We investigated antimicrobial resistance-related genes in 109 isolates of Trueperella pyogenes that were isolated in cattle and pigs. All 89 tetracycline-resistant T. pyogenes isolates carried the resistance gene harbored either tetW, tetM, tetA(33), tetK, or tetL. The ermX or ermB were detected in 18 of 23 erythromycin-resistant isolates. Streptomycin-resistant aadA1, aadA9, aadA11, aadA24, strA, or strB were detected in 25 of 83 isolates. There were significant differences in the percentages of tetA(33), ermB, aadA1, aadA9, aadA11, or aadA24 carriage between cattle and pig isolates. In addition, the Class 1 gene cassette was detected only in 17 cattle isolates. This suggests that T. pyogenes isolates acquire resistance gene in each environment of cattle and pigs, and that the transmission of the bacteria between cattle and pigs is limited.

The livestock sector is a major source of non-CO greenhouse gas (GHG). As China has the world's largest livestock production, analyzing factors influencing GHG emission intensity of livestock (GEIL) is crucial for guiding its emission reduction policies. Yet, most current studies on livestock GHG focus on emission amount (GEAL) over GEIL, neglecting comprehensive utilization of spatial econometric models.

The potential association of milk with childhood obesity has been widely debated and researched. Milk is known to contain many bioactive compounds as well as bovine exosomes rich in micro-RNA (miR) that can have effects on various cells, including stem cells. Among them, adipose stem cells (ASC) are particularly interesting due to their role in adipose tissue growth and, thus, obesity.

(sage oil) when used as a sensory additive in feed and in water for drinking for all animal species. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that sage oil is considered safe up to the maximum proposed use levels in complete feed of 20 mg/kg for ornamental fish.

Background: Trends in the development of genetic markers for the purposes of genomic and marker-assisted selection primarily focus on identifying causative polymorphisms. Using these polymorphisms as markers enables a more accurate association between genotype and phenotype. Bioinformatic analysis allows calculating the impact of missense polymorphisms on the structural and functional characteristics of proteins, which makes it promising for identifying causative polymorphisms.
