Are trait-growth models transferable? Predicting multi-species growth trajectories between ecosystems using plant functional traits

PLOS ONE, 2017
Plant functional traits are increasingly used to generalize across species, however few examples exist of predictions from trait-based models being evaluated in new species or new places. Can we use functional traits to predict growth of unknown species in different areas?

Genotype–environment interactions for growth and carcass traits in different pig breeds kept under conventional and organic production systems

Animal, 2010
The demand for special breeding programmes for organic pig meat production is based on the assumption that pigs kept under organic conditions need different biological properties compared with conventionally kept pigs in order to achieve a good ...

Genomic selection in tree breeding [PDF]

Сибирский лесной журнал, 2020
The literature review concerning genomic selection in forest tree breeding is given. Genomic selection is based on relationships between phenotypic traits and genetic markers (single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP).

Snps detected in the sirt1 and h-fabp genes and their association with growth traits in yak [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2019
The aims of this study were to investigate whether the Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and Hear fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) genes could be used as candidate genes in the breeding of yak. In 409 indigenous Chinese yaks, two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)

Meta-analysis of substitution value of maize with cassava (Manihot esculenta Cratnz) on growth performance of broiler chickens

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
There are variable results on the effect of cassava on the performance characteristics of broiler chickens. As a result, this meta-analysis was performed to determine the effect of cassava on feed intake, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and average daily ...

Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) mapping for growth traits in the mouse: A review [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2001
The attainment of a specific mature body size is one of the most fundamental differences among species of mammals. Moreover, body size seems to be the central factor underlying differences in traits such as growth rate, energy metabolism and body composition. An important proportion of this variability is of genetic origin.
