Harvest time effect on quantitative and qualitative parameters of forage maize
(The Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences, 2021)
Maize silage is source of palatable and high-energy forage for ruminants. Therefore, production of high quality forage
maize represents an essential strategy for stable production of milk and meat on livestock farms. This ...
MODERN CATTLE BREEDING AND CLIMATE CHANGE-CHALLENGES AND RESPONSES
(Faculty of Agriculture and Food Sciences, university of Sarajevo, 12-2022)
According to the reports of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), in anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, animal husbandry participates with 14.5% (translated into CO2 equivalent, about 7.1 Gt), which ...
Quality of eggs from pasture rearing layers of different genotypes
(Institute for Animal Husbandry, Belgrade, 2020)
The comparison of physical quality properties of table eggs of commercial hybrid Tetra SL and two native indigenous breeds of hens, Banat Naked Neck and Svrljig hen, was performed in conditions of alternative production ...
Sowing and fertilization strategies to improve maize productivity
(Istituto Sperimentale per la Cerealicoltura Sezione di Bergamo, 2020)
Field experiment was conducted to examine the impacts of two sowing dates (8 April - first date of sowing and
21 April - second date of sowing) and four nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg ha-1) on the productivity of ...
Whole-genome sequencing of European autochthonous and commercial pig breeds allows the detection of signatures of selection for adaptation of genetic resources to different breeding and production systems
(BMC Publishing, 2020)
Background: Natural and artificial directional selection in cosmopolitan and autochthonous pig breeds and wild boars have shaped their genomes and resulted in a reservoir of animal genetic diversity. Signatures of selection ...
Fungal contamination of pig farm feeds
(Biotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2021)
The aim of this study was to establish the total fungal (mould)
count in 79 commercial pig farm feed samples (42 samples for piglets, 29 samples
for fattening pigs and 8 samples for sows) collected from the Serbian feed ...
Genome-wide detection of copy number variants in European autochthonous and commercial pig breeds by whole-genome sequencing of DNA pools identified breed-characterising copy number states
(International Foundation for Animal Genetics, 2020)
In this study, we identified copy number variants (CNVs) in 19 European autochthonous pig
breeds and in two commercial breeds (Italian Large White and Italian Duroc) that represent
important genetic resources for this ...
Runs of homozygosity provide a genome landscape picture of inbreeding and genetic history of European autochthonous and commercial pig breeds
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 04-2021)
ROHs are long stretches of DNA homozygous at each polymorphic position. The proportion of
genome covered by ROHs and their length are indicators of the level and origin of inbreeding.
Frequent common ROHs within the same ...
Energy metabolism indicators and body condition in peripartal period of Alpine goats
(SIVAR (Italian Society of Farm Animals Veterinary Practitioners), 2020)
The investigation was performed on two groups of primiparous and multiparous healthy dewormed Alpine dairy goats (25 each) during peripartal period. Blood samples were collected (jugular venipuncture) 10-15 days before and ...
Influence of birth type on body weight of lambs from birth to weaning in various strains of sheep Pramenka
(Serbian Genetic Society, 2022)
The dynamics of increasing of bodyweight of lambs is conditioned by genetic factors, environmental factors and their interaction. The aim of this work was study variability of bodyweight of lambs related to type of birth ...
