Application of the first canonical variable in the evaluation of animal production trials

Abstract: -The objective of this work was to evaluate the inter treatment discrimination according to feed conversion efficiency in several animal performance experiments. The variables investigated were: feed conversion ratio (FCR = intake: production ratio), feed efficiency index (FEI = production: intake ratio) and bio-nutritional index (BNI). The BNI was constructed from the first canonical variable obtained based on the multivariate analysis of variance of the intake and animal production (weight gain or milk produ… Show more

“…Bionutritional efficiency (Table 3) decreased linearly with increase in body weight, confirming FC, wherein animals slaughtered at a higher weight are less efficient. However, many are the results found in the literature evaluating slaughter weight, breed group, feeding level and types of diet, in which no differences are found for FC; nevertheless, analyzing the bionutritional efficiency, some differences can be verified (Euclides Filho et al, 2001;Euclides Filho et al, 2003;Detmann et al, 2005;Mello, 2007). According to Detmann et al (2005), bionutritional efficiency ensures maximum discrimination between CV -coefficient of variation; WCU -diet with coated urea; wCU -diet without coated urea.…”

“…Again, the numerical values of feed conversion were higher as the levels of sunflower meal increased, though without presenting statistical difference. Detmann, Cecon and Andreotti (2005) have criticized the use of parametric tests on data derived from divisions, such as feed conversion (feed conversion = feed intake / weight gain). These authors proposed the use of canonical variables for evaluation of the relationship between intake and weight gain, affirming that they would be statistically appropriate.…”

“…Contudo, diversas inconsistências estatísticas e nutricionais são apontadas sobre a conversão alimentar, o que pode comprometer a confiabilidade das inferências obtidas a partir desta (Guidoni, 1994;Detmann et al, 2005;Detmann et al, 2011).…”

“…Para contornar esses inconvenientes, tem sido proposta a avaliação simultânea dessas variáveis por intermédio da combinação linear baseada na técnica de variáveis canônicas, o que produz uma nova variável que preserva a característica de distribuição normal e engloba as propriedades discriminatórias das variáveis originais (Guidoni, 1994;Euclides Filho et al, 2002;Detmann et al, 2005). Esta nova variável, denominada índice bionutricional, possui, contudo, o inconveniente de seu valor ser dependente da estrutura da matriz residual dos dados do experimento avaliado (Detmann et al, 2005).…”
