  • Dietary Polyunsaturated Fat Reduces Skin Fat as Well as Abdominal Fat in Broiler Chickens 

    Ferrini, G.; Baucells, M. D.; Esteve-Garcia, Enric; Barroeta, A. C. (Poultry Science, 2008-03-01) Nutrició Animal
    The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different dietary fatty acid profiles on the main fat depots of broiler chickens: skin including s.c. fat (SK) and abdominal fat pad (AF). One ...
  • Empirical Bayes factor analyses of quantitative trait loci for gestation length in Iberian x Meishan F2 sows 

    Casellas, J.; Varona Aguado, Luis; Muñoz, G.; Ramírez, O.; Barragán, C.; Tomás, A.; Martínez-Giner, M.; Ovilo, C.; Sánchez, A.; Noguera, José Luis; Rodríguez, C. (Animal, 2008-02-01) Genètica i Millora Animal
    The aim of this study was to investigate chromosomal regions affecting gestation length in sows. An experimental F2 cross between Iberian and Meishan pig breeds was used for this purpose and we genotyped ...
  • New trends in rabbit feeding: influence of nutrition on intestinal health 

    Carabaño, R.; Badiola, Ignacio; Chamorro, S.; García, J.; García-Ruiz, A. I.; García-Rebollar, P.; Gómez-Conde, M. S.; Gutiérrez, I.; Nicodemus, N.; Villamide, M. J.; de Blas, J. C. (Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2008-02-01) Sanitat Animal
    The role of gut barrier against pathogens and its interaction with dietary factors in weaned rabbits affected with digestive disorders, especially epizootic rabbit enteropathy is reviewed. This interaction ...
  • Development and bin mapping of a Rosaceae Conserved Ortholog Set (COS) of markers 

    Cabrera, Antonio; Kozik, Alex; Howad, Werner; Arús, Pere; Iezzoni, Amy F; van der Knaap, Esther (BMC Genomics, 2009-11-29) Genòmica i Biotecnologia
    Background: Detailed comparative genome analyses within the economically important Rosaceae family have not been conducted. This is largely due to the lack of conserved gene-based molecular markers ...
  • A bi-dimensional genome scan for prolificacy traits in pigs shows the existence of multiple epistatic QTL 

    Noguera, José Luis; Rodríguez, Carmen; Varona Aguado, Luis; Tomàs, Anna; Muñoz, Gloria; Ramírez, Oscar; Barragán, Carmen; Arqué, Meritxell; Bidanel, Jean P; Amills, Marcel; Ovilo, Cristina; Sánchez, Armand (BMC Genomics, 2009-12-29) Genètica i Millora Animal
    Background: Prolificacy is the most important trait influencing the reproductive efficiency of pig production systems. The low heritability and sex-limited expression of prolificacy have hindered ...
