Advanced Science, EarlyView.Single‐cell transcriptomics of soybean roots soon after rhizobial inoculation reveals epidermal and cortical cell‐specific programs and gene‐regulatory networks acting in symbiosis establishment. We identify an ethylene‐driven regulatory circuit involving WRKY6.3/6.4 transcription factors targeting select Nod19 genes that promotes infection‐thread ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...

Sow longevity: phenotypic time trends, the effect of litter size, and economic values
Frontiers in Animal ScienceWe analyzed data of 371,343 PIC-Camborough® parent sows housed in 329 commercial farms across the world. From sow birthyear 2000 to 2024, litter size (total number born, TNB) steadily increased each year by 0.16 piglets per litter.

Competing risk analyses of longevity in Duroc sows with a special emphasis on leg conformation
Animal, 2009 A competing risk approach was used to evaluate the influence of several factors on culling risk for 587 Duroc sows. Three different analyses were performed according to whether sow failure was due to death during productive life (DE) or to one of two ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Primary cultures of neuroblasts isolated from the nucleus basalis of Meynert of 12‐weeks‐old human foetuses were prepared. Whole‐cell patch‐clamp recordings were performed by injecting a depolarizing stimulus current (+500 pA; 500 ms), and the membrane voltage recorded; this stimulus current evoked periodic‐like oscillations in membrane voltage ...

Sow dimensions and loose-housed farrowing pen sizes on commercial piglet-producing farms in Sweden
Acta Veterinaria ScandinavicaInternational interest in loose-housed farrowing is growing and there are ongoing discussions within the European Union (EU) on new legal requirements. However, there is a lack of empirical data on loose-housed farrowing pen sizes and sow dimensions in ...

Splenic Hamartoblastoma in a Sow.
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1994 Multiple lesions of splenic hamartoblastoma were found incidentally in a 2- to 3-year-old crossbred sow. The predominant cells, characterized by extreme nuclear irregularity and hemidesmosome-like structures, were considered to be derived from reticular cells of the spleen, and demonstrated infiltrative growth.
