Signature of Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Related to Climate Adaptation and Production Traits in Lao Native Goats

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 152-171, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenous goats well‐adapted to their local environments, making them crucial genetic resources. Understanding the

Analysis of backfat thickness in on-farm tested gilts in Slovenia using reaction norms

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2015
Animals have the ability to respond to differences in environment, which can be called phenotypic plasticity or environment sensitivity. Robust animal, that show little variability across environments, are less sensitive. Therefore, the aim of this study

Genetic Evaluation Weight, Carcass and Stayability in Nellore Females

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 6, Page 718-731, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Traits related to growth, carcass quality and stayability are key components in enhancing the profitability and sustainability of Nelore cattle production systems. This study aimed to estimate heritabilities and genetic and environmental correlations for these traits using a Bayesian approach. Data from 94,703 females were analysed for weights
