression proce...
