Abstract Biomphalaria snails are instrumental in transmission of the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni . With World Health Organization's goal to eliminate schistosomiasis as a global health problem by 2025, there is now renewed emphasis on snail control. Here, we characterize genome glabrata, lophotrochozoan protostome, and provide timely important information biology. We describe aspects phero-perception, stress responses, immune function regulation gene expression that support...
Sports efficiency in activities which strength and speed are the determining factors has been associated to ACTN3 gene, is responsible for expression of α-actinin-3. Soccer a mainly aerobic sport because its long duration, but acute actions that define game demand lot speed. The purpose present study was compare performance capacity soccer players with different genotype groups (XX, RX, RR) strength, speed, endurance tests. Two hundred professional Brazilian first division teams participated...
Genetic diversity and population studies are essential for conservation wildlife management programs. However, monitoring requires the analysis of multiple loci from many samples. These processes can be laborious expensive. The choice microsatellites PCR calibration genotyping particularly daunting. Here we optimized a low-cost method using microsatellite simultaneous up to 384 samples next-generation sequencing (NGS). We designed primers with adapters combinatorial barcoding amplicon...
Temperament is fundamental to animal production due its direct influence on the animal-herdsman relationship. When compared calm animals, aggressive, anxious or fearful ones exhibit less weight gain, lower reproductive efficiency, decreased milk and higher herd maintenance costs, all of which contribute reduced profits. However, temperament a trait that complex difficult assess. Recently, new quantitative system, REATEST®, for assessing reactivity, phenotype temperament, was developed....
Abstract The aim was to investigate a possible role of the ACTN3 R577X polymorphism in Brazilian football player’s career progression. 2 questions were formulated: 1. Does affect probability an individual being professional player? 2. this progression athlete throughout his career? study included 353 players from first division clubs following categories: under-14 (U-14), U-15, U-17, U-20, and (PRO). control group (CON) composed 100 healthy non-athletes. chi-squared test used assess...
Coelho, DB, Pimenta, EM, Rosse, IC, Veneroso, C, Pussieldi, GDA, Becker, LK, De Oliveira, EC, Carvalho, MRS, and Silami-Garcia, E. Alpha-actinin-3 R577X polymorphism influences muscle damage hormonal responses after a soccer game. J Strength Cond Res 33(10): 2655-2664, 2019-The purpose of this study was to evaluate indicators matches its relation alpha-actinin-3 (ACTN3) gene expression (XX vs. RR/RX), considering that the R allele produces provides greater strength power. Thirty players (10...
The Brazilian Guzerá population originated from a few founders introduced India. These animals adapted well to the harsh environments in Brazil, were selected for beef, milk, or dual-purpose (beef and milk), extensively used produce crossbred animals. Here, impact of these historical events with regard structure genetic diversity meta-population was evaluated. DNA samples 744 (one dairy, nine dual-purpose, five beef herds) genotyped 21 microsatellite loci. Ho, He, PIC, Fis, Fit, Fst...
This study aimed to analyze the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-I/D) allelic and genotypic frequencies in Brazilian soccer players of different ages. The group comprised 353 from first-division clubs under (U)-14, U-15, U-17, U-20, professional categories. did not differ significantly any categories between control group. was first ACE-I/D polymorphism players.
Abstract Fish stocking programs have been implemented to mitigate the blockage of original riverbeds by construction hydropower dams, which affects natural migration fish populations. However, this method raises concerns regarding genetic rescue populations migratory species. We investigated spatial distribution properties, such as diversity, population structure, and gene flow (migration), Neotropical Prochilodus costatus in Três Marias dam São Francisco River basin, Brazil, examined...
Kappa-casein (κ-casein) is one of the most abundant milk proteins.Its main function to avoid aggregation casein micelles, keeping them, and therefore calcium phosphate, in pockets solution.In bovines, a κ-casein functional polymorphism has been associated with fat, calcium, protein contents faster curd contraction cheese production.Quicker reduces loss solids, enhancing yield.This induces double amino acid substitution (Thr136Ile Ala148Asp).The normally detected by PCR-RFLP, which laborious...
Abstract Individual variation in milk fatty acid (FA) composition has been partially attributed to stearoyl‐CoA desaturase 1 ( SCD1 ) gene polymorphisms taurine breeds, but much less is known for Zebu breeds. This study investigated the phenotypic FA composition, and influence of variants on this trait fat indices (DI) Gir cows. The functional impact was predicted using bioinformatics tools. Milk blood samples were collected from 312 cows distributed 10 herds five states Brazil. identified...
Wickerhamomyces anomalus LBCM1105 is a yeast isolated from cachaça distillery fermentation vats, notable for exceptional glycerol consumption ability. We report its draft genome with 20.5x in-depth coverage and around 90% extension completeness. It harbors the sequences of proteins involved in transport metabolism.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution ACE-I/D polymorphisms on Brazilian football players performance in aerobic capacity, strength and speed tests.The participants were 212 first division male genotyped DD, ID or II. Genotyping DNA from leucocytes performed using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism methods. We evaluated a 30-meter sprint test with measured at 10 meters (V10), 20 (V20), 30 (V30); muscular counter-movement-jump squat jump tests;...
Wistar Audiogenic Rat is an epilepsy model whose animals are predisposed to develop seizures induced by acoustic stimulation. This was developed selective reproduction and presents a consistent genetic profile due the several generations of inbreeding. In this study, we performed analysis WAR RNA-Seq data, aiming identified at variants that may be involved in epileptic phenotype. Seventeen thousand eighty-five predicted were as unique model, which 15,915 SNPs 1,170 INDELs. We filter...
