The Genetic Architecture of Bovine Telomere Length in Early Life and Association With Animal Fitness (2019)
Journal Article
Ilska-Warner, J. J., Psifidi, A., Seeker, L. A., Wilbourn, R. V., Underwood, S. L., Fairlie, J., …Banos, G. (2019). The Genetic Architecture of Bovine Telomere Length in Early Life and Association With Animal Fitness. Frontiers in Genetics, 10, https://doi.org/10.3389/fgene.2019.01048

Health and survival are key goals for selective breeding in farm animals. Progress, however, is often limited by the low heritability of these animal fitness traits in addition to measurement difficulties. In this respect, relevant early-life biomark...

Genome reconstruction of a novel carbohydrate digesting bacterium from the chicken caecal microflora (2019)
Journal Article
Hinsu, A. T., Pandit, R. J., Patel, S. H., Psifidi, A., Tomley, F. M., Das, S. K., …Joshi, C. G. (2019). Genome reconstruction of a novel carbohydrate digesting bacterium from the chicken caecal microflora. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mgene.2019.01.002

The advent of metagenomics using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has led to the acquisition of unprecedented quantities of bacterial sequence data. One use for these data is the recovery of complete genomes of uncultivable, and thus uncharacterised,...
