Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

Genetic dissection and transcriptomic analysis of a novel high-tillering phenotype in rice derived from weedy rice (Hapcheonaengmi3) and Tongil-type Rice (Milyang23). [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) tillering is a critical determinant of grain yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying non‐productive tillers remain poorly understood. Here, we report a novel high‐tillering (HT) phenotype derived from a cross between the elite cultivar Milyang23 and weedy rice Hapcheonaengmi3. The HT phenotype was absent in parental

The phenotypic expression of QTLs for partial resistance to barley leaf rust during plant development [PDF]

, 2010
Partial resistance is generally considered to be a durable form of resistance. In barley, Rphq2, Rphq3 and Rphq4 have been identified as consistent quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for partial resistance to the barley leaf rust pathogen Puccinia hordei ...

Genetic Parameters and Genome‐Wide Association Studies for Fertility and Reproduction Traits in U.S. Katahdin Sheep Based on the Single‐Step GBLUP Methodology

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sheep production contributes to a secure and diverse food and fibre supply in the United States, with growing ethnic diversity strengthening demand. Katahdin is a composite hair‐type sheep breed developed in the United States that has become the most popular breed in many regions of the country and the first one to have genomic selection ...

Genetic Influences on Brain Gene Expression in Rats Selected for Tameness and Aggression

, 2014
Inter-individual differences in many behaviors are partly due to genetic differences, but the identification of the genes and variants that influence behavior remains challenging.
