Genetic variation in the first intron and exon of the myostatin gene in several Indonesian cattle populations [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2021
Background and Aim: Myostatin (MSTN), a member of the transforming growth factor-β family, is a negative regulator of muscle mass. This study aimed to detect the genetic variation of the 1160 bp fragment of exon 1 and part of intron 1 of the MSTN gene in

Non-Invasive Physiological Indicators of Heat Stress in Cattle

Animals, 2021
Simple Summary Heat stress is a common cause of poor welfare in cattle and is expected to increase with climate change. The biggest challenges are to feedlot and dairy cattle in hot climates but determining whether cattle are heat stressed can be ...

De novo assembly of the cattle reference genome with single-molecule sequencing

GigaScience, 2020
Background Major advances in selection progress for cattle have been made following the introduction of genomic tools over the past 10–12 years. These tools depend upon the Bos taurus reference genome (UMD3.1.1), which was created using now-outdated ...

Genome-wide methylation and transcriptome of blood neutrophils reveal the roles of DNA methylation in affecting transcription of protein-coding genes and miRNAs in E. coli-infected mastitis cows

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Neutrophils are the first effectors of inflammatory response triggered by mastitis infection, and are important defense cells against pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli).
