Influence of MC1R Gene Variants on Coat Color of Indicine Cattle Breeds
Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Indicine cattle display a broad range of coat colors, representing a relevant and breed‐defining trait required for registration in breeder association. Among the genes involved in pigmentation, MC1R stands out for modulating the synthesis of melanin‐related proteins and remains poorly explored in indicine cattle breeds. Therefore, we aimed to

Energy Efficient Multistandard Decompressor ASIP
2021 7th International Conference on Computing and Data Engineering, 2021 Many applications make extensive use of various forms of compression techniques for storing and communicating data. As decompression is highly regular and repetitive, it is a suitable candidate for acceleration. Examples are offloading (de)compression to a dedicated circuit on a heterogeneous System-on-Chip, or attaching FPGAs or ASICs directly to ...

Factors Affecting Multiple Paternity: Insights From the Eastern Quoll (Dasyurus viverrinus)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Eastern quolls (Dasyurus viverrinus) exhibit multiple paternity in approximately half of all litters. Reproductive success is correlated with heavier weight, youth, and being black rather than fawn colour morph. A cross‐species analysis indicates that high rates of multiple paternity within the Dasyuridae area correlated with shorter lifespan and ...

CHARACTERISATION OF COAT COLOUR IN THE SLOVENIAN POSAVJE HORSE
Slovenian Veterinary Research, 2021 Different approaches and classification systems have been established to describe equine coat colour, which varies between breeds and countries. In the present study, we first characterised the coat colour variability in the Slovenian Posavje Horse ...

Bayesian inference of natural selection from allele frequency time series
, 2016 The advent of accessible ancient DNA technology now allows the direct ascertainment of allele frequencies in ancestral populations, thereby enabling the use of allele frequency time series to detect and estimate natural selection.

How the leopard hides its spots: ASIP mutations and melanism in wild cats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The occurrence of melanism (darkening of the background coloration) is documented in 13 felid species, in some cases reaching high frequencies at the population level. Recent analyses have indicated that it arose multiple times in the Felidae, with three

Matrix Approach for Analyzing n-Site Generalized ASIP Systems: PGF and Site Occupancy Probabilities
Mathematics, 2022 The Asymmetric Simple Inclusion Process (ASIP) is an n-site tandem stochastic network with a Poisson arrival influx into the first site. Each site has an unlimited buffer with a gate in front of it.
