Heritability of cortisol response to confinement stress in European sea bass dicentrarchus labrax
Filip Volckaert,Bart Hellemans,Costas Batargias,Bruno Louro,C. Massault,C. Massault,Jeroen Van Houdt,Chris Haley,Dirk-Jan de Koning,Dirk-Jan de Koning,Adelino V.M. Canario +10 more
TL;DR: Heritability of cortisol response to stress is low in European sea bass and since it is known to vary greatly among species, further studies are necessary to understand the reasons for these differences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual animal model estimates of genetic parameters for performance test traits of male and female landrace pigs tested in a commercial nucleus herd
TL;DR: The lowest estimates of the genetic correlations, which were observed in data sets where the environments appeared to differ most, indicate that G × E interactions may be a problem in populations where males and females are subject to test regimes with greater differences than those seen here.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and linkage relationships for new microsatellite markers of the sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.)
Dimitry A. Chistiakov,Bart Hellemans,Costas S. Tsigenopoulos,Andy Law,N. Bartley,Daniela Bertotto,A. Libertini,G. Kotoulas,Chris Haley,Filip Volckaert +9 more
TL;DR: Twenty-eight polymorphic microsatellites were isolated from the sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, using a microsatellite enrichment protocol and selective hybridization with oligonucleotide probes, finding linkage between 26 loci and revealed eight linkage groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Right Ventricular Hypertrophy Secondary to Pulmonary Hypertension Is Linked to Rat Chromosome 17 Evaluation of Cardiac Ryanodine Ryr2 Receptor as a Candidate
Lan Zhao,Abdelkrim Sebkhi,Derek J. Nunez,Lu Long,Chris Haley,Josiane Szpirer,Claude Szpirer,Alan J. Williams,Martin R. Wilkins +8 more
TL;DR: These data provide the first demonstration of a QTL linked to the RV response to hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension and suggest that the Ryr2 receptor gene lies within this QTL and merits further investigation as a candidate for this differential RV response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic variation within the Hereford breed of cattle.
TL;DR: Breeding strategies that preserve original native genes in British Hereford populations should be considered by commercial breeders, in order to prevent the long-term loss of genetic variation within the breed.
