Maternal Plane Of Nutrition During Late Gestation And Weaning Age Alter Offspring Transcriptome Profiles Of Longissimus Muscle In Angus M-CM-^W Simmental

ABSTRACT: We evaluated if a higher plane of maternal nutrition during late gestation and weaning age alters the offspringM-bM-^@M-^Ys Longissimus muscle (LM) transcriptome. A microarray analysis was performed in LM samples of early (EW) and normal weaned (NW) Angus M-CM-^W Simmental calves born from cows that were grazing endophyte-infected tall fescue/red clover pastures with no supplement (low plane of nutrition (LPN)), or supplemented with 2.3 kg of dried distillerM-bM-^@M-^Ys grains with solubles and soyhulls (70% DDGS/30% soyhulls) (medium plane of nutrition (MPN)) during the last 90 days of gestation. Biopsies were harvested at 78, 187 and 354 days of age. Bioinformatics analysis highlighted that offspring transcriptome did not respond markedly to cow plane of nutrition, resulting in only 13 d
