TL;DR: A genome for ewe and ewe Sheep-specific genetic changes underlie differences in lipid metabolism between sheep and other mammals, and may have contributed to the production of wool.
Journal ArticleDOI
A microRNA catalog of the developing chicken embryo identified by a deep sequencing approach
TL;DR: A bioinformatics pipeline was developed to distinguish authentic mature miRNA sequences from other classes of small RNAs and short RNA fragments represented in the sequencing data and detected almost all of the previously known chicken miRNAs and their respective miRNA* sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The findings support the essentiality of milk to the survival of mammalian neonates and the establishment of milk secretory mechanisms more than 160 million years ago and suggest that this diversity of milk protein composition across species is primarily due to other mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
A validated whole-genome association study of efficient food conversion in cattle.
TL;DR: Using whole-genome association, it is found that DNA variants in or near proteins contributing to the background use of energy of the cell were 10 times as common as those affecting appetite and body-mass homeostasis and suggests that certain subsets of micro-RNA are more important for the regulation of this trait.

TL;DR: Very few of the significant markers for female reproduction traits for the Brahman and Tropical Composite breeds were located in the same chromosomal regions, however, fatness and BW traits as well as serum IGF1 concentration were found to be associated with similar genome regions within and between breeds.
