Genome-wide association mapping including phenotypes from relatives without genotypes in a single-step (ssGWAS) for 6-week body weight in broiler chickens

Frontiers in Genetics, 2014
The purpose of this study was to compare results obtained from various methodologies for genome-wide association studies, when applied to real data, in terms of number and commonality of regions identified and their genetic variance explained ...

Assessing Hydrolyzed Gluten Content in Dietary Enzyme Supplements Following Fermentation

Fermentation, 2022
Partially digested gluten fragments from grains including wheat, rye, spelt and barley are responsible for triggering an inflammatory response in the intestinal tract of Celiac Disease (CD) and Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitive (NCGS) individuals. Fermentation

Validation of genomic predictions for body weight in broilers using crossbred information and considering breed-of-origin of alleles

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2019
Background Pig and poultry breeding programs aim at improving crossbred (CB) performance. Selection response may be suboptimal if only purebred (PB) performance is used to compute genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV) because the genetic correlation ...

Determining the digestible lysine requirement of Cobb MV × Cobb 500 FF broilers from 28-41 days of age and the effect of feeding varying digestible lysine levels on performance, processing, and economics

Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 2023
SUMMARY: The current objective was to expand on previous research using the Cobb MV × Cobb 500 to determine its finisher digestible Lys (dLys) requirement (Req; d 28–41), as well as the effect of feeding varying finisher dLys levels on performance ...

Estimating the purebred-crossbred genetic correlation of body weight in broiler chickens with pedigree or genomic relationships

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2019
Background In pig and poultry breeding programs, the breeding goal is to improve crossbred (CB) performance, whereas selection in the purebred (PB) lines is often based on PB performance. Thus, response to selection may be suboptimal, because the genetic

Bone Metabolite Profile Differs between Normal and Femur Head Necrosis (FHN/BCO)-Affected Broilers: Implications for Dysregulated Metabolic Cascades in FHN Pathophysiology

Metabolites, 2023
Femur head necrosis (FHN), also known as bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO), has remained an animal welfare and production concern for modern broilers regardless of efforts to select against it in primary breeder flocks.

Cancer in an Historic Washington DC African American Population and Its Geospatial Distribution

Frontiers in Oncology, 2018
Background: Cancer continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the African American community but insights into the types and incidence of cancer 85 years ago have been virtually non-existent and little is known of its geospatial ...
