Potential influence of κ-casein and β-lactoglobulin genes in genetic association studies of milk quality traits [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017
Objective From a review of published information on genetic association studies, a meta-analysis was conducted to determine the influence of the genes κ-casein (CSN3) and β-lactoglobulin (LGB) on milk yield traits in Holstein, Jersey, Brown Swiss, and ...

Bridging the Gap Between L1 and L2: Enhanced Emotional Vocabulary Through Elaborative Processing in Spanish‐Speaking English Language Learners

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Foreign languages are often learnt in formal and disembodied environments which may limit the emotional resonance of their vocabulary and their pragmatic usage in real‐life communication. In a context of English as a foreign language (EFL), this study examines whether elaborative processing as a teaching strategy leads to changes in the ...

Peasant Movements and the Fourth Transformation in Mexico: What Does the Theory of Collective Empowerment Tell Us?

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines peasant and Indigenous movements in Mexico since Morena's rise to power in 2018 through the lens of collective empowerment theory, a theory of political‐cultural formation. Beyond offering an empirical assessment, the theory is refined and formalized through an analysis of these movements and their relationship to ...

Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2078-2090, July 2026.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

A meta-analysis approach for annotation and identification of lncRNAs controlling perirenal fat deposition in suckling lambs

Animal Biotechnology
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are being studied in farm animals due to their association with traits of economic interest, such as fat deposition. Based on the analysis of perirenal fat transcriptomes, this research explored the relevance of these ...

Determination of α-tocopherol in pork with high intramuscular fat content

Grasas y Aceites, 1996
Extraction of α-tocopherol from pork samples with low (3%) (LF) or high (9%) (HF) amount of intramuscular fat have been carried out by three different methods, two of them based in saponification plus extraction of α-tocopherol and the other one without ...

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Genome Rearrangements Shape Bacterial Adaptation for Bioremediation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Exposure to xenobiotics triggers genome evolution and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), driving the acquisition of novel catabolic functions. These genomic adaptations provide a competitive fitness advantage that reshapes microbial community structure and enhances biodegradation impact.

Performance of homozygosity by descent in two mice lines divergently selected for birth weight environmental variability

Scientific Reports
Inbreeding can have negative effects, such as increasing the expression of deleterious alleles or reducing fitness. A method based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM) was developed to determine the probability of an individual genome in a homozygous-by-descent

Effect of gender, housing density and the interaction on growth performance and carcass and meat quality of pigs slaughtered at 110 kg body weight

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2012
A total of 228 crossbred pigs were used to investigate the effect of gender (gilts and barrows), density at housing (0.84 and 0.76 m2/pig) and the interaction on growth performance and carcass and merit from 19.4 to 110 kg body weight.

Land Reforms in Cuba: First Empirical Assessment on Productivity Using Crop‐Level Panel Data

Economics of Transition and Institutional Change, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 573-585, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Land reforms implemented in Cuba since 2008 have aimed to increase agricultural production by distributing state‐owned idle lands with land‐use rights. The reforms restricted farmers with the rights from cultivating perennial and capital‐intensive crops.
