Sow dimensions and loose-housed farrowing pen sizes on commercial piglet-producing farms in Sweden

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica
International 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 ...

Soybean Auxin Transporter PIN3 Regulates Nitrate Acquisition to Improve Nitrogen Use and Seed Traits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Xu et al. discovers that switching off auxin transporters in soybean, PIN3a and PIN3b, disrupts auxin flow; this triggers ARF‐STF3/4 signal cascade to activate the nitrate importer NPF2.13 and soil nitrogen acquisition. Multi‐year field trials show edited soybeans maintain yield with higher oil content, offering a potential genetic route to improve ...

A Mutation Losing an RBP‐Binding Site in the LncRNA NORSF Transcript Influences Granulosa Cell Apoptosis and Sow Fertility

Advanced Science
Sow fertility is an economically important quantitative trait. Hundreds of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) containing tens of thousands of potential candidate genes are excavated. However, among these genes, non‐coding RNAs including long non‐coding RNAs (

Sow-level risk factors for stillbirth of piglets in organic sow herds.

Animal, 2017
In Danish organic pig production, one-third of total born piglets die before weaning, and stillbirth has previously crudely been estimated to account for 27% of the total preweaning mortality.

Bioinspired Cellulose‐Based Ultra‐Slippery Film with Superior Transmittance, Anti‐Fouling and De‐Icing Properties for the Durable and Efficient Output of Solar Panels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Accumulations of ice, dust, bird droppings, and algae pose a significant risk of reducing the energy‐conversion efficiency of solar panels. Here, an articular cartilage‐inspired cellulose‐based ultra‐slippery film with highly comprehensive performances is reported.

A Forward Genetics Strategy for High‐Throughput Gene Identification via Precise Image‐Based Phenotyping of an Indexed EMS Mutant Library

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The GeneHunter‐Gene‐Level Association (GH‐GLA) pipeline enables high‐throughput gene identification in an indexed EMS population of wheat cultivar KN9204. It identifies 5905 trait‐associated wheat genes and validates key regulators of kernel weight and spikelet architecture via gene editing and haplotype analysis.
