Elisabete
Background The recently constructed river buffalo whole-genome radiation hybrid panel (BBURH5000) has already been used to generate preliminary radiation hybrid (RH) maps for several chromosomes, and buffalo-bovine comparative chromosome maps have been constructed. Here, we present the...

Bacillus thuringiensis isolates from the Philippines: habitat distribution, delta-endotoxin diversity, and toxicity to rice stem borers (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
Download1998
Cohen, M. B., Aguda, R. M., Bottrell, D. G., Gould, F. L., Litsinger, J. A., Theunis, W., Peferoen, M., Cruz, W. T., Decock, C., Lambert, B.
Abstract: Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner isolates were detected in 57% of 801 samples of rice grain dust, soil, rice field arthropods, and miscellaneous habitats (rice straw compost and mammal faeces) collected at 100 sites in the Philippines. The collection yielded 3950 isolates of B....

Bioinformatic analyses in early host response to Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus PRRSV reveals pathway differences between pigs with alternate genotypes for a major host response QTL

Bao, Hua, Schroyen, Martine, Rowland, Robert R.R., Guan, Le L., Stothard, Paul, Reecy, James M., Fritz-Waters, Eric, Koltes, James E., Kommadath, Arun, Plastow, Graham S., Eisley, Christopher, Tuggle, Christopher K. , Dekkers, Jack C.M., Lunney, Joan K., Choi, Igseo
Background A region on Sus scrofa chromosome 4 (SSC4) surrounding single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker WUR10000125 (WUR) has been reported to be strongly associated with both weight gain and serum viremia in pigs after infection with PRRS virus (PRRSV). A proposed causal mutation in the...

Characterisation of genetic variation in the pig breeds of China and Europe – The PigBioDiv2 project.
Download2003
Haley, C., Li, K., Plastow, G. , Cardellino, R., Andersson, L., SanCristobal, M., Li, N., Huang, L., Chevalet, C., Blott, S., Groenen, M.
The PigBioDiv2 project will evaluate and compare genetic diversity among the pig breeds of China and Europe. At least 50 Chinese breeds will be sampled and compared with 59 European breeds previously sampled in the PigBioDiv1 project. The European pig biodiversity database will be extended to at...

Pfeffer, B. A., Chader, G. J., Zakeri, Z. F., Wu, S. P., Bernstein, S. L., Wong, P., Chambers, M. L.
Purpose: The clusterin gene encodes a multi-functional protein that has been identified in different tissues, including a number of different eye tissues, primarily in the mouse and to a much lesser extent in humans. Clusterin has been implicated in a number of cellular processes such as lipid...

Digestibility of branched and linear α-gluco-oligosaccharides in vitro and in ileal-cannulated pigs
Download2020-01-01
Hu, Ying, Heyer, Charlotte M.E., Wang, Weilan, Zijlstra, Ruurd T., Gänzle, Michael G.
Isomalto-oligosaccharides (IMOs) may promote health by modulating intestinal microbiota. We hypothesized that the proportion of α–(1 → 6) linkages in IMOs determines their digestibility. Ileal-cannulated pigs were fed diets containing IMO, IMO-DP3 with a greater DP and more α-(1 → 4) linkages,...

Munyaka, Peris M., Blanc, Fany, Estelle, Jordi, Lemonnier, Gaetan, Leplat, Jean-Jacques, Rossignol, Marie-Noelle, Jardet, Deborah, Plastow, Graham, Billon, Yvon, Willing, Benjamin P., Rogel-Gaillard, Claire
The gut microbiota comprises a large and diverse community of bacteria that play a significant role in swine health. Indeed, there is a tight association between the enteric immune system and the overall composition and richness of the microbiota, which is key in the induction, training and...

Effects of silage inoculants on silage fermentation, aerobic stability and animal performance
DownloadFall 2013
Ferulic acid constitutes a major constraint to ruminal fibre digestibility. The overall objective of this study was therefore to determine the effects of a first (non-fibrolytic) - or a third (ferulic acid esterase-producing) - generation inoculant on the fermentation characteristics, aerobic...

EVALUATION OF MEDIUM-CHAIN FATTY ACID SUPPLEMENTATION EFFECTS ON DAIRY COW PERFORMANCE AND RUMEN FERMENTATION
DownloadSpring 2022
Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) are fatty acids with chain lengths between 6-12 carbons and are primarily metabolized by the liver, however they may be absorbed and metabolized by intestinal mucosa. Medium-chain fatty acids provide the animal with available energy quicker as compared to other...

Feed fermentation formulate gut microbiota of weanling pigs - Effects of exopolysaccharides and reutericyclin
DownloadSpring 2015
Enteric bacterial infections, especially post-weaning diarrhea, are among the most common diseases affecting pigs and economically significant in swine production. Antibiotics were a cost-effective method to treat and prevent these bacterial diseases. However, with concerns of the prevalence of...
