Rural veterinarian's perception and practices in terms of biosecurity across three European countries
(Wiley, 2017-09-21)
The implementation of biosecurity measures in the animal health and production context is quite broad and aims at limiting the risk of introduction and spread of diseases. Veterinarians play a major ...
Genotyping by Sequencing in Almond: SNP Discovery, Linkage Mapping, and Marker Design
(Genetics Society of America, 2017-11-15)
In crop plant genetics, linkage maps provide the basis for the mapping of loci that affect important traits and for the selection of markers to be applied in crop improvement. In outcrossing species ...
Growth of total fat and lean and of primal cuts is affected by the sex type
(Elsevier, 2017-02-10)
Knowledge of tissue and cuts growth depending on the sex could be used to improve performance and efficiency. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive technology that enables the study of the body ...
