The fatty acid (FA) composition of adipose tissue influences the nutritional quality meat products. unsaturation level FAs is determined by desaturases such as stearoyl-CoA (SCDs), which are under control transcription factor sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP). Differences in SCD genotype may thus confer variations lipid metabolism and FA content among cattle breeds. This study investigated correlations between lipogenic gene expression levels subcutaneous beef breeds...
Salers are a native French breed used for beef and dairy production that has expanded to all the continents. The was introduced north of Spain in 1985 with only 15 individuals from France successfully increased over 20 000 animals. Although time new animals have been imported breeding, it is possible limiting number founder could resulted reduction genetic diversity found Spanish Salers. Thus, purpose present study characterize evaluate effect due reduced first reproducers. A total 403 12...
The northern Iberian Peninsula is home to a variety of autochthonous cattle breeds, such as the Terreña and Pirenaica. With objective characterizing matrilineal lineages these study mitochondrial DNA was performed. D-loop 155 individuals analyzed most were carriers T3 haplogroup, while haplogroups T T1 much less frequent. A Pirenaica individual belonging Q haplogroup found. To verify presence individual, entire sequenced compared with two descendants. assigned Q1 sub-haplogroup. These...
Pirenaica is the most important autochthonous cattle breed within Protected Geographic Indication (PGI) beef quality label in Basque region, northern Spain. The short tandem repeats (STRs) are powerful markers to elucidate forensic cases and traceability across agri-food sector. main objective of present work was study phylogenetic relationships other breeds typically raised region provide minimum number STR for parentage purposes. 30-STR panel recommended by International Society Animal...
The Basque Country is home to the Latxa sheep breed, which divided in several varieties such as Black Face (LBKF) and Blonde (LBLF). Mitochondrial DNA control region analysis of 174 male (97 LBKF 77 LBLF) was performed with objective characterizing maternal lineages these two that are basis produce cheese Idiazabal quality label. percentage unique haplotypes 77.32% 67.53% LBLF. Most individuals were classified into B haplogroup (98.85%), while A much less frequent. Two (one one LBLF), both...
Abstract Consistent differences among melting curves of PCR‐amplified DNA fragments are treated by normalizing the relative fluorescence units (RFU) and performing a clustering analysis, but statistically significant not usually determined. In present study, an analysis based on functional data (FDA) was implemented to evaluate existence between normalized RFU obtained from PCR‐HRM (high‐resolution melting) using ANOVA for data. The effectiveness FDA method analyzed with set samples eight...
