Effects of alleles in crossbred pigs estimated for genomic prediction depend on...
Guimarães, Simone E. F.; Sevillano, Claudia A.; Napel, Jan ten; Silva, Fabyano F.; Calus, Mario P. L.This study investigated if the allele effect of a given single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) for crossbred performance in pigs estimated in a genomic prediction model differs depending on its breed-of-origin, and how these are related to estimated effects for purebred performance.SNP-allele substitution effects were estimated for a commonly used SNP panel using a genomic best linear unbiased prediction model wi...
Weighted single-step GWAS and gene network analysis reveal new candidate genes ...
Marques, Daniele B. D.; Bastiaansen, John W. M.; Broekhuijse, Marleen L. W. J.; Lopes, Marcos S.; Knol, Egbert F.; Harlizius, BarbaraIn recent years, there has been increased interest in the study of the molecular processes that affect semen traits. In this study, our aim was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) regions associated with four semen traits (motility, progressive motility, number of sperm cells per ejaculate and total morphological defects) in two commercial pig lines (L1: Large White type and L2: Landrace type). Since the ...
NIK1-mediated translation suppression functions as a plant antiviral immunity m...
Zorzatto, Cristiane; Machado, João Paulo B.; Lopes, Kênia V. G.; Nascimento, Kelly J. T.; Pereira, Welison A.; Brustolini, Otávio J. B.Plants and plant pathogens are subject to continuous co-evolutionary pressure for dominance, and the outcomes of these interactions can substantially impact agriculture and food security^ 1–3 . In virus– plant interactions, one of the major mechanisms for plant antiviral immunity relies on RNA silencing, which is often suppressed by co-evolving virus suppressors, thus enhancing viral pathogenicity in susceptibl...
Genetic parameters of body weight and egg traits in meat-type quail
Silva, Luciano P.; Ribeiro, Jeferson C.; Crispim, Aline C.; Silva, Felipe G.; Bonafé, Cristina M.; Silva, Fabyano F.; Torres, Robledo A.Data from two quail strains, UFV1 and UFV 2, measured weekly from hatch to sixth week in a total of seven live body weight traits were used aiming to estimate genetic correlations and heritabilities. After females were evaluated they were monitored in their egg-laying phase, in which the total egg number, the average weight of the eggs and the average specific gravity of eggs were measured. Multi-trait analysis...
Molecular factors underlying the deposition of intramuscular fat and collagen i...
Martins, Taiane S.; Sanglard, Letícia M. P.; Silva, Walmir; Chizzotti, Mário L.; Rennó, Luciana N.; Serão, Nick V. L.; Silva, Fabyano F.Studies have shown that intramuscular adipogenesis and fibrogenesis may concomitantly occur in skeletal muscle of beef cattle. Thus, we hypothesized that the discrepancy of intramuscular fat content in beef from Nellore and Angus was associated with differences in intramuscular adipogenesis and fibrogenesis during the finishing phase. To test our hypothesis, longissimus muscle samples of Nellore (n = 6; BW = 37...
Fine mapping and single nucleotide polymorphism effects estimation on pig chrom...
Hidalgo, André M.; Lopes, Paulo S.; Paixão, Débora M.; Silva, Fabyano F.; Bastiaansen, John W.M.; Paiva, Samuel R.; Faria, Danielle A.Fine mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) from previous linkage studies was performed on pig chromosomes 1, 4, 7, 8, 17, and X which were known to harbor QTL. Traits were divided into: growth performance, carcass, internal organs, cut yields, and meat quality. Fifty families were used of a F2 population produced by crossing local Brazilian Piau boars with commercial sows. The linkage map consisted of 237 SN...
Geminivirus data warehouse: a database enriched with machine learning approaches
Silva, Jose Cleydson F.; Carvalho, Thales F. M.; Basso, Marcos F.; Deguchi, Michihito; Pereira, Welison A.; Vidigal, Pedro M. P.The Geminiviridae family encompasses a group of single-stranded DNA viruses with twinned and quasi-isometric virions, which infect a wide range of dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous plants and are responsible for significant economic losses worldwide. Geminiviruses are divided into nine genera, according to their insect vector, host range, genome organization, and phylogeny reconstruction. Using rolling-circle...
The diversification of begomovirus populations is predominantly driven by mutat...
Lima, Alison T. M.; Silva, Jose ́ C. F.; Silva, Fábio N.; Castillo-Urquiza, Gloria P.; Silva, Fabyano F.; Seah, Yee M.; Mizubuti, Eduardo S. G.Begomoviruses (single-stranded DNA plant viruses) are responsible for serious agricultural threats. Begomovirus populations exhibit a high degree of within-host genetic variation and evolve as quickly as RNA viruses. Although the recombination-prone nature of begomoviruses has been extensively demonstrated, the relative contribution of recombination and mutation to the genetic variation of begomovirus populatio...
Revealing new candidate genes for reproductive traits in pigs: combining Bayesi...
Verardo, Lucas L.; Silva, Fabyano F.; Lopes, Marcos S.; Madsen, Ole; Bastiaansen, John W. M.; Knol, Egbert F.; Kelly, Mathew; Varona, LuisReproductive traits such as number of stillborn piglets (SB) and number of teats (NT) have been evaluated in many genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Most of these GWAS were performed under the assumption that these traits were normally distributed. However, both SB and NT are discrete (e.g. count) variables. Therefore, it is necessary to test for better fit of other appropriate statistical models based on ...
