Implication

This research reveals improved growth performance and muscle gene expression in calves following vitamin A injections, indicating the importance of maternal nutrition.

Key Points

Vitamin A injection improved the average daily gain (ADG) in male calves, indicating enhanced growth performance.
Weaning body weight (BW) was significantly greater in calves receiving vitamin A injections compared to control groups.
Muscle biopsy and gene expression analysis revealed notable differences in muscle transcriptomics among treatment groups.
The findings suggest maternal vitamin A injection particularly benefits male calves’ muscle development and growth.
