Nematode infection on beef cattle in two different productive regions of Argentina's Northwest
(2017-08)
Cattle production in northwest Argentina (NOA) in the last 10 years has grown in importance. However, this growth of livestock brought productive and health constraints such as infection with gastrointestinal nematodes ...
Draft genome sequences of two mycobacterium bovis strains isolated from beef cattle in Paraguay
(2017-07)
This work reports the draft genome sequences of the Mycobacterium bovis strains M1009 and M1010, isolated from the lymph nodes of two infected cows on a beef farm in Paraguay. Comparative genomics between these strains and ...
Early exposure to and subsequent beef cattle performance with saline water
(2016-03)
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the impact of early life exposure to high salt water on later cattle performance with saline water. In Exp. 1, 24 cow/calf pairs were randomly assigned to one of two treatments: ...
Adapting to climate change on desert rangelands: A multi-site comparison of grazing behavior plasticity of heritage and improved beef cattle
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
Climate change is amplifying the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of desert rangeland forages through its impact on precipitation variability. Foraging behavior plasticity (an animal's ability to alter its behavior to cope ...

(Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2019)
La paratuberculosis (PTB) es una enfermedad crónica granulomatosa del tracto gastrointestinal causada por Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), que afecta a rumiantes domésticos y silvestres. La enfermedad ha ...
Genetic Variation in FABP4 and Evaluation of Its Effects on Beef Cattle Fat Content
(2017-01-05)
FABP4 is a protein primarily expressed in adipocytes and macrophages that plays a key role in fatty acid trafficking and lipid hydrolysis. FABP4 gene polymorphisms have been associated with meat quality traits in cattle, ...
Evaluation of the potential use of a meta-population for genomic selection in autochthonous beef cattle populations
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-07)
This study investigated the potential application of genomic selection under a multi-breed scheme in the Spanish autochthonous beef cattle populations using a simulation study that replicates the structure of linkage ...
The relevance of methane emissions from beef production and the challenges of the Argentinean beef production platform
(Elsevier, 2014-11)
The livestock sector faces the challenge to respond to the growing demand for animal protein from an expanding population while reducing environmental impact through GHG emissions. Globally about 2.836 million tons of ...
The effect of Leucaena leucocephala on beef production and its toxicity in the Chaco Region of Argentina
(CIAT, 2014)
Hedgerows of the fodder tree legume, Leucaena leucocephala ssp. glabrata (leucaena), planted with a companion grass, provide productive, profitable and sustainable tropical pasture (Shelton and Dalzell 2007). Although ...
