The effects of different doses of compound enzyme preparations on the production performance, meat quality and rumen microorganisms of yak were studied by metagenomics and transcriptomics.

Yak () is a large ruminant endemic to the Tibetan plateau. The addition of enzyme complexes to feed can significantly improve their growth performance. Therefore, studying the effects of ruminant compound enzyme preparations dosage on yak rumen microorganisms and production performance is crucial to promoting the development of the yak industry.

[Comparison of different single cell whole genome amplification methods and MALBAC applications in assisted reproduction].

Single-cell whole genome amplification (WGA) is a new technology, which can amplify small amounts of DNA from single cell and obtain the high coverage whole genome DNA template for revealing cell heterogeneity. Single cell WGA methods mainly include primer extension preamplification PCR (PEP-PCR), degenerate oligonucleotide primed PCR (DOP-PCR), multiple displacement amplification (MDA), and multiple annealing and looping-based amplification cycles (MALBAC). In this review, we describe the principles and applications of different single cell genome wide amplification, and we evaluate and compare their amplification efficiency, including the coverage of genome, homogeneity, reproducibility, and detection power of single-nucleotide variants (SNV) and copy number variants (CNV).
