Supplementation of Dimethylglycine Sodium Salt in Sow Milk Reverses Skeletal Muscle Redox Status Imbalance and Mitochondrial Dysfunction of Intrauterine Growth Restriction Newborns

Antioxidants, 2022
The current study sought to understand the mechanism underlying skeletal muscle dysfunction brought on by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and to explore the treatment benefits of applying dimethylglycine sodium salt (DMG-Na) in sow milk to ...

Sow and piglet factors determining variation of colostrum intake between and within litters.

Animal, 2017
Colostrum intake has a short- and long-term beneficial impact on piglet performance and mortality. Sows' colostrum production and piglets' colostrum intake are limited and highly variable.

An Increasing Misalignment Between Crop Distribution and Environmental Resources Under Climate Change in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Climate change reshapes the spatial alignment between crop production and environmental resources. Using multi‐source data and a crop model, integrated climatic, water, and soil endowments for maize and wheat are quantified and compared with harvest distributions.

Interaction of CP levels in maternal and nursery diets, and its effect on performance, protein digestibility, and serum urea levels in piglets

Animal, 2021
Reduced protein levels in nursery diets have been associated with a lower risk of postweaning diarrhea, but the interaction with CP levels in maternal diet on the performance of the offspring remains unclear.

Single‐Cell Transcriptomics Reveals FLS2‐Dependent Hypoxia Signaling and ERF13‐Mediated Transcription During flg22‐Triggered Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs sc‐RNA sequencing, genetics, and phenotyping to systematically map the cell‐type‐specific immune responses triggered by flg22. It reveals FLS2‐dependent transcriptional reprogramming in epidermal and mesophyll cells, and uncovers crosstalk between immune and hypoxia signaling pathways.

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 ...

Traits Defining Sow Lifetime Maternal Performance

Animals, 2022
Declining sow performance with increasing parity or an increase in the number of poor- quality pigs potentially impacts on farm productivity. This study investigated the phenotypic and genetic background of the sow’s influence on (i) the number of pigs ...
