Dhanoa, M. S., Lopez, S., France, J. (2008). Linear models for determining digestibility, in Mathematical Modelling in Animal Nutrition, (eds) France, J.Kebreab, E. CABI Publishing, pp. 12-46. A brief overview of linear regression is presented in this chapter, followed by an appraisal examining the use of linear models to estimate digestibility, one of the main components of the nutritive value of feedstuffs, and hence one of the most studied variables in quantitative animal nutrition. Chapter 2 RONO: 2460 3006 |

| dc.description.abstract |
Mathematical modelling is increasingly applicable to the practical sciences. Here, mathematical approaches are applied to the study of mechanisms of digestion and metabolism in primary animal species. Farmed animals - ruminants, pigs, poultry and fish are comprehensively covered, as well as sections on companion animals. Common themes between species, such as energy and amino acid metabolism, are explored with a worldwide approach. Leading researchers from around the world have contributed to France and Kebreab's volume to provide an integrated approach to mathematical modelling in animal nutrition. |
