2017, Agri GeneCitation Excerpt :Those findings are similar to Gray et al. (2011) who described a relationship between dam hair coat score and calf weaning weights. Elevated circulating prolactin concentrations during the summer months leads to winter hair coat shedding (McClanahan et al., 2008; Porter and Thompson, 1992). A low hair coat score in the summer months allows cattle to better dissipate heat and can reduce the effects of heat stress (Olson et al., 2003).
Differences in hair coat shedding, and effects on calf weaning weight and BCS among Angus dams
2011, Livestock ScienceCitation Excerpt :Hair coat shedding has also been shown to be affected by diet. Toxic wild-type endophyte-infected tall fescue affects prolactin concentrations (Bernard et al., 1993) and hair coat shedding (McClanahan et al., 2008). Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that even while all animals in NC were on wild-type endophyte-infected tall fescue there still was variation within that herd.
