A pilot RNA-seq study in 40 pietrain ejaculates to characterize the porcine sperm microbiome
(Elsevier, 2020-08-15)
The microbiome plays a key role in homeostasis and health and it has been also linked to fertility and semen quality in several animal species including swine. Despite the more than likely importance ...
Recent Advances in Enteric Methane Mitigation and the Long Road to Sustainable Ruminant Production
(Annual Reviews, 2024-02)
Mitigation of methane emission, a potent greenhouse gas, is a worldwide priority to limit global warming. A substantial part of anthropogenic methane is emitted by the livestock sector, as methane is a ...
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) ...
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 ...
