Comparative Transcriptome Profile between Iberian Pig Varieties Provides New Insights into Their Distinct Fat Deposition and Fatty Acids Content
(MDPI, 2021-02-27)
The high deposition of intramuscular fat and the content of oleic fatty acid are characteristic of the Iberian pig. These two parameters present great variability and are differentiated amongst the ...
GWA Analysis for Milk Production Traits in Dairy Sheep and Genetic Support for a QTN Influencing Milk Protein Percentage in the LALBA Gene
(Public Library of Science, 2012-10-18)
In this study, we used the Illumina OvineSNP50 BeadChip to conduct a genome-wide association (GWA) analysis for milk
production traits in dairy sheep by analyzing a commercial population of Spanish ...
Integration of GWAS, pathway and network analyses reveals novel mechanistic insights into the synthesis of milk proteins in dairy cows
(Nature Research, 2018-01-12)
The quantities and proportions of protein fractions have notable effects on the nutritional and technological value of milk. Although much is known about the effects of genetic variants on milk proteins, ...
Five genomic regions have a major impact on fat composition in Iberian pigs
(Nature Research, 2019-02-14)
The adipogenic nature of the Iberian pig defines many quality attributes of its fresh meat and dry-cured products. The distinct varieties of Iberian pig exhibit great variability in the genetic parameters ...
Malignant infarction of the middle cerebral artery in a porcine model. A pilot study
(Public Library of Science, 2017-02-24)
Background and purpose. Interspecies variability and poor clinical translation from rodent studies indicate that large gyrencephalic animal stroke models are urgently needed. We present a proof-of-principle ...
Describing variability in pig genes involved in coronavirus infections for a One Health perspective in conservation of animal genetic resources
(Nature Research, 2021-02-09)
Coronaviruses silently circulate in human and animal populations, causing mild to severe diseases. Therefore, livestock are important components of a “One Health” perspective aimed to control these viral ...
Variability in porcine microRNA genes and its association with mRNA expression and lipid phenotypes
(BMC, 2021-05-04)
Background: Mature microRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in repressing the expression of a wide range of
mRNAs. The presence of polymorphic sites in miRNA genes and their corresponding 3′UTR binding ...
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 ...
Machine Learning Prediction of Crossbred Pig Feed Efficiency and Growth Rate From Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
(Frontiers Media, 2020-12-18)
This research assessed the ability of a Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression model to predict pig crossbred (CB) performance from various sources of phenotypic and genotypic information for improving ...
Differential expression of mRNA isoforms in the skeletal muscle of pigs with distinct growth and fatness profiles
(BMC, 2018-02-14)
Background: The identification of genes differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of pigs displaying distinct
growth and fatness profiles might contribute to identify the genetic factors that ...
