Integrating genome-wide co-association and gene expression to identify putative regulators and predictors of feed efficiency in pigs
(BMC, 2019-09-02)
Background: Feed efciency (FE) has a major impact on the economic sustainability of pig production. We used a
systems‑based approach that integrates single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) co‑association ...
Longitudinal analysis of direct and indirect effects on average daily gain in rabbits using a structured antedependence model
(BMC, 2018-05-10)
Background: Indirect genetic efects (IGE) are important components of various traits in several species. Although
the intensity of social interactions between partners likely vary over time, very few ...
Genomic diversity, linkage disequilibrium and selection signatures in European local pig breeds assessed with a high density SNP chip
(Nature Research, 2019-09-19)
Genetic characterization of local breeds is essential to preserve their genomic variability, to advance conservation policies and to contribute to their promotion and sustainability. Genomic diversity ...
About the existence of common determinants of gene expression in the porcine liver and skeletal muscle
(BMC, 2019-06-24)
Background: The comparison of expression QTL (eQTL) maps obtained in different tissues is an essential step to
understand how gene expression is genetically regulated in a context-dependent manner. In ...
Understanding host-microbiota interactions in the commercial piglet around weaning
(Nature Research, 2021-12-06)
Weaning is a critical period in the life of pigs with repercussions on their health and welfare and on the
economy of the swine industry. This study aimed to assess the efect of the commercial early ...
Describing variability in pig genes involved in coronavirus infections for a One Health perspective in conservation of animal genetic resources
(Nature Research, 2021-02-09)
Coronaviruses silently circulate in human and animal populations, causing mild to severe diseases. Therefore, livestock are important components of a “One Health” perspective aimed to control these viral ...
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 ...
Study of using marker assisted selection on a beef cattle breeding program by model comparison
(Elsevier, 2012-03-31)
A data set of a commercial Nellore beef cattle selection program was used to compare
breeding models that assumed or not markers effects to estimate the breeding values,
when a reduced number of animals ...
GWA Analysis for Milk Production Traits in Dairy Sheep and Genetic Support for a QTN Influencing Milk Protein Percentage in the LALBA Gene
(Public Library of Science, 2012-10-18)
In this study, we used the Illumina OvineSNP50 BeadChip to conduct a genome-wide association (GWA) analysis for milk
production traits in dairy sheep by analyzing a commercial population of Spanish ...
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 ...
