Preweaning piglet survival on commercial farms
(Journal of Animal Science, 2023-12-12)Preweaning piglet mortality (PWM), a trait highly related to litter size, is one of the main concerns associated with productive efficiency and animal welfare in commercial pig farms. The objectives of ... -
Erysipelas with preferential brain and skin involvement in a Mediterranean bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus
(Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2024-02-01)Infections by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae occur in domestic animals and cause the disease known as ‘erysipelas’. The ubiquity of Erysipelothrix spp. makes infection possible in a wide range of ... -
PERSEUS: an interactive and intuitive web-based tool for pedigree visualization
(Bioinformatics, 2024-02-03)Pedigree-based analyses’ prime role is to unravel relationships between individuals in breeding programs and germplasms. This is critical information for decoding the genetics underlying main inherited ... -
Impacts of diffuse urban stressors on stream benthic communities and ecosystem functioning: A review
(Limnetica, 2024)Catchment urbanisation results in urban streams being exposed to a multitude of stressors. Notably, stressors originating from diffuse sources have received less attention than stressors originating ... -
Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 18: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2023
(EFSA Journal, 2023-07-10)The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) approach was developed to provide a regularly updated generic pre-evaluation of the safety of microorganisms, intended for use in the food or feed chains, to ... -
Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of molluscs
(EFSA Journal, 2023-08-01)Vector or reservoir species of five mollusc diseases listed in the Animal Health Law were identified, based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review, to support a possible updating ... -
The economic impact of endemic respiratory disease in pigs and related interventions - a systematic review
