Complete genome sequence of bartonella bacilliformis strain KC584 (ATCC 35686)
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020)
Bartonella bacilliformis is the biological agent of Carrion's disease, a vector-borne, life-threatening human bartonellosis restricted to South America. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of B. bacilliformis KC584 ...
Metafounders May Reduce Bias in Composite Cattle Genomic Predictions
(2021-08-20)
Metafounders are pseudo-individuals that act as proxies for animals in base populations. When metafounders are used, individuals from different breeds can be related through pedigree, improving the compatibility between ...
Organization of plastid genomes in the freshwater red algal order Batrachospermales (Rhodophyta)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-02-01)
Little is known about genome organization in members of the order Batrachospermales, and the infra-ordinal relationship remains unresolved. Plastid (cp) genomes of seven members of the freshwater red algal order Batrachospermales ...
Genome-wide associations and detection of candidate genes for direct and maternal genetic effects influencing growth traits in the Montana Tropical (R) Composite population
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-11-01)
The Montana Tropical (R) Composite beef cattle have been developed in Brazil to serve as a genetic resource to meet the consumers' needs for higher-quality meat while animals are raised in extensive production systems under ...
Accuracy of genomic selection for age at puberty in a multi-breed population of tropically adapted beef cattle
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-02-01)
Genomic selection is becoming a standard tool in livestock breeding programs, particularly for traits that are hard to measure. Accuracy of genomic selection can be improved by increasing the quantity and quality of data ...
Transcriptionally active LTR retrotransposons in Eucalyptus genus are differentially expressed and insertionally polymorphic
(BioMed Central, 2015-08-14)
In Eucalyptus genus, studies on genome composition and transposable elements (TEs) are particularly scarce. Nearly half of the recently released Eucalyptus grandis genome is composed by retrotransposons and this data ...
Genomic selection for meat quality traits in Nelore cattle
(2019-02-01)
The objective of this study was to present heritability estimates and accuracy of genomic prediction using different methods for meat quality traits in Nelore cattle. Approximately 5000 animals with phenotypes and genotypes ...
The anolis lizard genome: an amniote genome without isochores?
(Oxford University Press, 2016)
Two articles published 5 years ago concluded that the genome of the lizard Anolis carolinensis is an amniote genome without isochores. This claim was apparently contradicting previous results on the general presence of an ...
Genetic Architecture of Carcass and Meat Quality Traits in Montana Tropical (R) Composite Beef Cattle
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2020-02-27)
The Montana Tropical(R) Composite is a recently developed beef cattle population that is rapidly expanding in Brazil and other tropical countries. This is mainly due to its improved meat quality and adaptation to tropical ...
Estimates of genomic heritability and genome-wide association study for fatty acids profile in Santa Inês sheep
(BioMed Central, 2018)
Abstract
Background
Despite the health concerns and nutritional importance of fatty acids, there is a relative paucity of studies in the literature that report genetic or ...
