A bi-dimensional genome scan for prolificacy traits in pigs shows the existence of multiple epistatic QTL
(BMC Genomics, 2009-12-29)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 ... -
A consensus linkage map for molecular markers and Quantitative Trait Loci associated with economically important traits in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(BMC Plant Biology, 2011-07-28)Background: A number of molecular marker linkage maps have been developed for melon (Cucumis melo L.) over the last two decades. However, these maps were constructed using different marker sets, thus, ... -
A genome-wide association analysis for porcine serum lipid traits reveals the existence of age-specific genetic determinants
(BMC Genomics, 2014-09-04)Background: The genetic determinism of blood lipid concentrations, the main risk factor for atherosclerosis, is practically unknown in species other than human and mouse. Even in model organisms, little ... -
A set of EST-SNPs for map saturation and cultivar identification in melon
(BMC Plant Biology, 2009-07-15)Background: There are few genomic tools available in melon (Cucumis melo L.), a member of the Cucurbitaceae, despite its importance as a crop. Among these tools, genetic maps have been constructed ... -
Almond population genomics and non-additive GWAS reveal new insights into almond dissemination history and candidate genes for nut traits and blooming time
(Horticulture Research, 2023-09-25)Domestication drastically changed crop genomes, fixing alleles of interest and creating different genetic populations. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are a powerful tool to detect these alleles ... -
An association analysis between a polymorphism in the SEC24A gene and lipid traits recorded in Duroc pigs
(Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2021-10-05)By regulating the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR), the SEC24A protein modulates the clearance of plasma cholesterol in mice. The whole-genome sequencing of five Duroc boars that ... -
An oligo-based microarray offers novel transcriptomic approaches for the analysis of pathogen resistance and fruit quality traits in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(BMC Genomics, 2009-10-12)Background: Melon (Cucumis melo) is a horticultural specie of significant nutritional value, which belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family, whose economic importance is second only to the Solanaceae. Its ... -
Analysis of expressed sequence tags generated from full-length enriched cDNA libraries of melon
(BMC Genomics, 2011-05-20)Background: Melon (Cucumis melo), an economically important vegetable crop, belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family which includes several other important crops such as watermelon, cucumber, and pumpkin. ... -
Analysis of porcine MUC4 gene as a candidate gene for prolificacy QTL on SSC13 in an Iberian × Meishan F2 population
(BMC Genetics, 2011-10-31)Background: Reproductive traits, such as prolificacy, are of great interest to the pig industry. Better understanding of their genetic architecture should help to increase the efficiency of pig ... -
Analysis of the melon (Cucumis melo) small RNAome by high-throughput pyrosequencing
(BMC Genomics, 2011-08-03)Background: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a commercially important fruit crop that is cultivated worldwide. The melon research community has recently benefited from the determination of a complete draft ... -
Annotated 18S and 28S rDNA reference sequences of taxa in the planktonic diatom family Chaetocerotaceae
(PLOS ONE, 2018-12-26)The species-rich diatom family Chaetocerotaceae is common in the coastal marine phytoplankton worldwide where it is responsible for a substantial part of the primary production. Despite its relevance ... -
ASSIsT: an automatic SNP scoring tool for in- and outbreeding species
(Bioinformatics, 2015-08-06)ASSIsT (Automatic SNP ScorIng Tool) is a user-friendly customized pipeline for efficient calling and filtering of SNPs from Illumina Infinium arrays, specifically devised for custom genotyping arrays. ... -
Comparative analysis of rosaceous genomes and the reconstruction of a putative ancestral genome for the family
(BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2011-01-12)Background: Comparative genome mapping studies in Rosaceae have been conducted until now by aligning genetic maps within the same genus, or closely related genera and using a limited number of common ... -
Competing risk analyses of longevity in Duroc sows with a special emphasis on leg conformation
(Animal, 2009-01-01)A competing risk approach was used to evaluate the influence of several factors on culling risk for 587 Duroc sows. Three different analyses were performed according to whether sow failure was due to ... -
Construction of an almond linkage map in an Australian population Nonpareil × Lauranne
