SHORT COMMUNICATION: PREVALENCE OF DELETERIOUS VARIANTS CAUSING RECESSIVE DISORDERS IN ITALIAN CHIANINA, MARCHIGIANA AND ROMAGNOLA CATTLE

Short communication: Prevalence of deleterious variants causing recessive disorders in Italian Chianina, Marchigiana and Romagnola cattle

In the last two decades, the molecular cause of six monogenic autosomal recessive disorders has been identified in native Italian beef cattle: two different ATP2A1 variants for the pseudomyotonia congenita, the first in Chianina and Romagnola (PMT1) and the second in Romagnola (PMT2); a KDM2B variant for the paunch calf syndrome (PCS) in Marchigian

Effects of garlic (Allium sativum) on growth indices and survival rate, some blood biochemical parameters and digestive enzymes of zebrafish (Danio rerio)

The aims of the present study were to Cutting Tips investigate the effects of garlic at four levels including 0 (T0), 0.10 (T1), 0.15 (T2) and 0.20 (T3) gram of garlic essential oil per kilogram of diet on growth indices and survival rate, some blood biochemical parameters and digestive enzymes of zebrafish (Danio rerio).The larvae were fed from th
