What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Animal science
- Endocrinology
Animal science, Breed, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Composition are his primary areas of study.
Within one scientific family, Calvin L. Ferrell focuses on topics pertaining to Lactation under Animal science, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cattle feeding and Beef cattle.
His work carried out in the field of Breed brings together such families of science as Slaughter weight, Meat Flavor and Carcass composition.
The various areas that Calvin L. Ferrell examines in his Endocrinology study include Brahman and Fatty acid.
Calvin L. Ferrell has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Hay and Forage.
His Metabolism research includes themes of Visceral organ, Weight gain, Propionate, Adipose tissue and Compensatory growth.
His most cited work include:
- Cow Type and the Nutritional Environment: Nutritional Aspects (231 citations)
- Energy Utilization by Mature, Nonpregnant, Nonlactating Cows of Different Types (152 citations)
- Effects of Postweaning Rate of Gain on Onset of Puberty and Productive Performance of Heifers of Different Breeds (146 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Calvin L. Ferrell mostly deals with Animal science, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Breed and Crossbreed.
His studies deal with areas such as Veterinary medicine and Feed conversion ratio as well as Animal science.
Calvin L. Ferrell has included themes like Fetus, Vein and Mesenteric Vein in his Endocrinology study.
He focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to topics relating to Propionate and, in certain cases, Metabolite.
His studies in Breed integrate themes in fields like Body weight, Weight gain, Lactation and Sire.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Ruminant animal, Allele and Candidate gene in addition to Crossbreed.
He most often published in these fields:
- Animal science (76.99%)
- Endocrinology (38.05%)
- Internal medicine (38.05%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2020)?
- Animal science (76.99%)
- Beef cattle (17.70%)
- Crossbreed (17.70%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Calvin L. Ferrell focuses on Animal science, Beef cattle, Crossbreed, Breed and Manure.
Calvin L. Ferrell works mostly in the field of Animal science, limiting it down to concerns involving Veterinary medicine and, occasionally, Dairy cattle.
His Beef cattle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic correlation, Biotechnology, Body weight, Heritability and Residual feed intake.
Calvin L. Ferrell combines subjects such as Allele and Candidate gene with his study of Crossbreed.
His Manure research includes elements of Incubation and Fermentation, Food science, Starch.
His Dry matter research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Urea and Animal feed.
Between 2004 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Association, effects and validation of polymorphisms within the NCAPG - LCORL locus located on BTA6 with feed intake, gain, meat and carcass traits in beef cattle (91 citations)
- Partial-genome evaluation of postweaning feed intake and efficiency of crossbred beef cattle. (61 citations)
- Prevalence and level of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in feces and on hides of feedlot steers fed diets with or without wet distillers grains with solubles. (60 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Biochemistry
- Animal science
Calvin L. Ferrell spends much of his time researching Beef cattle, Animal science, Residual feed intake, Crossbreed and Feed conversion ratio.
His research in Beef cattle intersects with topics in Urea, Fodder, Ammonia and Manure.
When carried out as part of a general Animal science research project, his work on Brahman, Silage and Hay is frequently linked to work in Feces and Campylobacter, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His Crossbreed study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Veterinary medicine, Additive genetic effects and Candidate gene.
His research integrates issues of Breed, Biotechnology, Genetic variation and Heritability in his study of Feed conversion ratio.
He regularly ties together related areas like Genetic correlation in his Breed studies.
