Data of "Short communication: Applicability of feeding behaviour traits as high-throughput phenotyping methods for identifying protein-efficient pigs"

This study explores the potential of using automatically recorded feeding behaviour as a proxy trait for protein efficiency by investigating the relationship between feeding behaviour and protein efficiency in Swiss Large White pigs.

behaviour.txt: A tab-delimited txt file of data used to investigate the relationship between feeding behaviour traits and protein efficiency in Swiss Large White pigs. Feeding behaviour traits taken were ‘daily feed intake’, ‘feeding rate’, ‘number of daily visits’, ‘duration at visits’, ‘feeding occupation’, and ‘feed intake per visit’.
