Quantifying Key Parameters of Environmental Transmission and Age-Specific Susceptibility for Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP)

|
By Yuqi Gao, Piter Bijma, Nienke Hartemink

Abstract Paratuberculosis is a chronic disease in cows and other ruminants, caused by Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP). We developed an age-specific dose-response model and two environmental transmission models (Model A and B) to estimate key parameters based on previously published experiments for MAP in dairy cows.

The long-term effects of genomic selection: 2. Changes in allele frequencies of causal loci and new mutations

New Results doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.02.20.529287 Abstract Genomic selection has become the dominant tool for genetic improvement in livestock and plants. Therefore, its sustainability is essential for global food production. Selection changes the allelic architecture of traits to create genetic gain. It remains unknown whether the changes in allele architecture are different for genomic selection and whether they depend on the genetic architectures of traits.
