CITIZENS’ PREFERENCES FOR THE CONSERVATION OF AGRICULTURAL GENETIC RESOURCES

Frontiers in Genetics, 2014
Evaluation of conservation policies for agricultural genetic resources (AgGR) requires information on the use and non-use values of plant varieties and animal breeds, as well as on the preferences for in situ and ex situ conservation.

Effects of supplementary concentrate level and separate or total mixed ration feeding on performance of growing dairy bulls

Agricultural and Food Science, 2014
A randomised complete block design was used to study the effects on animal performance of (1) the increasing level of supplementary concentrate with grass silage (GS), and (2) feeding GS and concentrates separately or as a total mixed ration (TMR).

Assessing the Quality of Agricultural Landscape Change with Multiple Dimensions

Land, 2014
Better recognition of public perceptions is called for in developing policies that affect landscape qualities, such as agri-environmental policies. The present study focused on the evaluation of typical agricultural landscapes in Finland. We utilized and

Water consumption and wastewaters in fresh-cut vegetable production

Agricultural and Food Science, 2014
Controlled water use is an important component of sustainable fresh-cut vegetable production because of limited water resources, and also for controlling the quality of wastewater re-used in vegetable processing or for irrigating on fields.

Effects of a dietary organic acid mixture and of dietary fibre levels on ileal and faecal nutrient apparent digestibility, bacterial nitrogen flow, microbial metabolite concentrations and rate of passage in the digestive tract of pigs

Animal, 2007
Six 34-kg barrows were fitted with a post-valve T-caecum cannula and assigned to six dietary treatments according to a 6 × 5 change-over design to study how a mixture of formic acid, sorbate, and benzoate (0 or 8.4 g/kg feed) influences apparent ileal ...

Genetic parameters for bone strength, osteochondrosis and meat percentage in Finnish Landrace and Yorkshire pigs

Animal, 2010
Osteochondrosis (OC) is a major factor causing joint problems that affect animal welfare and pork production profitability. Strong bones are also important in the slaughtering process, especially as broken bones can lead to rejections of parts of the ...

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Effect of the rate of increase in concentrate allowance with concentrates high or low in starch on the performance of dairy cows in early lactation

Animal, 2008
The effect of the rate of increase in concentrate allowance after calving with two concentrate mixes (A and B) differing in composition was evaluated using 64 Finnish Ayrshire cows during the first 100 days of lactation.
