Analysis of the transcriptome of bovine endometrial cells isolated by laser micro-dissection (2): impacts of post-partum negative energy balance on stromal, glandular and luminal epithelial cells

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background In post-partum dairy cows, the energy needs to satisfy high milk production induces a status of more or less pronounced Negative Energy Balance (NEB). NEB associated with fat mobilization impairs reproductive function. In a companion paper, we

Within-breed and multi-breed GWAS on imputed whole-genome sequence variants reveal candidate mutations affecting milk protein composition in dairy cattle

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were performed at the sequence level to identify candidate mutations that affect the expression of six major milk proteins in Montbéliarde (MON), Normande (NOR), and Holstein (HOL) dairy cattle.

CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing to assess the role of RF-amide−related peptide 3 in ovine seasonal breeding

Animal
Seasonal breeding is an adaptive strategy that ensures the birth of the offspring during the best time of year and allows energy saving in times of food scarcity and adverse environmental conditions.

Cellular metabolism and oxidative stress as a possible determinant for longevity in small breed and large breed dogs

PLoS ONE, 2018
Among species, larger animals tend to live longer than smaller ones, however, the opposite seems to be true for dogs—smaller dogs tend to live significantly longer than larger dogs across all breeds. We were interested in the mechanism that may allow for

CRISPR/Cas9-editing of PRNP in Alpine goats

Veterinary Research
Misfolding of the cellular PrP (PrPc) protein causes prion disease, leading to neurodegenerative disorders in numerous mammalian species, including goats. A lack of PrPc induces complete resistance to prion disease.

A canine identity crisis: Genetic breed heritage testing of shelter dogs

PLoS ONE, 2018
Previous research in animal shelters has determined the breeds of dogs living in shelters by their visual appearance; however the genetic breed testing of such dogs is seldom conducted, and few studies have compared the breed labels assigned by shelter ...

Sequence variants selected from a multi-breed GWAS can improve the reliability of genomic predictions in dairy cattle

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2016
BackgroundSequence data can potentially increase the reliability of genomic predictions, because such data include causative mutations instead of relying on linkage disequilibrium (LD) between causative mutations and prediction variants.

Comparative analysis of the physical and phenotypic traits of native cattle (Bos indicus) in the Tarai region of North Bihar for conservation [PDF]

Veterinary World
Background and Aim: The evaluation of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of indigenous breeds may help to frame breeding policies and plans to implement breed conservation and improvement programs to increase the efficiency of the native ...
