Quantifying genetic load through joint modelling of inbreeding depression and inbreeding load for litter size in rabbits

Abstract Background Genetic load, defined as the burden of deleterious variants carried by a population, has two components: a realized one that is expressed as reduced fitness, and a hidden one that is masked in heterozygotes. The hidden component, arising from recessive (or par...

Digital Game-Based Learning in Primary Education: A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial on Knowledge, Skills, and Motivation

Abstract Digital technologies are increasingly integrated into primary education, yet evidence remains limited regarding how digital game-based learning (DGBL) affects the relationships among musical knowledge acquisition, aural skills development, and classroom motivation. To ad...

Laboratory-Specific Comparison of KASP and a Locally Implemented Gel-Based T-ARMS PCR Workflow for Targeted CSN2 Codon-67 Genotyping in a Holstein–Friesian Panel

Targeted CSN2 codon-67 genotyping supports A2-oriented breeding and herd management. We compared Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) with a locally implemented gel-based tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system PCR (T-ARMS PCR) workflow in a balanced, non-populati...

The Necessity and Feasibility of Implementing Regenerative Practices in Pasture-Based Beef Cattle Farming

This review analyzes sustainable and regenerative development in the beef production chain, focusing on environmental impacts and pasture-based cattle farming. Livestock emissions account for about 14.5% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gases, with beef cattle contributing 3–3....
