Identification of transcriptional regulatory variants in pig duodenum, liver, and muscle tissues
(Oxford University Press, 2023-06-24)
Background
In humans and livestock species, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been applied to study the association between variants distributed across the genome and a phenotype of interest. ...
Sequence-based GWAS, network and pathway analyses reveal genes co-associated with milk cheese-making properties and milk composition in Montbéliarde cows
(BMC, 2019-07-01)
Background
Milk quality in dairy cattle is routinely assessed via analysis of mid-infrared (MIR) spectra; this approach can also be used to predict the milk’s cheese-making properties (CMP) and ...
Impact of Nutritional Strategies to Prevent Post-Weaning Diarrhoea on Performance, Behaviour, and Microbiota in Piglets from Organic Farming
(MDPI, 2024-06-08)
Organic livestock farming is committed to high environmental and animal welfare standards, although pathologies such as post-weaning diarrhoea (PWD) may appear. The main objective of this study was to ...
Genetic architecture of innate and adaptive immune cells in pigs
(Frontiers Media, 2023-02-06)
Pig industry is facing new challenges that make necessary to reorient breeding programs to produce more robust and resilient pig populations. The aim of the present work was to study the genetic determinism ...
SNP co-association and network analyses identify E2F3, KDM5A and BACH2 as key regulators of the bovine milk fatty acid profile
(Nature Research, 2017-12-11)
The fatty acid (FA) profle has a considerable impact on the nutritional and technological quality of milk
and dairy products. The molecular mechanism underlying the regulation of fat metabolism in ...
Priming for welfare: gut microbiota is associated with equitation conditions and behavior in horse athletes
(Nature Research, 2020-05-20)
We simultaneously measured the fecal microbiota and multiple environmental and host-related variables in a cohort of 185 healthy horses reared in similar conditions during a period of eight months. The ...
Single-step genome-wide association study for social genetic effects and direct genetic effects on growth in Landrace pigs
(Nature Research, 2020-09-11)
In livestock social interactions, social genetic effects (SGE) represent associations between phenotype of one individual and genotype of another. Such associations occur when the trait of interest is ...
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) ...
Integration of GWAS, pathway and network analyses reveals novel mechanistic insights into the synthesis of milk proteins in dairy cows
(Nature Research, 2018-01-12)
The quantities and proportions of protein fractions have notable effects on the nutritional and technological value of milk. Although much is known about the effects of genetic variants on milk proteins, ...
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 ...
