A DPP6‐Targeted PET Tracer for Non‐Invasive Imaging of Transplanted Human Islets

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dipeptidyl peptidase‐like protein 6 (DPP6) is a potential molecular imaging biomarker for pancreatic and transplanted islets of Langerhans. 4hD29 is a single‐domain antibody with nanomolar affinity for DPP6. Here, we demonstrate the generation and validation of [68Ga]Ga‐NOTA‐4hD29 for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging of ...

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

open access: yesXenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Genetic Determination of Maternal Behaviour in Pigs

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In sows, maternal behaviour is a commercially important trait which affects sow and piglet welfare and the quality and safety of human‐animal interactions, especially if free farrowing of sows without crates is in place. The aim of this study was to evaluate maternal behaviour and to estimate its quantitative genetic parameters in Swiss ...

Unraveling Biotypes Related to Thermotolerance During Lactation in Maternal‐Line Pigs Through Principal Component and Factor Analyses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat stress imposes significant challenges to welfare, health, and productivity of lactating sows due to their limited thermoregulatory capacity and increased metabolic heat load. Genetic selection for improved heat tolerance is a promising yet complex approach, given the large number of biological processes involved in heat stress response ...

Genetic Parameters for Feed Efficiency Indicator Traits in a Rotational Crossbreed Sow Population During Lactation Period

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selection of feed efficient sows effectively converting feed into milk production and body weight gain will contribute to the overall profitability of pig farming systems. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for feed efficiency indicator traits during the sow lactation period, and to infer ...

Re-sequencing 142 rice genomes reveals the fine-scale population structure and phylogenetic affinities of landraces of Kashmir Valley: Evidence from domestication and adaptive signatures. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Genome
Abstract The emergence of rice (Oryza sativa) as a cultivated crop has represented a landmark in the history of agriculture in Kashmir Valley. Unlike winter cereals, such as wheat and barley, which exhibit clear West‐Asian origins, rice attained a different domestication trajectory linked to East‐Asian Neolithic cultures.

Heritability of Productive, Reproductive and Carcass Traits in Pure‐Bred and Cross‐Bred Pigs: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritability (h2) is a key parameter in animal breeding, but its magnitude and consistency across pure‐bred (PB) and cross‐bred (CB) pig populations remain poorly understood. This study aimed to compare heritability estimates between PB and CB populations for economically relevant traits through a systematic review and meta‐analysis.
