A CACNA2D2-Related Recessive Form of Cerebellar Abiotrophy in Angus Cattle. [PDF]

Anim Genet
ABSTRACT Cerebellar disease in ruminants is often virus‐induced and non‐genetic, but there are also rare inherited forms of cerebellar hypoplasia and cerebellar abiotrophy (CA). So far, no causal variant has been reported for these conditions in cattle. Two inbred Angus calves suspected of having cerebellar disease were reported in Scotland.

Combining information from genome-wide association and multi-tissue gene expression studies to elucidate factors underlying genetic variation for residual feed intake in Australian Angus cattle

BMC Genomics, 2019
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are extensively used to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) underlying the genetic variation of complex traits.

Differences in Beef Quality between Angus (Bos taurus taurus) and Nellore (Bos taurus indicus) Cattle through a Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Approach

PLoS ONE, 2017
Proteins are the major constituents of muscle and are key molecules regulating the metabolic changes during conversion of muscle to meat. Brazil is one of the largest exporters of beef and most Brazilian cattle are composed by zebu (Nellore) genotype ...

Signifying Nothing: Nihilism, Information, and Signs

Open Philosophy, 2023
This article explores the theme of nihilism from the perspective of post-continental philosophy by focusing on semiotics and information theory and the question of “meaning” at stake between them.

Animal Breed Composition Is Associated With the Hindgut Microbiota Structure and β-Lactam Resistance in the Multibreed Angus-Brahman Herd

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Antibiotics have been widely used in livestock to treat and prevent bacterial diseases. However, use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic resistant microorganisms (ARMs) in food animals.

Deciphering the Evolution Pattern of Structural Variations Overlapped With Repetitive Sequence During Cattle Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors complement bovine pan‐SV with massive novel structural variations (SVs) identified through long‐read sequencing of 83 globally distributed cattle breeds. Repetitive sequence‐mediated SVs (rep‐SV) exhibit distinct dynamic patterns throughout cattle sub‐speciation and/or domestication processes, including uneven distribution between chr‐X and

Alcohol Consumption Is a Risk Factor of Surgical Site Infection After Minimally Invasive Surgery: A Secondary Observational Analysis of a Clinical Trial

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Alcohol consumption was independently associated with Surgical Site Infection in the gastroenterological Minimally Invasive Surgery. Whether preoperative abstinence from alcohol prevents the occurrence of SSI warrants further investigation. ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the postoperative complications. Risk factors for SSI

Comparison of the ruminal microbiome responses of temperate and tropically adapted beef steers to dietary supplementation with monensin

Frontiers in Animal Science
The interactive responses of cattle genetics and the rumen microbiome (G×M) govern variations in the feed efficiency and methane emissions, which subsequently impact cattle productivity and their environmental footprint.

The Legislation for Providing Animal Access in Australian Residential Aged Care: It's Not a Zoo

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Providing meaningful animal contact to residential aged care facility (RACF) residents is problematic due to a lack of animal policies and National Guidelines. This paper examines how Australian Legislation could influence access to animal contact in RACFs and aims to answer the question, ‘Could current Legislation facilitate the development ...
