Seung-Chang Kim, Hong-Chul Jang, Sung-Dae Lee, Hyun-Jung Jung, Jun-Cheol Park, Seung-Hwan Lee, Tae-Hun Kim, Bong-Hwan Choi
This study investigated changes in gene expression by dietary fat source, i.e., beef tallow, soybean oil, olive oil, and coconut oil (each 3% in feed), in both male and female growing-finishing pigs. Real-time PCR was conducted on seven genes (insulin receptor; INSR, insulin receptor substrate; IRS, phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate; PIP3, 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1; PDK...... hiện toàn bộ
Peste des petits ruminants in Pakistan; past, present and future perspectivesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 57 - Trang 1-8 - 2015
Muhammad Abubakar, Muhammad Irfan, Shumaila Manzoor
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is considered to be one of the main constraints to enhancing the productivity of goats and sheep in regions where it is present and becoming endemic. PPR was recognized in Pakistan in early 1990s but got importance during the Participatory Disease Surveillance (PDS) of Rinderpest Eradication Campaign. Lot of research work has been initiated during last decade towar...... hiện toàn bộ
Dietary Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) increases milk yield without losing body weight in lactating sowsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 56 - Trang 1-9 - 2014
Sung-Hoon Lee, Young-Kuk Joo, Jin-Woo Lee, Young-Joo Ha, Joon-Mo Yeo, Wan-Young Kim
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the performance of lactating sows and piglets as well as the immunity of piglets suckling from sows fed CLA. Eighteen multiparous Duroc sows with an average body weight (BW) of 232.0 ± 6.38 kg were randomly selected and assigned to two dietary treatments (n = 9 for each treatment), control (no CLA additio...... hiện toàn bộ
Estimation of effective population size using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data in Jeju horseSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 56 - Trang 1-6 - 2014
Kyoung-Tag Do, Joon-Ho Lee, Hak-Kyo Lee, Jun Kim, Kyung-Do Park
This study was conducted to estimate the effective population size using SNPs data of 240 Jeju horses that had raced at the Jeju racing park. Of the total 61,746 genotyped autosomal SNPs, 17,320 (28.1%) SNPs (missing genotype rate of >10%, minor allele frequency of <0.05 and Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium test P-value of <10–6) were excluded after quality control processes. SNPs on the X and Y chromos...... hiện toàn bộ
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes associated with milk yield in Argentinean Holstein and Holstein x Jersey cowsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 60 - Trang 1-10 - 2018

Research on loci influencing milk production traits of dairy cattle is one of the main topics of investigation in livestock. Many genomic regions and polymorphisms associated with dairy production have been reported worldwide. In this context, the purpose of this study was to identify candidate loci associated with milk yield in Argentinean dairy cattle. A database of candidate genes and single nu...... hiện toàn bộ
