Effective Selection for Lower Mortality in Organic Pigs through Selection for Total Number Born and Number of Dead Piglets

Animals, 2022
Selection for the number of living pigs on day 11 (L11) aims to reduce piglet mortality and increase litter size simultaneously. This approach could be sub-optimal, especially for organic pig breeding.

Genetic variation and quantitative trait loci associated with developmental stability and the environmental correlation between traits in maize [PDF]

, 2008
There is limited experimental information about the genetic basis of micro-environmental variance (V-E) (developmental stability) and environmental correlations.

Genomic prediction in Nordic Red dairy cattle considering breed origin of alleles

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
: This study investigated the reliability of genomic prediction (GP) using breed origin of alleles (BOA) approach in the Nordic Red (RDC) population, which has an admixed population structure.

QTLMAS 2009: simulated dataset [PDF]

, 2010
Background - The simulation of the data for the QTLMAS 2009 Workshop is described. Objective was to simulate observations from a growth curve which was influenced by a number of QTL.

A century after Fisher : time for a new paradigm in quantitative genetics

, 2013
Quantitative genetics traces its roots back through more than a century of theory, largely formed in the absence of directly observable genotype data, and has remained essentially unchanged for decades.

Prioritizing candidate genes post-GWAS using multiple sources of data for mastitis resistance in dairy cattle

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Improving resistance to mastitis, one of the costliest diseases in dairy production, has become an important objective in dairy cattle breeding. However, mastitis resistance is influenced by many genes involved in multiple processes, including

Dissecting closely linked association signals in combination with the mammalian phenotype database can identify candidate genes in dairy cattle

BMC Genetics, 2019
Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successfully implemented in cattle research and breeding. However, moving from the associations to identify the causal variants and reveal underlying mechanisms have proven complicated. In dairy

Prioritizing candidate genes for fertility in dairy cows using gene-based analysis, functional annotation and differential gene expression

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background An unfavorable genetic correlation between milk production and fertility makes simultaneous improvement of milk production and fertility difficult in cattle breeding. Rapid genetic improvement in milk production traits in dairy cattle has been

Integrative analyses of genetic variation in enzyme activities of primary carbohydrate metabolism reveal distinct modes of regulation in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2008
Background Plant primary carbohydrate metabolism is complex and flexible, and is regulated at many levels. Changes of transcript levels do not always lead to changes in enzyme activities, and these do not always affect metabolite levels and fluxes.
