Discovery and annotation of novel microRNAs in the porcine genome by using a semi-supervised transductive learning approach
(Elsevier, 2019-12-06)
Despite the broad variety of available microRNA (miRNA) prediction tools, their application to the discovery and annotation of novel miRNA genes in domestic species is still limited. In this study we ...
Characterization of bacterial microbiota compositions along the intestinal tract in pigs and their interactions and functions
(Springer Nature, 2018-08-28)
In addition to its value in meat production, the pig is an interesting animal model for human digestive tract studies due to its physiological similarities. The aim of this study was to describe the ...
Use of anionic polymer-coated magnetic beads to pre-concentrate Ostreid Herpesvirus 1 from seawater: Application to a UV disinfection treatment
(Elsevier, 2021-02-02)
Ostreid Herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) represents a serious threat to shellfish aquaculture worldwide. To minimise its impact, early warning systems able to detect the virus in seawater prior to infection of ...
Variations in association of nasal microbiota with virulent and non-virulent strains of Glaesserella (Haemophilus) parasuis in weaning piglets
(BMC, 2020-02-03)
Glaesserella (formerly Haemophilus) parasuis causes Glässer's disease, which results in high economic loss in the swine industry. To understand the polymicrobial interactions of G. parasuis and the nasal ...
Effect of increasing lignin in isoenergetic diets at two soluble fibre levels on digestion, performance and carcass quality of growing rabbits
(Elsevier, 2020-01-27)
To assess the effect of increasing dietary lignin in isoenergetic diets at two soluble fibre (SF) levels on digestion, performance and carcass quality of growing rabbits, four diets were formulated ...
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) genotype update and proposal of a new genotyping methodology
(Public Library of Science, 2018-12-06)
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is one of the most widespread viral infections of swine, causing a remarkable economic impact because of direct losses and indirect costs for its control. As other ssDNA ...
Hydrophobic membranes for ammonia recovery from digestates in microbial electrolysis cells: Assessment of different configurations
(Elsevier, 2021-03-01)
The combination of hydrophobic membranes and microbial electrolysis cells (MEC) was assessed in two different configurations in order to recover ammonia from anaerobically digested pig slurry. ...
Removal of the Erns RNase Activity and of the 39 Untranslated Region Polyuridine Insertion in a Low-Virulence Classical Swine Fever Virus Triggers a Cytokine Storm and Lethal Disease
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022-06-27)
In this study, we assessed the potential synergistic effect of the Erns RNase activity and the poly-U insertion in the 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of the low-virulence classical swine fever virus (CSFV) ...
Predictive score and probability of CTX-like toxicity in fish samples from the official control of ciguatera in the Canary Islands
(Elsevier, 2019-03-30)
This research identifies factors associated with the contamination by ciguatoxins (CTXs) in a population of fish and proposes a predictive score of the presence of CTX-like toxicity in amberjack samples ...
High levels of unreported intraspecific diversity among RNA viruses in faeces of neonatal piglets with diarrhoea
(BMC, 2019-12-05)
BACKGROUND:
Diarrhoea is a major cause of death in neonate pigs and most of the viruses that cause it are RNA viruses. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) deeply characterize the genetic diversity among ...
