The progress of next generation sequencing technologies (NGS), in line with the drastic reduction of sequencing costs, has revolutionized human medicine and can add value to agribusiness. New sequencing technologies allow the study of complex biological samples, enabling the taxonomic and functional characterization of microbial communities that practically colonize all ecological niches.…
Next generation sequencing (NGS) methodologies are able to sequence thousands of fragments and generate information on millions of bases in a single run. These methods have revolutionized research in genomics, transcriptomics and metagenomics. Compared to the classic Sanger method, NGS has substantially greater performance and run time as well as lower price per base sequenced (Behjati1…
Brazil is one of the world's leading beef manufacturers and exporters. Among the breeds of beef cattle in the country, the Nelore shows greater relevance because of its remarkable production rates. These rates can be mainly attributed to the adaptability and resilience of this breed in tropical environments. Feed efficiency is an extremely important production trait, however, despite its …
The Brazilian cattle herd, second largest in the world, is mainly composed of Zebu breeds. Among the beef cattle, the Nellore breed has the greatest prominence due to its remarkable levels of productive and reproductive performance. Despite the high economic potential of beef cattle production, Brazilian competitiveness is based on low prices and product quality have not been prioritized.…
To remain competitive in the market of meat production, it is crucial that the Brazilian producer is aware of the criteria used by consumers for local and international markets. Some factors such as flavor, appearance, convenience and nutritional level have been prioritized by consumers, in addition to price. Brazil represents the second largest herd of cattle (first commercial), but des…
Feed efficiency is an extremely important production trait, however, despite its known moderate heritability, this trait has not being considered in genetic evaluation programs, because measurement is costly and occurs late in animal's life. Selection for more efficient animals may contribute to reductions in pasture area and pollutant production (methane and manure), despite allowing for…
Bovine respiratory disease is a major problem for the U.S. beef and dairy industry. Selection of BRD-resistant cattle is ultimately the most sustainable approach to reducing the incidence of disease, as resistant animals have improved animal welfare, decreased use of therapeutic antibiotics, have superior production efficiency, require less handling, and are ultimately more profitable. Re…
