    • Identification of rumen microbial biomarkers linked to methane emission in Holstein dairy cows 

      Ramayo‐Caldas, Yuliaxis; Zingaretti, Laura; Popova, Milka; Estellé, Jordi; Bernard, Aurelien; Nicolas, Pons; Bellot, Pau; Mach, Núria; Rau, Andrea; Roume, Hugo; Perez‐Enciso, Miguel; Faverdin, Philippe; Edouard, Nadège; Ehrlich, Dusko; Morgavi, Diego P.; Renand, Gilles (Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, 2019-08-16) Genètica i Millora Animal
      Mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions is relevant for reducing the environmental impact of ruminant production. In this study, the rumen microbiome from Holstein cows was characterized through a ...
    • Integration of GWAS, pathway and network analyses reveals novel mechanistic insights into the synthesis of milk proteins in dairy cows 

      Pegolo, Sara; Mach, Núria; Ramayo-Caldas, Yuliaxis; Schiavon, Stefano; Bittante, Giovanni; Cecchinato, Alessio (Scientific Reports, 2018-01-12) Genètica i Millora Animal
      The quantities and proportions of protein fractions have notable effects on the nutritional and technological value of milk. Although much is known about the effects of genetic variants on milk proteins, ...
    • Priming for welfare: gut microbiota is associated with equitation conditions and behavior in horse athletes 

      Mach, Núria; Ruet, Alice; Clark, Allison; Bars-Cortina, David; Ramayo-Caldas, Yuliaxis; Crisci, Elisa; Pennarun, Samuel; Dhorne-Pollet, Sophie; Foury, Aline; Moisan, Marie-Pierre; Lansade, Léa (Scientific Reports, 2020-05-20) Genètica i Millora Animal
      We simultaneously measured the fecal microbiota and multiple environmental and host-related variables in a cohort of 185 healthy horses reared in similar conditions during a period of eight months. The ...
    • SNP co-association and network analyses identify E2F3, KDM5A and BACH2 as key regulators of the bovine milk fatty acid profile 

      Pegolo, Sara; Dadousis, Christos; Mach, Núria; Ramayo-Caldas, Yuliaxis; Mele, Marcello; Conte, Giuseppe; Schiavon, Stefano; Bittante, Giovanni; Cecchinato, Alessio (Scientific Reports, 2017-12-11) Genètica i Millora Animal
      The fatty acid (FA) profle has a considerable impact on the nutritional and technological quality of milk and dairy products. The molecular mechanism underlying the regulation of fat metabolism in ...
    • The Effects of Weaning Methods on Gut Microbiota Composition and Horse Physiology 

      Mach, Núria; Foury, Aline; Kittelmann, Sandra; Reigner, Fabrice; Moroldo, Marco; Ballester, Maria; Esquerré, Diane; Rivière, Julie; Sallé, Guillaume; Gérard, Philippe; Moisan, Marie-Pierre; Lansade, Léa (Frontiers in Physiology, 2017-07-25) Genètica i Millora Animal
      Weaning has been described as one of the most stressful events in the life of horses. Given the importance of the interaction between the gut-brain axis and gut microbiota under stress, we evaluated (i) ...
