Transcriptional Characterization of Porcine Leptin and Leptin Receptor Genes
(PLoS ONE, 2013-06-18)The leptin (LEP) and its receptor (LEPR) regulate food intake and energy balance through hypothalamic signaling. However, the LEP-LEPR axis seems to be more complex and its expression regulation has not ... -
A Rapid Transcriptome Response Is Associated with Desiccation Resistance in Aerially-Exposed Killifish Embryos
(PLoS ONE, 2013-05-31)Delayed hatching is a form of dormancy evolved in some amphibian and fish embryos to cope with environmental conditions transiently hostile to the survival of hatchlings or larvae. While diapause and ... -
Identification of Vitis vinifera L. Local Cultivars Recovered in Andalusia (Spain) by Using Microsatellite Markers
(Horticulturae, 2023-02-28)In Andalusia (Spain), there are different wine regions that have a great recognized tradition. In these regions, the cultivation of the vine is ancient and there are still vineyards planted with local ... -
Selecting Suitable Behavioural Tests to Identify Proactive and Reactive Stress Coping Styles in Flathead Grey Mullet (Mugil cephalus) Juveniles
(Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2023-06-09)Identifying Stress Coping Styles (SCS) in new species of interest for aquaculture has important implications for its future domestication and adaptation to captivity. Individual variability allows to ... -
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum: a new example of inclusion body producing bacteria
(Microbial Cell Factories, 2023-06-09)Background Lactic Acid Bacteria such as Lactococcus lactis, Latilactobacillus sakei (basonym: Lactobacillus sakei) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (basonym: Lactobacillus plantarum) have gained ... -
Computed tomography and predictive microbiology for non-invasive evaluation of the impact of dry-cured ham production process conditions on the behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes and Clostridium botulinum
(Meat Science, 2023-05-10)Variability of salt content in dry-cured ham production can pose microbiological food safety issues, especially in salt reduced and/or non-nitrified products. In this regard, computed tomography (CT) ... -
Salinity as the main factor structuring small-bodied fish assemblages in hydrologically altered Mediterranean coastal lagoons
(Scientia Marina, 2013-02-26)In the Ebro Delta coastal lagoons, one of the main anthropogenic pressures is the artificial freshwater input. Each coastal lagoon has different water management schemes causing profound changes in its ... -
A 1,681-locus consensus genetic map of cultivated cucumber including 67 NB-LRR resistance gene homolog and ten gene loci
(BMC Plant Biology, 2013-03-25) -
The high-quality draft genome of peach (Prunus persica) identifies unique patterns of genetic diversity, domestication and genome evolution
(Nature Genetics, 2013-03-24)Rosaceae is the most important fruit-producing clade, and its key commercially relevant genera (Fragaria, Rosa, Rubus and Prunus) show broadly diverse growth habits, fruit types and compact diploid g ... -
Exploring patterns of variation in amphipod assemblages at multiple spatial scales: natural variability versus coastal aquaculture effect
(Aquaculture Environment Interactions (AEI), 2013-01-03)A 5-factor design survey was carried out to examine the spatial distribution at different scales of amphipod assemblages and sedimentary variables in soft bottoms adjacent to coastal aquaculture ... -
Exposure to a Low Pathogenic A/H7N2 Virus in Chickens Protects against Highly Pathogenic A/H7N1 Virus but Not against Subsequent Infection with A/H5N1
(PLoS ONE, 2013-03-04)Recent evidences have demonstrated that the presence of low pathogenic avian influenza viruses (LPAIV) may play an important role in host ecology and transmission of avian influenza viruses (AIV). While ... -
Characterization In Vitro and In Vivo of a Pandemic H1N1 Influenza Virus from a Fatal Case
(PLoS ONE, 2013-01-10)Pandemic 2009 H1N1 (pH1N1) influenza viruses caused mild symptoms in most infected patients. However, a greater rate of severe disease was observed in healthy young adults and children without co-morbid ... -
Variability-specific differential gene expression across reproductive stages in sows
(Animal, 2013-10-11)Differential gene expression analyses typically focus on departures across mathematical expectations (i.e. mean) from two or more groups of microarrays, without considering alternative patterns of ... -
Polymorphism in the ELOVL6 Gene Is Associated with a Major QTL Effect on Fatty Acid Composition in Pigs
(PLoS ONE, 2013-01-14)Background: The ELOVL fatty acid elongase 6 (ELOVL6), the only elongase related to de novo lipogenesis, catalyzes the ratelimiting step in the elongation cycle by controlling the fatty acid balance in ... -
Prevalences of pathogenic and non-pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus in mollusks from the Spanish Mediterranean Coast
(Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015-07-21)Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a well-recognized pathogen of humans. To better understand the ecology of the human-pathogenic variants of this bacterium in the environment, a study on the prevalence in ... -
The Cipher Code of Simple Sequence Repeats in “Vampire Pathogens”
