  • Metabolic, transcriptomic, and genetic analyses of candidate genes for seed size in watermelon 

    Wang, Xiqing; Yan, Wen; Real Tortosa, Núria; Jia, Yunhe; Yongkai, Fu; Zhang, Xuejun; You, Haibo; Cai, Yi; Liu, Bin (Frontiers in Plant Science, 2024-07-16) Protecció Vegetal Sostenible
    Seed size (SS) constitutes a pivotal trait in watermelon breeding. In this study, we present findings from an examination of two watermelon accessions, namely, BW85 and F211. Seeds from BW85 exhibited ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
