Alternative approaches to dryland reclamation enhance vegetation cover and soil stability at a former uranium mine

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Conventional reclamation methods to recover dryland ecosystems after mineral extraction often have low success. Alternative reclamation techniques may help overcome the many challenges to establishing persistent native vegetation and stable soils.

Influence of MC1R Gene Variants on Coat Color of Indicine Cattle Breeds

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Indicine cattle display a broad range of coat colors, representing a relevant and breed‐defining trait required for registration in breeder association. Among the genes involved in pigmentation, MC1R stands out for modulating the synthesis of melanin‐related proteins and remains poorly explored in indicine cattle breeds. Therefore, we aimed to

Gene expression studies of developing bovine muscle from two different beef cattle breeds [PDF]

, 2007
Background: The muscle fiber number and fiber composition of muscle is largely determined during prenatal development. In order to discover genes that are involved in determining adult muscle phenotypes, we studied the gene expression profile of ...

Can species adapt to drought using multiple strategies? Lessons from the California poppy

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2918-2932, June 2026.
Summary Plants can escape drought by completing life cycles early, tolerate drought by increasing physiological limits, or avoid drought stress by obtaining or using water more efficiently. It remains unclear whether strategies vary within species across their distributional ranges due to trade‐offs, and whether species can exhibit plasticity in ...

Development and Internal Validation of a Machine Learning Model for Predicting Long‐Term Opioid Therapy After Hip Fracture Surgery in Older, Opioid‐Naïve Adults

European Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Long‐term opioid therapy (LTOT) after hip fracture surgery is a common postoperative complication associated with adverse outcomes, yet tools to identify at‐risk patients among opioid‐naïve older adults are lacking. This study aimed to develop and internally validate a parsimonious model to predict LTOT following hip fracture ...

Impact of Model Parameterisation and Variance Component Estimates on Genomic Predictions of Carcass Traits in Montana Composite Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 3, Page 431-442, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the influence of variance component (VC) estimates, obtained from different models and two relationship matrices, pedigree‐based (BLUP) and genomic information‐based (ssGBLUP), on genomic predictions of carcass traits in Montana composite cattle.

A CACNA2D2‐Related Recessive Form of Cerebellar Abiotrophy in Angus Cattle

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Cerebellar disease in ruminants is often virus‐induced and non‐genetic, but there are also rare inherited forms of cerebellar hypoplasia and cerebellar abiotrophy (CA). So far, no causal variant has been reported for these conditions in cattle. Two inbred Angus calves suspected of having cerebellar disease were reported in Scotland.

Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assemblies for Norwegian Red Cattle

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Norwegian Red (NR) cattle are the main dairy breed in Norway, bred according to a broad breeding goal including health and fertility since the 1970s. Genomic studies on NR cattle have relied on the public Hereford reference, thus increasing the risk of missing or misrepresenting NR breed‐specific variation.

Single nucleotide polymorphism discovery in bovine liver using RNA-seq technology [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundRNA-seq is a useful next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology that has been widely used to understand mammalian transcriptome architecture and function. In this study, a breed-specific RNA-seq experiment was utilized to detect putative single
