Genetic characterisation of the Connemara pony and the Warmblood horse using a within-breed clustering approach (2023)
Journal Article
Lindsay-McGee, V., Sanchez-Molano, E., Banos, G., Clark, E., Piercy, R., & Psifidi, A. (2023). Genetic characterisation of the Connemara pony and the Warmblood horse using a within-breed clustering approach. Genetics Selection Evolution, 55(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12711-023-00827-w

BackgroundThe Connemara pony (CP) is an Irish breed that has experienced varied selection by breeders over the last fifty years, with objectives ranging from the traditional hardy pony to an agile athlete. We compared these ponies with well-studied W... Read More about Genetic characterisation of the Connemara pony and the Warmblood horse using a within-breed clustering approach.

Single-step genome-wide association analyses of claw horn lesions in Holstein cattle using linear and threshold models (2023)
Journal Article
Li, B., Barden, M., Kapsona, V., Sanchez-Molano, E., Anagnostopoulos, A., Griffiths, B., Bedford, C., Dai, X., Coffey, M., Psifidi, A., Oikonomou, G., & Banos, G. (2023). Single-step genome-wide association analyses of claw horn lesions in Holstein cattle using linear and threshold models. Genetics Selection Evolution, 55(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12711-023-00784-4

BackgroundLameness in dairy cattle is primarily caused by foot lesions including the claw horn lesions (CHL) of sole haemorrhage (SH), sole ulcers (SU), and white line disease (WL). This study investigated the genetic architecture of the three CHL ba...

Serum 1H nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics of sole lesion development in Holstein cows (2023)
Journal Article
Barden, M., Phelan, M., Hyde, R., Anagnostopoulos, A., Griffiths, B., Bedford, C., Green, M., Psifidi, A., Banos, G., & Oikonomou, G. (2023). Serum 1H nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics of sole lesion development in Holstein cows. Journal of Dairy Science, 106(4), 2667-2684. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2022-22681

those with the strongest evidence of being associated with sole lesions corresponded to phenylalanine and 4 unlabeled metabolites. We conclude that the serum metabolome, as characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, does not app...
