Segregation of Regulatory Polymorphisms with Effects on the Gluteus Medius Transcriptome in a Purebred Pig Population
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-24)
Background: The main goal of the present study was to analyse the genetic architecture of mRNA expression in muscle, a
tissue with an outmost economic importance for pig breeders. Previous studies have ...
Selection of Internal Control Genes for Real-Time Quantitative PCR in Ovary and Uterus of Sows across Pregnancy
(Public Library of Science, 2013-06-13)
Background: Reproductive traits play a key role in pig production in order to reduce costs and increase economic returns. Among others, gene expression analyses represent a useful approach to study ...
Genotype by feeding regimen interactions for slaughter traits in rabbit and expected responses under restricted and full feeding
(Wiley, 2022-05-12)
The interaction between the genotype and feeding regimen (G×FR) for slaughter traits was estimated from data corresponding to 2557 animals under full (FF) and 2424 with restricted feeding (RF). Expected ...
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. ...
Analysis of porcine MUC4 gene as a candidate gene for prolificacy QTL on SSC13 in an Iberian × Meishan F2 population
(BMC, 2011-10-31)
Background: Reproductive traits, such as prolificacy, are of great interest to the pig industry. Better understanding
of their genetic architecture should help to increase the efficiency of pig ...
Risk factors and genetic parameters of longevity in Spanish dairy goat breeds using a Weibull proportional hazards model
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023-12-07)
The aim of this study was to assess the most important risk factors that influence productive life (PL) and to estimate genetic parameters for PL using a Weibull proportional hazards model in two Spanish ...
An association analysis between a polymorphism in the SEC24A gene and lipid traits recorded in Duroc pigs
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2021-10-05)
By regulating the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR), the SEC24A protein modulates the clearance of plasma cholesterol in mice. The whole-genome sequencing of five Duroc boars that ...
Genome-wide linkage analysis of QTL for growth and body composition employing the PorcineSNP60 BeadChip
(BMC, 2012-05-20)
Background: The traditional strategy to map QTL is to use linkage analysis employing a limited number of markers.
These analyses report wide QTL confidence intervals, making very difficult to identify ...
Influence of dietary n-3 long-chain fatty acids on microbial diversity and composition of sows’ feces, colostrum, milk, and suckling piglets’ feces
(Frontiers Media, 2022-12-05)
Introduction: Very little is known about the impact of n-3 long-chain fatty acids (n-3 LCFAs) on the microbiota of sows and their piglets. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of n-3 LCFA ...
Annotated 18S and 28S rDNA reference sequences of taxa in the planktonic diatom family Chaetocerotaceae
(PLOS, 2018-12-26)
The species-rich diatom family Chaetocerotaceae is common in the coastal marine phytoplankton worldwide where it is responsible for a substantial part of the primary production. Despite its relevance ...
