Estimation of Genetic Parameters for Peak Yield, Yield and Persistency Traits in Murciano-Granadina Goats Using Multi-Traits Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper studies parameters of a lactation curve such as peak yield (PY) and persistency (P), which do not conform to the usual selection criteria in the Murciano-Granadina (MG) breed, but are considered to be an alternative to benefit animal welfare ...

Genetic parameter estimates for plasma oxidative status traits in slaughter pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of sex and to estimate genetic parameters for several traits related to plasma oxidative status in slaughter pigs, i.e., ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP), concentrations of a-tocopherol and ...

Accuracy of genomic selection for reducing susceptibility to pendulous crop in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo)

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2022
: Pendulous crop (PC) in the turkey occurs when the crop distends from its normal position, thereby preventing the movement of feed and water from the crop down into the digestive system.

Molecular and Genetic Determinants of Glioma Cell Invasion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A diffusely invasive nature is a major obstacle in treating a malignant brain tumor, "diffuse glioma", which prevents neurooncologists from surgically removing the tumor cells even in combination with chemotherapy and radiation.

Impact of breeding for reduced methane emissions in New Zealand sheep on maternal and health traits

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Enteric methane emissions from ruminants account for ∼35% of New Zealand’s greenhouse gas emissions. This poses a significant threat to the pastoral sector.

Genetic correlations and causal effects of fighting ability on fitness traits in cattle reveal antagonistic trade-offs

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Complex genetic and phenotypic relationships are theorized to link different fitness components but revealing the correlations occurring among disparate traits requires large datasets of pedigreed populations.

Genetic variability and correlation analysis of rice (Oryza sativa L.) inbred lines based on agro-morphological traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to evaluate genetic variability of agro-morphological traits and also determine the correlation between grain yield with its components in rice lines, 17 recombinants inbred lines, their parents and a check variety were grown in research station

Estimates of genetic parameters for feeding behavior traits and their associations with feed efficiency in Holstein cows

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2022
: Residual feed intake (RFI) is commonly used to measure feed efficiency but individual intake recording systems are needed. Feeding behavior may be used as an indicator trait for feed efficiency using less expensive precision livestock farming ...
