SNP co-association and network analyses identify E2F3, KDM5A and BACH2 as key regulators of the bovine milk fatty acid profile
(Scientific Reports, 2017-12-11)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 ... -
SNP variation in the promoter of the PRKAG3 gene and association with meat quality traits in pig
(BMC Genetics, 2012-07-25)Background: The PRKAG3 gene encodes the γ3 subunit of adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), a protein that plays a key role in energy metabolism in skeletal muscle. Non-synonymous ... -
Social network analysis of agonistic behaviour and its association with economically important traits in pigs
(Animals, 2020-11-16)Aggression behaviour has several negative consequences on the performance and welfare of pigs. Here, the Social Network Analysis (SNA) approach was employed to (1) identify individual traits that describe ... -
Societal preferences for the conservation of traditional pig breeds and their agroecosystems: Addressing preference heterogeneity and protest responses through deterministic allocation and scale-extended models
(Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2021-12-30)We assess preferences of inhabitants of the island of Majorca (Spain) for the conservation of traditional, ex-tensively reared Majorcan Black Pigs and the linked agro-ecosystem, using ... -
Soil microclimate changes affect soil fungal communities in a Mediterranean pine forest
(New Phytologist, 2018-05-14)Soil microclimate is a potentially important regulator of the composition of plant‐associated fungal communities in climates with significant drought periods. Here, we investigated the spatio‐temporal ... -
