Structural Variations Associated with Adaptation and Coat Color in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau Cattle

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the landscape of structural variants in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau cattle through long‐read sequencing. Discoveries include metabolic and oxygen‐regulation gene variants, along with a 2‐Mb KIT‐containing inversion and translocations responsible for cattle gray coat. These findings highlight the significant role of structural variants in

Are veterinary drug maximum residue limits protectionist? International evidence

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We analyze the distribution of maximum residue limits (MRLs) on veterinary drugs used in animal production and aquaculture in a global context of food consumption and trade. We compare MRLs by drug‐product pairs for a large set of countries, commodities, and drugs.

Digestibility of Edible Domestic Waste by Sheep

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1982
Abstract Seven young rams, equipped with simple cannulae in rumen, duodenum, and terminal ileum, were fed diets that contained 90% edible domestic waste (experimental group) or concentrate of grains and soybean meal (control group) and 10% pelleted wheat straw in a crossover-design metabolism trial.

Price Premiums for Single‐Name and Compound‐Name Geographical Indications in Swiss Cheese Trade

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geographical indications (GIs) have become increasingly important in agri‐food markets, especially in Europe. For Swiss cheese imports and exports, we analyze whether GIs are associated with higher trade prices. We find that price premiums can be obtained for both exports and imports. However, this is only the case for cheeses with single name
