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 ...
Identification of strong candidate genes for backfat and intramuscular fatty acid composition in three crosses based on the Iberian pig
(Nature Research, 2020-08-18)
Meat quality has an important genetic component and can be modified by the fatty acid (FA) composition and the amount of fat contained in adipose tissue and muscle. The present study aimed to find genomic ...
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. ...
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 ...
