Current state and problems of poultry breeding in Russia (review)
Аграрная наука Евро-Северо-Востока, 2020 Modern poultry breeding in Russia is one of the fastest growing sectors of agriculture, but the prosperity of the industry is almost entirely dependent on supplies of breeding material from abroad.

Dynamic survival risk prediction with time‐varying high‐dimensional images
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Integrating longitudinal data with survival models is a prevalent strategy for dynamic survival risk prediction while accounting for subjects' longitudinally observed variables. However, existing methods primarily focus on scalar longitudinal data and seldom tackle the complexities associated with high‐dimensional longitudinal imaging data ...

ハチ ルイ ノ イクシュ ヘノ BLUP ホウ ニヨル センバツ ノ ドウニュウ [PDF]
, 2013 BLUP法による予測育種価に基づく選抜（BLUP選抜）は、家畜育種において広く利用され、経済形質の遺伝的改良に目覚ましい成果を上げてきた。しかしながら、ハチ類においては遺伝ならびに繁殖上の2つの特性、すなわち半倍数性の性決定様式および一妻多夫制の繁殖様式によって、BLUP選抜の適用が他の家畜に比べて立ち遅れている。本研究では、ハチ類に固有の遺伝ならびに繁殖上の特性を考慮に入れて、ハチ類の育種におけるBLUP法の計算アルゴリズムを開発した。さらに、BLUP選抜のハチ類の育種への適用例を ...

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Reliable body condition scoring in rabbits is essential in managing healthy bodyweight. The commonly used Rabbit size‐o‐meter (RSOM) has shown poor inter‐rater reliability, particularly among inexperienced raters. This study aimed to develop a reliable, reproducible body condition scoring scale for companion rabbits across breeds ...

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) are chronic inflammatory conditions with unsatisfactory treatment outcomes due to frequent recurrence of refractory disease. Identifying new therapeutic targets is essential. Methods We conducted a proteome‐wide Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis by integrating genome‐wide ...

Genomic prediction in a backcross population using relationship matrices [PDF]
Archives Animal BreedingBackcrossing is a widely used crossbreeding strategy for transferring desirable traits from a donor line into a recurrent parent population. Although genomic selection can accelerate genetic improvement in these populations, traditional models such as G ...
