Gut microbiome and resistome characterization of pigs treated with commonly used post-weaning diarrhea treatments
(Animal Microbiome, 2024-05-03)Background The global burden of antimicrobial resistance demands additional measures to ensure the sustainable and conscious use of antimicrobials. For the swine industry, the post-weaning period is ... -
Reproductive behaviour and fertilized spawns in cultured Solea senegalensis broodstock co-housed with wild breeders during their juvenile stages
(General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2024-05-07)The reproductive failure of Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) cultured males (reared entirely in captivity from egg through to adult) that do not participate in reproductive behaviours to fertilise ... -
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 ... -
Gene and QTL detection in a three-way barley cross under selection by a mixed model with kinship information using SNPs
(Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2011-03-04)Quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection is commonly performed by analysis of designed segregating populations derived from two inbred parental lines, where absence of selection, mutation and genetic ... -
