Animal exploitation and breeding strategies

, 2020
Zooarchaeological studies in Central Asia are still very scarce. The analysis of the faunal assemblage retrieved during seven archaeological campaigns at the fortified settlement of Kojtepa allows obtaining information about the breeding strategy and animals exploitation in the Samarkand oasis during late and post-Hellenistic period, ca.

Harnessing monocrop breeding strategies for intercrops

Frontiers in Plant Science
Intercropping is considered advantageous for many reasons, including increased yield stability, nutritional value and the provision of various regulating ecosystem services. However, intercropping also introduces diverse competition effects between the mixing partners, which can negatively impact their agronomic performance.

Development of human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 by yeast display

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 are generated by yeast display‐guided selection. These antibodies bind to soluble and cell‐surface forms of TARM1. Also, these antibodies exhibit agonistic activity in the NFAT‐GFP reporter assay, indicating that TARM1 signaling can be functionally modulated by antibodies and suggesting TARM1 as a potential ...

Discerning Genes to Deliver Varieties: Enhancing Vegetative- and Reproductive-Stage Flooding Tolerance in Rice

Rice Science
Flooding in rice fields, especially in coastal regions and low-lying river basins, causes significant devastation to crops. Rice is highly susceptible to prolonged flooding, with a drastic decline in yields if inundation persists for more than 7 d ...

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Quantitative proteomic analysis reveals different characteristics of bladder cancer cells after exposure to bisphenol A

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bisphenol A (BPA), a common chemical in plastics, exerts dual effects on bladder cancer cells: low doses promote growth and migration, while high doses suppress growth and migration. Multi‐omics and bioinformatics reveal BPA acts via MAPK and inflammatory pathways.

Optimal Breeding Strategies for Calving Ease

Journal of Dairy Science, 1994
Calving ease is of economic importance in dairy cattle and should be considered in breeding programs. Economic values of direct and maternal calving ease were derived based on cost-benefit analysis and gene flow methodology. Marginal returns from dystocia reduction in primiparous dams were -$43 per phenotypic standard deviation compared with $300 for ...

Decreased cold‐sensing function of the transient receptor potential channel TRPM8 from tailed amphibians

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.

Assessing the Relationship Between Pre-Laying Morphometrics and Productivity Traits in Magelang Ducks for Sustainable Breeding

Caraka Tani: Journal of Sustainable Agriculture
Traditional selection of Magelang ducks relies on visual assessments despite a lack of scientific validation. This study evaluated the relationships among pre-laying morphometrics and productivity, an approach previously unexplored in this population.
