Acetate, a metabolic product of Heligmosomoides polygyrus, facilitates intestinal epithelial barrier breakdown in a FFAR2-dependent manner

Nicola Harris, Mario Michael Zaiss, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Luc Xavier Marie Lebon

Approximately 2 billion people worldwide and a significant part of the domestic livestock are infected with soil-transmitted helminths, of which many establish chronic infections causing substantial eco-nomic and welfare burdens. Beside intensive research ...

Wind-tunnel experimental studies of the spatial snow distribution over grass and bush surfaces

Guang Li

The snow is one of the most important water resources in grassland in northern and western China, while the wind blowing snow due to the strong wind there is a common phenomenon, which can lead to heavy disasters to harm the local animal husbandry and tran ...

The Quest for Genes Involved in Adaptation to Climate Change in Ruminant Livestock

Stéphane Joost, Elia Vajana

Simple Summary:& nbsp;After domestication in specific regions, livestock followed human migrations and colonized the whole world. During this population expansion, human and natural selection, together with demographic events, molded the livestock genome l ...

Biogeoinformatics for the management of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR)

Solange Catherine Gaillard

In the context of both severe selection in farm animals and potential effects of climate change, it is crucial to implement a sustainable management of the breeding practice, supported by a judicious use of geographic information technologies. Based on thi ...

Genome-wide SNP profiling of worldwide goat populations reveals strong partitioning of diversity and highlights post-domestication migration routes

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat, Elia Vajana

Background: Goat populations that are characterized within the AdaptMap project cover a large part of the worldwide distribution of this species and provide the opportunity to assess their diversity at a global scale. We analysed genome-wide 50K single nuc ...

Integrating models across temporal and spatial scales to simulate landscape patterns and dynamics in mountain pasture-woodlands

Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer

Context Pasture-woodlands are semi-natural landscapes that result from the combined influences of climate, management, and intrinsic vegetation dynamics. These landscapes are sensitive to future changes in land use and climate, but our ability to predict t ...

Simple rules for an efficient use of Geographic Information Systems in molecular ecology

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat, Kevin Leempoel, Ivo Widmer

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are becoming increasingly popular in the context of molecular ecology and conservation biology thanks to their display options efficiency, flexibility and management of geodata. Indeed, spatial data for wildlife and liv ...

A WebGIS platform for the monitoring of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (GENMON)

Stéphane Joost, Giona Matasci, Ivo Widmer

Background In 2007, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) initiated the Global plan of action for Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR). The main goal of this plan is to reduce further loss of genetic diversity in farm animals, ...

Spatial dependence of genetic data related to human health and livestock disease resistance: a role for geography to support the One Health approach

Stéphane Joost

The spatial dependence of located health and/or genetic data can be used to detect clusters likely to reveal disease prevalence or signatures of adaptation associated with characteristics of the local environment (high temperatures, air or water pollution) ...
