Breeding programmes to improve male reproductive performance and efficiency of insemination dose production in paternal lines: feasibility and limitations
(Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, 2013-06-26)
This paper reviews the current genetic knowledge on issues related with the efficient use of bucks
in artificial insemination (AI). Differences between lines have been found to be relevant in semen ...
Zebrafish as a Model to Screen the Potential of Fatty Acids in Reproduction
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019-01-31)
Sperm quality is an important topic in general health, chemotherapy, and gamete preservation technology. Fatty acid (FA) composition of membranes, which is influenced by the diet, plays key roles in ...

(MDPI, 2023-10-28)
Monitoring the antimicrobial susceptibility of last-resource antimicrobials for veterinary
pathogens is urgently needed from a one-health perspective. The objective of this study was to analyze
the ...
The effect of feeder system and diet on welfare, performance and meat quality, of growing-finishing Iberian × Duroc pigs under high environmental temperatures
(Elsevier, 2020-02-12)
The present study investigated the replacement of 5% of starch (ST) by 5% of sunflower oil (SO), with or without feed restriction, in the diet of growing-finishing Iberian × Duroc pigs exposed to heat ...
Whole-genome sequencing reveals insights into the adaptation of French Charolais cattle to Cuban tropical conditions
(BMC, 2021-01-04)
Background: In the early 20th century, Cuban farmers imported Charolais cattle (CHFR) directly from France. These
animals are now known as Chacuba (CHCU) and have become adapted to the rough environmental ...
A functional regulatory variant of MYH3 influences muscle fiber-type composition and intramuscular fat content in pigs
(Public Library of Science, 2019-10-11)
Muscle development and lipid accumulation in muscle critically affect meat quality of livestock. However, the genetic factors underlying myofiber-type specification and intramuscular fat (IMF) accumulation ...
Critical analysis of life cycle inventory datasets for organic crop production systems
(Springer, 2022-04-20)
Purpose
Organic agriculture (OA) has gained widespread popularity due to its view as a more sustainable method of farming. Yet OA and conventional agriculture (CA) can be found to have similar or varying ...
The effect of diet on the structure of gut bacterial community of sympatric pair of whitefishes (Coregonus lavaretus): one story more
(PeerJ, 2019-12-03)
In the Coregonus lavaretus complex may be found lacustrine sympatric pairs, which serves as an intriguing model for studying different aspects of fish evolutionary biology. One such sympatric whitefish ...
Gamete quality and management for in vitro fertilisation in meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Elsevier, 2019-05-14)
The aquaculture of meagre (Argyrosomus regius) requires methods for the control of reproduction that enable the production of families from specific individuals for selective breeding programs. We ...
Parasitic copepods Caligus lacustris (Copepoda: Caligidae) on the rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss in cage aquaculture: morphology, population demography, and first insights into phylogenetic relationships
(Springer, 2021-06-17)
Herein, data on rainbow trout infections with the copepod Caligus lacustris in cage aquaculture on Lake Ladoga is presented. Caligus lacustris (n = 127 ex.) were collected from a farm in Lake Ladoga ...
