Genotyping of Porcine Circovirus 2 (PCV-2) in Vaccinated Pigs Suffering from PCV-2-Systemic Disease between 2009 and 2020 in Spain
(Pathogens, 2021-08-12)Vaccination against porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is a common practice all over the world. Vaccines can prevent PCV-2-systemic disease (PCV-2-SD) outbreaks but not PCV-2 infection, which can be detectable ... -
The value of gut microbiota to predict feed efficiency and growth of rabbits under different feeding regimes
(Scientific reports, 2021-09-30)Gut microbiota plays an important role in nutrient absorption and could impact rabbit feed efciency. This study aims at investigating such impact by evaluating the value added by microbial information for ... -
Overexpression of thioredoxin m in chloroplasts alters carbon and nitrogen partitioning in tobacco
(Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021-05-08)In plants, there is a complex interaction between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism, and its coordination is fundamental for plant growth and development. Here, we studied the influence of thioredoxin ... -
