The effects of pathogen challenges on the performance of naive and immune animals: the problem of prediction
(2007)Predictive frameworks for performance under both physical and social stressors are available, but no general framework yet exists for predicting the performance of animals exposed to pathogens. The aim of this paper was ... -
Is anorexia during infection in animals affected by food composition?
(2010)A reduction in voluntary food intake, referred to as anorexia, is a consistent feature of infection in both humans and animals. Its Occurrence is considered a paradox and the magnitude and duration of anorexia appear to ... -
A model for predicting feed intake of growing animals during exposure to pathogens
(2006)A general model is proposed for predicting the effects of subdinical pathogen challenges of different doses and virulence on the relative feed intake (RFI) of animals. The RFI is defined as the feed intake (FI, kg/d) of ...
