Consequences of supplying methyl donors during pregnancy on the methylome of the offspring from lactating and non-lactating dairy cattle
(Public Library of Science, 2017-12-11)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential effects of methyl donor supplementation of pregnant animals in the presence or absence of a concomitant lactation on the methylome of the offspring. ...
Nutrient supply affects the mRNA expression profile of the porcine skeletal muscle
(BMC, 2017-08-10)
Background: The genetic basis of muscle fat deposition in pigs is not well known. So far, we have only identified a limited number of genes involved in the absorption, transport, storage and catabolism ...
Influence of pre-storage incubation on hatchability traits, thyroid hormones, antioxidative status and immunity of newly hatched chicks at two chicken breeder flock ages
(Elsevier, 2017-04-17)
Egg storage longer than 7 days is associated with negative effects on hatchability traits. Pre-storage incubation has been a suggested method to reduce the negative effects of long-term storage times ...
Pentaplacodinium saltonense gen. et sp. nov. (Dinophyceae) and its relationship to the cyst-defined genus Operculodinium and yessotoxin-producing Protoceratium reticulatum
(Elsevier, 2017-12-16)
Strains of a dinoflagellate from the Salton Sea, previously identified as Protoceratium reticulatum and yessotoxin producing, have been reexamined morphologically and genetically and Pentaplacodinium ...
Population genetics of the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) introduced in North America and Europe
(Nature Research, 2017-01-03)
Globally, the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) stands as the second most important bivalve
species in fisheries and aquaculture. Native to the Pacific coast of Asia, it is now well-established ...
Modeling ecotoxicity impacts in vineyard production: Addressing spatial differentiation for copper fungicides
(Elsevier, 2017-10-28)
Application of plant protection products (PPP) is a fundamental practice for viticulture. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has proved to be a useful tool to assess the environmental performance of agricultural ...
Influence of chemical composition on biochemical methane potential of fruit and vegetable waste
(Elsevier, 2017-05-26)
This study investigates the influence of chemical composition on the biochemical methane potential (BMP) of twelve different batches of fruit and vegetable waste (FVW) with different compositions collected ...
LCFA Uptake and FAT/CD36: molecular cloning, tissue expression and mRNA expression responses to dietary oil sources in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus)
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-08-10)
The fatty acid translocase (FAT/CD36) plays an important role in trans-membrane uptake of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) and has been identified and described in many organisms, while little is known ...
RNA-seq based detection of differentially expressed genes in the skeletal muscle of Duroc pigs with distinct lipid profiles
(Nature Research, 2017-02-14)
We have used a RNA-seq approach to investigate differential expression in the skeletal muscle of swine
(N=52) with divergent lipid profiles i.e. HIGH (increased intramuscular fat and muscle saturated ...
Joint QTL mapping and gene expression analysis identify positional candidate genes influencing pork quality traits
(Nature Research, 2017-01-05)
Meat quality traits have an increasing importance in the pig industry because of their strong impact on
consumer acceptance. Herewith, we have combined phenotypic and microarray expression data to ...
