Conservation Status of Two Italian Local Poultry Breeds: Faraona Camosciata and Oca Padovana

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to assess the conservation status and characterize the phenotypic and genomic diversity of two endangered Italian poultry genetic resources to guide their conservation plans. Blood samples and morphometric data were collected on 50 Faraona Camosciata (FAC, Numida meleagris) and 50 Oca Padovana (OPD, Anser anser) adult ...

Improving the stability of discretization zeros with the Taylor method using a generalization of the fractional-order hold

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2014
Remarkable improvements in the stability properties of discrete system zeros may be achieved by using a new design of the fractional-order hold (FROH) circuit. This paper first analyzes asymptotic behaviors of the limiting zeros, as the sampling period T

Putative Genomic Signatures of Local Adaptation in Five Local Indonesian Sheep Reveal Selection on Immunity, Reproduction, and Production Traits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We determined the genetic structure and signatures of selection in five local Indonesian sheep breeds using genome‐wide SNP data. By integrating population structure analyses with runs of homozygosity and haplotype‐based selection scans, we identified breed‐specific genomic regions associated with immunity, reproduction, pigmentation, metabolism, and ...

Whole Genome Analyses of the Endangered Northern Abalone (Haliotis kamtschatkana) Reveal Population Differentiation and a Genomic Signature of a Dramatic Population Decline

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite widespread declines of many wildlife species, the effects of population decline on the genome and the recovery potential of affected species are still poorly understood, especially beyond a few charismatic species. The Northern abalone (or Pinto abalone; Haliotis kamtschatkana) is a marine gastropod mollusk of social, cultural and ...

Tuberculosis Susceptibility and Inbreeding Depression Hinder Ex Situ Conservation in a Critically Endangered Rainforest Bird

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Captive breeding can be a key component of species conservation strategies, but also exposes these rare species to novel environments including the pathogen landscape. The critically endangered white‐winged wood duck (WWWD) Asarcornis scutulata has experienced substantial population declines, local extirpations and fragmentation of its former ...

Genome-Wide Runs of Homozygosity Revealed Selection Signatures in Bos indicus

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Genome-wide runs of homozygosity (ROH) are suitable for understanding population history, calculating genomic inbreeding, deciphering genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases as well as identifying genes linked with agro-economic traits ...
