Identifying Co‐Expressed lncRNAs Correlated With Traits of Interest in an Animal Model for Metabolic Diseases in Humans

Nutrigenomics investigates how nutrients modulate gene expression. Among them, fatty acids (FA) play important roles in regulating gene transcription, while long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may be associated with gene regulation and metabolic diseases. This study aimed to analyze t...

Improving interpretability and applicability of welfare management decisions in dairy cows through explainable artificial intelligence

Abstract Background Improving animal welfare and health is a key objective in modern dairy systems. However, translating routinely available dairy herd improvement records into transparent and actionable welfare-related decisions remains challenging, particularly when using compl...

Effects of Replacing Concentrate Feed with Carob (Ceratonia siliqua) Pods on Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, Meat Quality, and Rumen Fermentation in Assaf Lambs

This study examined the effects of replacing 25% (P25) or 50% (P50) of concentrate dry matter (DM) with sun-dried carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) pods on growth performance, apparent nutrient digestibility, carcass traits, meat quality, serum biochemistry, and rumen microbiology in...
