the aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters of age at first calving and its relationship with productive traits of holstein dairy cows. a total of 24491 first lactation records (2x 305d) which were collected from 1995 to 2009 were used. the general linear model (glm) procedure was applied to determine effective factors on studied traits. herd-year-season (hys) and age at first calv...

The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence and heritability of elbow dysplasia in the Estrela mountain dog breed, to investigate genetic trends over the last 20 years (1990–2009) and to evaluate the association of individual records with breeding values. The elbows of 351 Estrela mountain dogs were examined using the flexed mediolateral radiographic view and evaluated using the Int...

With increased availability of genetic testing, particularly expanded carrier screening (ECS) and hereditary cancer (HC) the scope conditions for which PGT-M is performed expanding. Our aim was to report on indications from past decade in our large academic practice. All cases occurring between January 2010 April 2021 were reviewed. A total 331 patients identified 124 different genes over 582 c...

Over the past decades, a growing interest in allelopathy has been recorded due to effective use of allelochemicals as growth regulators, bioherbicides, insecticides, and antimicrobial crop protection sustainable agriculture field. So far, genetic aspects allelopathic effects have poorly studied, identification genes and/or genomic regions (QTLs) become challenge implement specific breeding prog...
