Project description:In this study, we use mRNA-Seq to characterize and compare the leukocyte transcriptomes of Holstein, Jersey, and Cholistani with respect to variations in sequence, expression, and splicing. Poly A+ RNA are extracted from leukocytes of pools of blood drawn from cows of three different breeds, Holstein, Jersey, and Cholistani. The objective of the study is to compare sequence variation and gene expression of the three cattle breeds.
Project description:The objective of this study was to characterize the mRNA expression profile in rumen epithelium from Holstein dairy cows fed high or low concentrate dits.
Project description:We investigated changes in rumen fermentation, peripheral blood metabolites and hormones, and hepatic transcriptomic dynamics in Holstein cows with and those without subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) during the periparturient period.
