The effects of dietary energy level on the growth performance of yaks (Bos grunniens) were studied based on omics technique
In conclusion, increasing dietary energy improves growth, nutrient utilization, and beneficial microbiota profiles in yaks. A medium-energy diet (NEg: 4.46 MJ/kg) optimizes fermentation and microbial balance, providing a scientific basis for precise nutritional strategies in yak production on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
