Effect of production system before the finishing period on carcass, meat and fat qualities of beef
(Elsevier, 2013-08-01)
Twenty Gascon young bulls that had been reared either in intensive conditions (INT) (n = 10) with early weaning at 3 to 4 months,
or in a traditional extensive (EXT) system (n = 10) with weaning at 7 ...
Effect of different fertilization strategies on nitrogen balance in an outdoor potted crop of Osteospermum ecklonis (DC.) Norl. ‘Purple Red’ under Mediterranean climate conditions
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2013-07-15)
Fertilization management and meteorological conditions can affect leachate composition and the balance of nitrogen
(N) added during the cultivation of ornamentals. The main objectives of this study ...
Genome-wide analysis of porcine backfat and intramuscular fat fatty acid composition using high-density genotyping and expression data
(BMC, 2013-12-02)
Background: Porcine fatty acid composition is a key factor for quality and nutritive value of pork. Several QTLs for
fatty acid composition have been reported in diverse fat tissues. The results obtained ...
Polymorphism in the ELOVL6 Gene Is Associated with a Major QTL Effect on Fatty Acid Composition in Pigs
(Public Library of Science, 2013-01-14)
Background: The ELOVL fatty acid elongase 6 (ELOVL6), the only elongase related to de novo lipogenesis, catalyzes the ratelimiting step in the elongation cycle by controlling the fatty acid balance in ...
Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Dietary-Induced Pseudo-Albinism during Post-Embryonic Development of Solea senegalensis (Kaup, 1858)
(Public Library of Science, 2013-07-16)
The appearance of the pseudo-albino phenotype was investigated in developing Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis, Kaup
1858) larvae at morphological and molecular levels. In order to induce the development ...
Variability in glutenin subunit composition of Mediterranean durum wheat germplasm and its relationship with gluten strength
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-01-23)
The allelic composition at five glutenin loci was assessed by one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1D SDS–PAGE) on a set of 155 landraces (from 21 Mediterranean ...
Exploring patterns of variation in amphipod assemblages at multiple spatial scales: natural variability versus coastal aquaculture effect
(Inter Research, 2013-01-03)
A 5-factor design survey was carried out to examine the spatial distribution at different scales of amphipod assemblages and sedimentary variables in soft bottoms adjacent to coastal aquaculture ...
Analysis of porcine adipose tissue transcriptome reveals differences in de novo fatty acid synthesis in pigs with divergent muscle fatty acid composition
(BMC, 2013-12-01)
Background: In pigs, adipose tissue is one of the principal organs involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism.
It is particularly involved in the overall fatty acid synthesis with consequences in ...
