Data of "Evaluation of feeding behaviour traits to predict efficiency traits in pigs using partial least square regression"

<p>This study explores the potential of using automatically recorded feeding behaviour as a proxy trait for protein and energy efficiency as well as fat gain in Swiss Large White pigs.</p> <p>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 &lsquo;daily feed intake&rsquo;, &lsquo;feeding rate&rsquo;, &lsquo;number of daily visits&rsquo;, &lsquo;duration at visits&rsquo;, &lsquo;feeding occupation&rsquo;, and &lsquo;feed intake per visit&rsquo;.</p> <p>data_description_for_feeding_behaviour.xlsx: meta data for behaviour.txt with descriptions of variables</p>
