Virtue or passion? How moral frames in climate change appeals elicit emotions and change opinions
Abstract Political climate change debates make use of different moral frames of climate change diagnoses and solutions. While it is argued that moral frames are more effective when they invoke strong moral emotions, thus far the relationship between real‐world political moral viewpoints on climate change and the arousal of related emotions, behavior ...

Impacts of Highland cattle browsing on encroaching Alnus viridis shrubs
Abstract Introduction In several European mountain chains, the expansion of the tall shrub Alnus viridis into mountain pastures has altered vegetation structure and composition, reduced plant species diversity, and diminished forage quality. Recent woody encroachment research has explored the use of robust livestock breeds, such as Highland cattle (Bos

detectRUNS: Detect runs of homozygosity and runs of heterozygosity in diploid genomes [PDF]
detectRUNS is a R package for the detection of runs of homozygosity (ROH/ROHom) and of heterozygosity (ROHet, a.k.a. “heterozygosity-rich regions”) in diploid genomes. ROH/ROHom were first studied in humans (e.g. McQuillan et al.

Protective effect of snail secretion filtrate in an in vitro model of mastitis
Abstract Background Bovine mastitis is inflammation of the mammary gland mainly caused by bacterial infections, with relevant economic costs and implications related to antibiotic resistance. In light of the increasing demand for sustainable therapies, this study evaluated the anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant effects of snail secretion filtrate (SSF ...

Abstract Understanding the genetic regulation of complex traits like mastitis in Holstein dairy cows remains a challenge, despite significant advancements in breeding techniques. This study integrates 3′‐untranslated region alternative polyadenylation (APA) quantitative trait loci (3′aQTL) mapping with genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) to ...

Ascertainment Bias in Cattle SNP Arrays and Implications for Multibreed Genomic Predictions
ABSTRACT Ascertainment bias of SNP for genotyping arrays, where markers are discovered largely in one breed then used to genotype other breeds, can affect scaling and dispersion of genomic breeding values in multibreed genomic evaluations. Detecting and addressing this bias is crucial for robust genetic analyses.

ABSTRACT TSPEAR (chr. 21q22.3) encodes a protein involved in tooth development and is predominantly expressed in the enamel knot. Biallelic loss of function variants in TSPEAR cause ectodermal dysplasia, tooth agenesis and sensorineural hearing loss. However, the role of TSPEAR in auditory processes is unclear.
