Runs of homozygosity in the Italian goat breeds: impact of management practices in low-input systems
2021
Abstract Background Climate and farming systems, several of which are considered as low-input agricultural systems, vary between goat populations from Northern and Southern Italy and have led to different management practices. These processes have impacted genome shaping in terms of inbreeding and regions under selection and resulted in differences between the northern and southern populations. Both inbreeding and signatures of selection can be pinpointed by the analysis of runs of homozygosity (ROH), which provides useful information to assist the management of this species in different rural areas. Results We analyzed the ROH distribution and inbreeding (FROH) in 902 goats from the Italia…
Développement territorial et développement agricole durable
2012
L'objectif de la communication est de montrer comment au travers d'une approche pluri-disciplinaire, l'ancrage territorial de l'agriculture est une clé de compréhension de la durabilité de l'agriculture de territoires mixtes, périurbains ou ruraux-touristiques. La dimension socio-spatiale qu'introduit cet angle d'analyse conduit à rapprocher géographie et agroéconomie au sein d'une démarche qui vise à modéliser la complexité et la multi-dimensionnalité du développement agricole. Cette approche est appliquée à un territoire dominé à la fois par l'agriculture et le développement touristique, situé en Corse (Balagne). L'agriculture, entre pression foncière et valorisation touristique du patrim…
The Use of Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis to Trace European Sea Bass (D. labrax) Originating from Different Farming Systems
2020
This study aimed to determine whether isotopic ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) can discriminate farmed European sea bass according to different farming systems and geographic origins. Dicentrarchus labrax of commercial size from three different rearing systems (concrete tank inland, sea cages, and extensive methods in valleys or salt works) were collected at the trading period (autumn&ndash
