The transition period is the most critical period in the lactation cycle of dairy cattle. During this period, cows can be exposed to high oxidative stress (OS), which can be managed through mineral supplementation with antioxidant micronutrients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gene expression profiles of transition dairy cows supplemente...
The conservation of animal genetic resources refers to measures taken to prevent the loss of genetic diversity in livestock populations, including the protection of breeds from extinction. Creole cattle populations have suffered a drastic reduction in recent decades owing to absorbent crosses or replacement with commercial breeds of European or Ind...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have enabled the identification of many causal variants of genetic disorders, the development of parentage tests and the analysis of multiple traits in domestic animals. In this study, we evaluated the performance of a Canine Targeted Genotyping-by-Sequencing (GBS) custom panel (Thermo Fisher Scientific...
Mangalarga Marchador (MM) is the most important Brazilian horse breed, with 600 thousand animals registered. The aim of this study carry out the genetic characterization of the breed. Samples were collected from 355 horses [MM, n = 218; Andalusian n = 20; Purebred Lusitano n = 21; Sorraia (SOR) n = 16; Thoroughbred n = 21; Campolina (CAM) n = 21, a...
