Supplementation of xylo-oligosaccharides to suckling piglets promotes the growth of fiber-degrading gut bacterial populations during the lactation and nursery periods
(Nature Research, 2022-07-08)
Modulating early-life microbial colonization through xylo-oligosacharides (XOS) supplementation represents an opportunity to accelerate the establishment of fiber-degrading microbial populations and ...
A gene co-association network regulating gut microbial communities in a Duroc pig population
(BMC, 2021-02-21)
Background. Analyses of gut microbiome composition in livestock species have shown its potential to contribute to the regulation of complex phenotypes. However, little is known about the host genetic ...
Diet, Immunity, and Microbiota Interactions: An Integrative Analysis of the Intestine Transcriptional Response and Microbiota Modulation in Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) Fed an Essential Oils-Based Functional Diet
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-04)
Essential oils (EOs) are promising alternatives to chemotherapeutics in animal production due to their immunostimulant, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, without associated environmental or ...
Selection for feed efficiency using the social effects animal model in growing Duroc pigs: evaluation by simulation
(BMC, 2020-09-29)
Background
Traits recorded on animals that are raised in groups can be analysed with the social effects animal model (SAM). For multiple traits, this model specifies the genetic correlation structure ...
Genomic architecture of carcass and pork traits and their association with immune capacity
(Elsevier, 2023-11-28)
Carcass and pork traits have traditionally been considered of prime importance in pig breeding programmes. However, the changing conditions in modern farming, coupled with antimicrobial resistance issues, ...
Genic and non-genic SNP contributions to additive and dominance genetic effects in purebred and crossbred pig traits
(Nature Research, 2022-03-09)
The present research has estimated the additive and dominance genetic variances of genic and intergenic segments for average daily gain (ADG), backfat thickness (BFT) and pH of the semimembranosus dorsi ...
High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity Increases Brain Mitochondrial Complex I and Lipoxidation-Derived Protein Damage
(MDPI, 2024-01-26)
Obesity is a risk factor for highly prevalent age-related neurodegenerative diseases, the pathogenesis of whichinvolves mitochondrial dysfunction and protein oxidative damage. Lipoxidation, driven by ...
Survival analysis of productive life in Florida dairy goats using a Cox proportional hazards model
(Wiley, 2023-03-18)
Longevity is an economically important trait, since extending the functional life of a doe would allow us to keep the most productive females in the herd as long as possible, and this could result in ...
A Co-Association Network Analysis Reveals Putative Regulators for Health-Related Traits in Pigs
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11-26)
In recent years, the increase in awareness of antimicrobial resistance together with the societal demand of healthier meat products have driven attention to health-related traits in livestock production. ...
Gut barrier-microbiota imbalances in early life lead to higher sensitivity to inflammation in a murine model of C-section delivery
(BMC, 2023-07-03)
Background Most interactions between the host and its microbiota occur at the gut barrier, and primary colonizers
are essential in the gut barrier maturation in the early life. The mother–ofspring ...
