(A) CS and (B) intrinsic (relative to CS activity) CCO activities in the GM and TB muscles of young horses receiving either soybean oil (CON; n = 5) or conjugated linoleic acid (CLA; n = 5) for 12 wk. Due to the lack of effect of time and any interactions with time, all time points have been combined. Overall effects of dietary treatment (P = 0.04, P = 0.06), muscle group (P < 0.0001, P = 0.01), and diet × muscle group (P = 0.05, P = 0.5) for panels A and B, respectively, as determined by ANOVA. ^a,b,cBars with different letters differ (P < 0.05). *GM differs from TB (P = 0.01).
