Longitudinal modelling of performance and feed efficiency traits in growing Duroc pigs
(Elsevier, 2022-01-07)
In this study we used the phenotypic information of 1,499 Duroc pigs, recorded longitudinally in the age period from 110 to 200 days of age for individual daily feed intake (DFI), backfat thickness (BF) ...
Modeling microRNA-driven post-transcriptional regulation using exon–intron split analysis in pigs
(Wiley, 2022-07-10)
The contribution of microRNAs (miRNAs) to mRNA post-transcriptional regulation has often been explored by the post hoc selection of downregulated genes and determining whether they harbor binding sites ...
Mixed management in growing and finishing pigs: Differences between gender and their impacts on behavior, growth performance, and physiological parameters
(Public Library of Science, 2023-04-13)
Mixing, a common management strategy used to regroup pigs, has been reported to impair individual performance and affect pig welfare because of the establishment of a new social hierarchy after regrouping. ...
Breeding farm, level of feeding and presence of antibiotics in the feed influence rabbit cecal microbiota
(BMC, 2020-11-02)
Background
The effect of the production environment and different management practices in rabbit cecal microbiota remains poorly understood. While previous studies have proved the impact of the age or ...
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 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 ...
Gut microbiome and resistome characterization of pigs treated with commonly used post-weaning diarrhea treatments
(BMC, 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 ...
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 ...
kernInt: A Kernel Framework for Integrating Supervised and Unsupervised Analyses in Spatio-Temporal Metagenomic Datasets
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-28)
The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies allowed relative quantification of microbiome communities and their spatial and temporal variation. In recent years, supervised learning (i.e., ...
