in this article with an emphasis on genetic, biochemical and metabolic factors contributing …

Suggestive QTL affecting raw firmness scores and average Instron force, tenderness,
juiciness, and chewiness on cooked meat were mapped to pig chromosome 2 using a three-…

Stress is a major risk factor for numerous neuropsychiatric diseases. However, susceptibility
to stress and the qualitative nature of stress effects on behavior differ markedly among …

Phenome-wide association is a novel reverse genetic strategy to analyze genome-to-phenome
relations in human clinical cohorts. Here we test this approach using a large murine …

We used PCR amplification of cDNA prepared from skin biopsies to determine the full-length
protein-coding sequence of tyrosinase (TYR) in cattle of several coat colors. An insertion of …

… The first genetic evidence showing that the CAST gene is not only a potential functional
candidate but also harbours genetic variants that influence tenderness was reported by Ciobanu …

Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) are of particular economic importance to the
global shrimp aquaculture industry. However, limited genomics information is available for the …

A remarkably diverse set of traits maps to a region on mouse distal chromosome 1 (Chr 1)
that corresponds to human Chr 1q21–q23. This region is highly enriched in quantitative trait …

Cattle are reared in diverse environments and collecting phenotypic body temperature (BT)
measurements to characterize BT variation across diverse environments is difficult and …
