The significance of N-carbamoylglutamate in ruminant production

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Improving the efficiency and production of grazing ruminants to support food and fiber production, while reducing the environmental footprint and meeting the welfare needs of the animals, is important for sustainable livestock production systems ...

Seed Transmission of Epichloë Endophytes in Lolium perenne Is Heavily Influenced by Host Genetics

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Vertical transmission of symbiotic Epichloë endophytes from host grasses into progeny seed is the primary mechanism by which the next generation of plants is colonized. This process is often imperfect, resulting in endophyte-free seedlings which may have

Exploring the Secretomes of Microbes and Microbial Communities Using Filamentous Phage Display

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Microbial surface and secreted proteins (the secretome) contain a large number of proteins that interact with other microbes, host and/or environment. These proteins are exported by the coordinated activities of the protein secretion machinery present in

Quantitative genetic analysis reveals potential to breed for improved white clover growth in symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing Rhizobium bacteria

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
White clover (Trifolium repens) is integral to mixed pastures in New Zealand and temperate agriculture globally. It provides quality feed and a sustainable source of plant-available nitrogen (N) via N-fixation through symbiosis with soil-dwelling ...

Mesoporous N,S‐Dual‐Doped Carbon Nanoreactors via Entropy‐Driven Interface Self‐Assembly for Efficient H2O2 Electrosynthesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An entropy‐driven interface self‐assembly strategy is proposed for the controllable synthesis of mesoporous N,S‐dual‐doped carbon nanoreactors. The N,S‐dual‐doping sites optimized the *OOH adsorption, boosting the 2e− selectivity, while the favorable mesostructure accelerated O2 enrichment.

Self-assembled particulate vaccine elicits strong immune responses and reduces Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection in mice

Scientific Reports, 2020
Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) causes chronic progressive granulomatous enteritis leading to diarrhoea, weight loss, and eventual death in ruminants.

Divergent Genomic Selection for Herbage Accumulation and Days-To-Heading in Perennial Ryegrass

Agronomy, 2020
Increasing the rate of genetic gain for dry matter (DM) yield in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), which is a key source of nutrition for ruminants in temperate environments, is an important goal for breeders.

Tailoring Multifunctional Carbon Dots via Precursor Stoichiometry: Switching Between Solid‐State Fluorescence and Broadband Absorption Through Aggregation Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Precursor stoichiometry programs the surface chemistry of carbon dots, directing their self‐assembly into distinct aggregation modes. Aldehyde‐enriched surfaces form ordered, hydrogen‐bonded assemblies that enable bright red solid‐state fluorescence, whereas amine‐rich surfaces promote compact π–π stacked aggregates with broadband visible‐light ...
