Detection of Genetic Variants Associated with Behavioural Response During Milking in Simmental Dual-Purpose Cows

Animals
Cattle breeding has traditionally focused on improving production traits; however, recent interest in positive animal welfare has shifted attention toward selecting for more robust animals that balance productivity with health and well-being.

PacBio Single-Molecule Long-Read Sequencing Provides New Light on the Complexity of Full-Length Transcripts in Cattle

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Cattle (Bos taurus) is one of the most widely distributed livestock species in the world, and provides us with high-quality milk and meat which have a huge impact on the quality of human life.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Frequency Weaning - Fertilization Interval in Large White Sows

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
The time from weaning to fertilization is a non productive interval in sows fertility. The present paper has studied the number of weaned piglets and farrowing rang as factors of influence in sows fertility, based on 1230 deliveries in Large White sows ...

Genome wide association study and genomic prediction for fatty acid composition in Chinese Simmental beef cattle using high density SNP array

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Fatty acid composition of muscle is an important trait contributing to meat quality. Recently, genome-wide association study (GWAS) has been extensively used to explore the molecular mechanism underlying important traits in cattle.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Demonstration of early functional compromise of bone marrow derived hematopoietic progenitor cells during bovine neonatal pancytopenia through in vitro culture of bone marrow biopsies [PDF]

, 2012
Background Bovine neonatal pancytopenia (BNP) is a syndrome characterised by thrombocytopenia associated with marked bone marrow destruction in calves, widely reported since 2007 in several European countries and since 2011 in New Zealand. The disease is

Considerations on the Present and Future of Buffalo in Terms of Sustainability

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
This paper is a brief analysis on the evolution of the buffalo herds nationally and internationally. It is noted that depending on the size of herds in each country may speak of countries with active population, the countries of Italy in increasing Asian

Evaluation of Passive Immunity Induced by Immunisation Using Two Inactivated gE-deleted Marker Vaccines against Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) in Calves

Vaccines, 2020
Different types of vaccines against Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) are commercially available. Among these, inactivated glycoprotein E (gE)-deleted marker vaccines are commonly used, but their ability to induce passive immunity is poorly known ...
