Relationship between beta lactoglobulin and subclinical mastitis in Valle del Belice sheep breed
2010
The objective of the following research was to determine the effect of LGB genotypes on subclinical mastitis in Valle del Belice dairy sheep. Ewes were classified as affected or not by subclinical mastitis within a lactation based on i) a positive culture in one of the test-days and ii) more than 750,000 somatic cells. Generalized linear mixed models were fitted to assess the significance of LGB genotypes on MTB and MTC. The LGB genotypes significantly affected MTB (p=0.0387), and showed a tendency on MTC (p=0.1104). Least square means showed that in the analysis for MTB, individuals with genotypes BB and AB had a higher frequency of subclinical mastitis. Moreover, the least square differen…
Effect of somatic cell count level on functional longevity in Valle del Belice dairy sheep assessed using survival analysis.
2009
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of somatic cell count (SCC) on functional longevity and to estimate the heritability of functional longevity using survival analysis in Valle del Belice dairy sheep. A total of 4,880 lactations of 2,190 ewes from 11 flocks were used. In this study, SCC was considered as an indication of subclinical mastitis. In case of clinical cases, identified by the technicians at milking time, test-day weights and milk samples of those ewes were not considered. Somatic cells were analyzed as counts, without any transformation, and were grouped in 3 classes based on the observed SCC maximum (mxSCC). The mxSCC classes, expressed as 103 cells/mL, wer…
Time-to-event analysis of mastitis at first-lactation in Valle del Belice ewes
2007
A time-to-event study for mastitis at first-lactation in Valle del Belice ewes was conducted, using survival analysis with an animal model. The goals were to evaluate the effect of lambing season and level of milk production on the time from lambing to the day when a ewe experienced a test-day with a recorded SCC greater than or equal to 750,000 cells/ml, and to estimate, for this trait, its heritability and the percentage of variation explained by the flock-year of lambing effect. A dataset with 2468 first-lactation records, collected from 1998 to 2003 in Valle del Belice ewes allocated in 17 flocks, was used. The Cox model used included lambing season and total milk yield adjusted for lac…

Strategie formative sui medici potenziali prescrittori per il corretto uso dei test genomici: l'esperienza italiana
2013
Pressioni del mercato, politiche regolatorie, linee guida cliniche e domanda dei consumatori, sono tutti fattori che influiscono sulla conoscenza degli erogatori dell’assistenza sanitaria e sull'uso dei test genetici venduti e/o pubblicizzati direttamente ai consumatori. Obiettivo è presentare un innovativo programma pilota di istruzione e formazione sul corretto uso dei test genomici, dedicato ai potenziali prescrittori, nell'ambito di un progetto finanziato dal Centro Nazionale per il Controllo delle Malattie del Ministero della Salute. Un gruppo di esperti, rappresentanti delle sei regioni coinvolte nel progetto, ha definito i contenuti di un corso modulare concepito per essere somminist…

Data from: Low but contrasting neutral genetic differentiation shaped by winter temperature in European great tits
2015
Gene flow is usually thought to reduce genetic divergence and impede local adaptation by homogenising gene pools between populations. However, evidence for local adaptation and phenotypic differentiation in highly mobile species, experiencing high levels of gene flow, is emerging. Assessing population genetic structure at different spatial scales is thus a crucial step towards understanding mechanisms underlying intraspecific differentiation and diversification. Here, we studied the population genetic structure of a highly mobile species – the great tit Parus major – at different spatial scales. We analysed 884 individuals from 30 sites across Europe including 10 close-by sites (< 50 km)…
