Variance components estimation of complex traits including microbiota information
Estimación de componentes de varianza de caracteres complejos incluyendo información de microbiota
(2018-07-13)
The influence of the microbiome on relevant complex traits for dairy cattle, such as feed efficiency or methane emissions has been well established. Further, recent studies have released evidences on the control of the ...
Effect of alternative synchronisation treatments on the vaginal microbiota of ewes and their impact on pregnancy rate
(2022)
The low pregnancy rate by artificial insemination in sheep represents a fundamental challenge for breeding programmes. In this species, estrous synchronization is done by manipulating hormonal regimens through the insertion ...
Dry matter intake, methane emissions and microbiome profiles as new traits for feed efficiency
(2021-04)
This study estimated the genetic parameters for feed efficiency, dry matter intake, methane production, and ruminal microbiome profile in order to incorporate feed efficiency into the breeding goal. Data consisted of 11,042 ...
Rumen eukaryotes are the main phenotypic risk factors for larger methane emissions in dairy cattle
(2022-07-06)
Mitigation of methane emissions from dairy cattle is a relevant strategy to reduce environmental impact from livestock as well as to increase farm profitability through improvement of energy usage. The objective of this ...
