Physiological alterations and predictors of death in neonatal calves with weak calf syndrome

Veterinary Record, Volume 197, Issue 3, 2/9 August 2025.
Abstract Background Weak calf syndrome (WCS) is characterised by weakness, poor vitality and difficulty standing or suckling. Early identification of physiological alterations and prognostic indicators is critical for improving the management and survival of weak calves.

Estimates of growth curve parameters in Hanwoo

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genomics
This study aimed to estimate growth curve parameters in Hanwoo cattle using nonlinear models. Body weight records were collected from the Hanwoo Research Center, the Nonghyup Hanwoo Improvement Center, and commercial farms. Animals were categorized by sex and feeding system, and growth was modeled using Gompertz, Richards, and von Bertalanffy equations.

Up‐to‐Date Research on the Composition of Blood Slaughterhouse By‐Products Derived FBS Substitutes and Their Applicability to Animal Cell Culture

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is a critical media component in cell culture, but it is also expensive and highly controversial from an animal welfare level, being of fetal blood origin. Therefore, our study aimed to develop FBS substitutes from slaughterhouse waste blood.

Effects of Slaughter Age on the Quality of Gannan Yak Meat: Analysis of Edible Quality, Nutritional Value, and GC × GC‐ToF‐MS of the Longissimus Dorsi Muscle

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2025.
Gannan yak meat is a natural green organic food with rich nutritional value. However, the slaughter age of Gannan yaks in the market is older and has lower meat quality. The meat quality of Gannan yak aged 2–4 years is the best, and the content of monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fats is the highest.

Prediction of Carcass Yield by Ultrasound in Hanwoo

Journal of Animal Science and Technology, 2003
This study was conducted to predict the carcass yield traits using ultrasound before slaughter and to enhance the prediction accuracy of carcass yield grade by applying various strategies. For this experiment, five hundred seventy three Hanwoo steers of 24 months of age were used.

Genomic Prediction and Genome‐Wide Association Studies for Productivity, Conformation and Heat Tolerance Traits in Tropical Smallholder Dairy Cows

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 3, Page 322-341, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Genomic selection (GS) and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) have not been investigated in Vietnamese dairy cattle, even for basic milk production traits, largely due to the scarcity of individual phenotype recording in smallholder dairy farms (SDFs).

Four Target Resequencing for the Bovine Major Histocompatibility Complex Region. Proof of Concept

HLA, Volume 105, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT The bovine leukocyte antigen (BoLA) comprises four regions that contain a high density of polymorphic genes and frequently show gene copy number variations (CNV). Therefore, genotyping BoLA using genome‐wide resequencing is difficult. This study aimed to develop four probe sets for resequencing of the BoLA region using a hybridization capture ...

Genetic diversity and footprint of the Ethiopian cattle population, and the application of molecular information on sustainable cattle genetic improvement: Opportunities, challenges, and future directions in Ethiopia. A comprehensive review

Biological Diversity, Volume 1, Issue 3-4, Page 147-157, December 2024.
Ethiopia's cattle have rich genetic diversity due to different environmental conditions, breeds, and geographical isolation. Molecular markers (microsatellites and SNPs) have been instrumental in assessing genetic variability. Preserving this diversity is essential for resilience against diseases and adaptation to climate change.

The role of G protein‐coupled receptors and their ligands in animal domestication

Animal Genetics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 893-906, December 2024.
Abstract The domestication of plants and animals has resulted in one of the most significant cultural and socio‐economical transitions in human history. Domestication of animals, including human‐supervised reproduction, largely uncoupled particular animal species from their natural, evolutionary history driven by environmental and ecological factors ...
