Unveiling the Role of Rumen Microbiome in Modulating Intramuscular Fat Deposition of Pingliang Red Cattle

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study revealed that rumen microbiota significantly influence IMF deposition in Pingliang Red cattle through taxonomic and functional mechanisms. Limosilactobacillus panis and Fibrobacter succinogenes were identified as potential biomarkers for high IMF content.

Genome‐Wide Association Study (GWAS) for Linear Body Measurements of Sussex Cattle (Bos taurus) at Weaning and Yearling Age in South Africa

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
These results show that GWAS can be a useful tool for recognising novel loci and unravelling the genetic basis of complex economic traits. Sussex cattle exhibited candidate genes (RAB31, BIRC5, TEX22, CFAP100 and LOC617705) as potential candidate genes for linear body measurement traits, which could serve as significant marker information for genome ...

Comparative Fluctuating Asymmetry and Directional Asymmetry in Four Cattle Skulls

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates the comparison of directional asymmetry (DA) and fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in the skulls of four cattle breeds (Eastern Anatolian Red, Southern Anatolian Red, Holstein and Simmental). Using geometric morphometrics (3D landmarks, Procrustes analysis, PCA and ANOVA), 89 skulls were analysed.

Maternal Liver Retinol Stores Do Not Ensure Adequate Calf Vitamin A Under Restricted Late‐Gestation Vitamin A Intake

Animal Science Journal, Volume 97, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A is critical for immune function and epithelial integrity, yet the relationship between maternal and calf vitamin A status is not well defined. This study evaluated cow–calf vitamin A status under restricted maternal vitamin A intake during late gestation and early lactation.

Fast genomic prediction of breeding values using parallel Markov chain Monte Carlo with convergence diagnosis

BMC Bioinformatics, 2018
Background Running multiple-chain Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) provides an efficient parallel computing method for complex Bayesian models, although the efficiency of the approach critically depends on the length of the non-parallelizable burn-in ...

Bovine Leukemia Virus: Global Prevalence and Localized Resurgence in China Revealed by an Integrated Meta‐Analysis and Case Series

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL), causes substantial economic losses in the global cattle industry. While some regions have made progress in terms of control, the global epidemiological landscape and situation in China have not been fully elucidated.
