Effect of the Texel muscling QTL (TM-QTL) on spine characteristics in purebred Texel lambs

open access: yesSmall Ruminant Research, 2014
Previous work showed that the Texel muscling QTL (TM-QTL) results in pronounced hypertrophy in the loin muscle, with the largest phenotypic effects observed in lambs inheriting a single copy of the allele from the sire. As the loin runs parallel to the spinal vertebrae, and the development of muscle and bone are closely linked, the primary aim of this ...

Feedback on long-term integrity of Multi-linear drainage geocomposites installed on landfill final covers after 10 and 12 years of operation [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The use of drainage geocomposites in landfill final covers facilitates surface water drainage, contributing to long-term stability. However, validating their durability beyond accelerated laboratory aging tests remains a challenge. The most direct method

Spina bifida, diplomyelia and multiple malformations in a Texel lamb [PDF]

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2021
ABSTRACT: This report described the clinical and pathological aspects of open spina bifida and diplomyelia along with multiple congenital malformations in a Texel lamb. Clinically, paresis of the thoracic limbs, paralysis of the pelvic limbs and a cutaneous opening in the lumbosacral region were observed.
