Genic and non-genic SNP contributions to additive and dominance genetic effects in purebred and crossbred pig traits
(Nature Research, 2022-03-09)
The present research has estimated the additive and dominance genetic variances of genic and intergenic segments for average daily gain (ADG), backfat thickness (BFT) and pH of the semimembranosus dorsi ...
Effects of meloxicam (Metacam® ) on post-farrowing sow behaviour and piglet performance
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-09-26)
Farrowing is an intrinsically risky process for both the sow and the piglets that can cause welfare and economic problems. The effects
of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam on post-farrowing ...
Enhanced replication fitness of MERS-CoV clade B over clade A strains in camelids explains the dominance of clade B strains in the Arabian Peninsula
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2022-02-01)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) continues infecting humans and dromedary camels. While MERS-CoV strains from the Middle East region are subdivided into two clades (A and B), all ...
Improving pikeperch larviculture by combining environmental, feeding and populational factors
(Elsevier, 2020-05-12)
Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) has a high potential for inland aquaculture diversification in Europe. Bottlenecks (i.e. low survival, cannibalism and deformity rates) hamper further expansion of pikeperch ...
Nucleic acid lateral flow dipstick assay for the duplex detection of Gambierdiscus australes and Gambierdiscus excentricus
(Elsevier, 2021-11-17)
The proliferation of harmful microalgae endangers aquatic ecosystems and can have serious economic implications on a global level. Harmful microalgae and their associated toxins also pose a threat to ...
Development of brown rot epidemics in Spanish peach orchards
(Springer, 2022-04-07)
A new approach to modelling epidemics of
brown rot caused by Monilinia spp. in Ebro Valley
peach orchards has been developed. This compartmental model was subdivided according to the phenological
stages ...
Development of a simple and highly sensitive virion concentration method to detect SARS-CoV-2 in saliva
(Elsevier, 2024-06-15)
Background
Controlling novel coronavirus pandemic infection (COVID-19) is a global challenge, and highly sensitive testing is essential for effective control. The saliva is a promising sample for ...
Diversity across major and candidate genes in European local pig breeds
(Public Library of Science, 2018-11-20)
The aim of this work was to analyse the distribution of causal and candidate mutations associated to relevant productive traits in twenty local European pig breeds. Also, the potential of the SNP panel ...
Genome Assembly and Population Sequencing Reveal Three Populations and Signatures of Insecticide Resistance of Tuta absoluta in Latin America
(Oxford University Press, 2023-04-18)
Tuta absoluta is one of the largest threats to tomato agriculture worldwide. Native to South America, it has rapidly spread throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia over the past two decades. To understand ...
Seaweed Inclusion in Finishing Lamb Diet Promotes Changes in Micronutrient Content and Flavour-Related Compounds of Raw Meat and Dry-Cured Leg (Fenalår)
(MDPI, 2022-04-04)
Innovative feeding strategies tend to improve the quality properties of raw material and dry-cured products. In the present study, Norwegian White female lambs (n = 24) were finished during 35 days on ...
