Comparative analysis of cattle (Bos taurus, 2n = 60) and river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis, 2n = 50) genome assemblies reveals two evolutionary conserved inversions and invalid centromere-telomere orientation of some autosomes. [PDF]
Anim GenetAbstract This study investigates autosome evolution between river buffalo (Bubablus bubalis, BBU) and cattle (Bos taurus, BTA), two closely related species within the Bovidae family. Despite differences in chromosome numbers (2n = 60 in cattle and 2n = 50 in river buffalo), previous cytogenetic studies have shown high autosome similarity.

Identification and Validation of Genus/Species-Specific Short InDels in Dairy Ruminants [PDF]
BMC Veterinary ResearchBackground Over the past thirty years, the identification of species-specific molecular markers has significantly advanced our understanding of genetic diversity in both plants and animals. Among these, short InDels have emerged as vital genomic features,

The Vertebrate Breed Ontology: Toward Effective Breed Data Standardization. [PDF]
J Vet Intern MedABSTRACT Background Limited universally‐adopted data standards in veterinary medicine hinder data interoperability and therefore integration and comparison; this ultimately impedes the application of existing information‐based tools to support advancement in diagnostics, treatments, and precision medicine.

Exotic Megaherbivores as Ecosystem Engineers in Australian Savannas: Do They Facilitate Predator Movement? [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated how two terrestrial mammalian predators in northern Australian savannas—the dingo (Canis familiaris) and feral cat (Felis catus)—use game trails created by exotic megaherbivores. Using camera traps deployed at 52 sites, we found that both dingoes and cats were significantly more likely to be detected on game trails than in adjacent ...

Genome assembly of wisent (Bison bonasus) uncovers a deletion that likely inactivates the THRSP gene [PDF]
Communications BiologyThe wisent (Bison bonasus) is Europe’s largest land mammal. We produced a HiFi read-based wisent assembly with a contig N50 value of 91 Mb containing 99.7% of the highly conserved single copy mammalian genes which improves contiguity a thousand-fold over
