Identification of eQTLs associated with lipid metabolism in Longissimus dorsi muscle of pigs with different genetic backgrounds
(Nature Research, 2020-06-17)
Intramuscular fat content and its fatty acid composition affect porcine meat quality and its nutritional value. The present work aimed to identify genomic variants regulating the expression in the porcine ...
Gut eukaryotic communities in pigs: diversity, composition and host genetics contribution
(BMC, 2020-05-07)
Background
The pig gut microbiome harbors thousands of species of archaea, bacteria, viruses and eukaryotes such as protists and fungi. However, since the majority of published studies have been focused ...
Inter-Observer Repeatability of Indicators of Consciousness after Waterbath Stunning in Broiler Chickens
(MDPI, 2022-07-13)
Waterbath stunning is intended to induce unconsciousness until death occurs due to bleeding in poultry. However, it is not always effective. For this reason, in order to protect their welfare, it is ...
Networks of inbreeding coefficients in a selected population of rabbits
(Wiley, 2020-08-17)
The correlation between pedigree and genomic‐based inbreeding coefficients is usually discussed in the literature. However, some of these correlations could be spurious. Using partial correlations and ...
Current Knowledge on the Transportation by Road of Cattle, including Unweaned Calves
(MDPI, 2023-11-01)
Transport conditions have the potential to alter the physiological responses of animals to the psychological or physical stress of transport. Transportation may introduce multiple physical and psychological ...
A New Biosynthetic 6-Phytase Added at 500 Phytase Unit/kg Diet Improves Growth Performance, Bone Mineralization, and Nutrient Digestibility and Retention in Weaned Piglets and Growing–Finishing Pigs
(MDPI, 2024-06-03)
Two experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of a biosynthetic 6-phytase added at
500 phytase unit (FTU)/kg diet on growth performance, bone mineralization, and nutrient digestibility and ...
Slaughtering of Water Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) with and without Stunning: A Focus on the Neurobiology of Pain, Hyperalgesia, and Sensitization
(MDPI, 2023-07-25)
The slaughter process in livestock is considered a stressor where the transport and handling of animals, as well as the selected stunning and bleeding methods, can cause acute pain, distress, and ...
Strategies for Feeding Unweaned Dairy Beef Cattle to Improve Their Health
(MDPI, 2020-10-18)
In order to answer the question of whether nutritional interventions may help to reduce
the incidence of respiratory disease in dairy beef calves at arrival, the present review is divided in
three ...
Selection of reference samples for updating multivariate calibration models used in the analysis of pig faeces
(Elsevier, 2022-12-30)
Monitoring and updating calibration models are common tasks when analytical methods are based on nearinfrared spectroscopy. This work describes a situation in which a PLS calibration model that is used ...
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 ...
