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. ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Association between the pig genome and its gut microbiota composition
(Nature Research, 2019-06-19)
The gut microbiota has been evolving with its host along the time creating a symbiotic relationship. In this study, we assess the role of the host genome in the modulation of the microbiota composition ...
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 ...
