Assessing the Potential for Genetic Rescue in Critically Endangered Saimaa Salmon: Early Viability and Genomic Outcomes via First Backcrossing

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Small, threatened populations often suffer from a limited gene pool, which increases inbreeding and reduces their adaptability. We investigated the phenotypic and genomic effects of hybridization (resulting from backcrossing) on the critically endangered Lake Saimaa landlocked salmon, Salmo salar m. sebago, focusing on a particularly sensitive

Limbal cystotomy by fine needle aspiration of a translucent iris cyst in a horse

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 11, Page e784-e789, November 2026.
Summary A 4‐year‐old Cremello crossbred mare was referred to the Equine Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Utrecht University for a translucent iris cyst from the dorsal pupillary margin corpora nigra in the right eye. Although noninvasive diode laser treatment is the preferred method of pigmented cyst ablation, two attempts did not result in disruption ...

Evaluating the Predictive Value of Estimated Breeding Values of Piétrain Sires for Uniformity and Survival in Their Crossbred Progeny

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 6, Page 746-761, November 2026.
ABSTRACT High litter sizes in pigs are associated with lower birth weights and increased within‐litter variation, which poses challenges to pig farming. Improving piglet uniformity and survival via genetic selection of terminal boars could be a strategy to enhance these traits.

Genetic Associations of Functional Longevity With Sexual Precocity and Growth Traits in Nellore Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 6, Page 821-833, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Functional longevity (FL) is a complex trait that integrates many attributes directly contributing to the successful retention and productivity of a cow within the herd. Consequently, improving FL in beef cattle increases herd profitability. This study aimed to estimate the genetic associations between two alternative FL definitions and traits
