Expression-based GWAS identifies variants, gene interactions and key regulators affecting intramuscular fatty acid content and composition in porcine meat
(Nature Research, 2016-08-18)
The aim of this work is to better understand the genetic mechanisms determining two complex traits
affecting porcine meat quality: intramuscular fat (IMF) content and its fatty acid (FA) composition. ...
Development and validation of direct PCR and quantitative PCR assays for the rapid, sensitive, and economical detection of porcine circovirus 3
(SAGE Publications, 2018-04-09)
Since the identification of species Porcine circovirus 2, the relevance of genus Circovirus has increased given its impact on the swine industry. A new species (Porcine circovirus 3, PCV-3) has been ...
Mitochondrial aquaporin-8-mediated hydrogen peroxide transport is essential for teleost spermatozoon motility
(Nature Research, 2015-01-14)
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), cause oxidative cell damage and inhibit sperm function. In most oviparous fishes that spawn in seawater (SW), spermatozoa may be ...
Reproductive success of a marine teleost was correlated with proactive and reactive stress‐coping styles
(Wiley, 2019-01-23)
The present study investigated the relationship between reproductive success and stress‐coping styles in gilthead seabream Sparus aurata in captivity. To characterise stress‐coping styles, a total of ...
Differential expression of mRNA isoforms in the skeletal muscle of pigs with distinct growth and fatness profiles
(BMC, 2018-02-14)
Background: The identification of genes differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of pigs displaying distinct
growth and fatness profiles might contribute to identify the genetic factors that ...
Exploratory metagenomic analyses of periweaning failure-to-thrive syndrome-affected pigs
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2018-11-09)
Modern pig farming is characterised by the emergence of several syndromes whose aetiology is unclear or has a multifactorial origin, including periweaning failure-to-thrive syndrome (PFTS). In fact, its ...
In quest of reducing the environmental impacts of food production and consumption
(Elsevier, 2016-09-09)
Food supply chains are increasingly associated with environmental and socio-economic impacts. An
increasing global population, an evolution in consumers' needs, and changes in consumption models
pose ...
Assessment of unconsciousness in pigs during exposure to nitrogen and carbon dioxide mixtures
(Elsevier, 2012-10-26)
The aim of this study was to assess unconsciousness in pigs during and after the exposure to gas mixtures of 70% nitrogen (N2)
and 30% carbon dioxide (CO2) (70N30C), 80% N2 and 20% CO2 (80N20C) and 85% ...
Proposed bursa of fabricius weight to body weight ratio standard in commercial broilers
(Elsevier, 2015-09-01)
Several causes may induce change and atrophy in the bursa of Fabricius (BF). Databases on BF standards are available from published studies, however, updated references are needed to adjust the
BF ...
A shift in Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) history paradigm: Phylodynamic analyses reveal an ancient origin and prolonged undetected circulation in the worldwide swine population
(Wiley Open Access, 2019-09-30)
The identification of a new circovirus (Porcine circovirus 3, PCV-3) has raised a remarkable concern because of some analogies with Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2). Preliminary results suggest an extremely ...
