Fat accretion measurements strengthen the relationship between feed conversion efficiency and Nitrogen isotopic discrimination while rumen microbial genes contribute little

The use of biomarkers for feed conversion efficiency (FCE), such as Nitrogen isotopic discrimination (Δ(15)N), facilitates easier measurement and may be useful in breeding strategies. However, we need to better understand the relationship between FCE and Δ(15)N, particularly the effects of differenc...
