Abstract:
|
In this master's thesis we combine techniques from the field of Compositional Data Analysis (CoDA) with mixed-effects models to study the relationship between dairy calves' growth and their amino acid compositon in blood, being the detection of potentially growth-limiting amino acids that can provoke changes in urea levels of particular interest. |
