Open DOI
Genomic architecture of non-nominal offspring risk in a simulated composite cattle breed
Background: Composite cattle breeds are designed to combine complementary attributes from different founder breeds while retaining part of the heterosis generated by crossbreeding. Brangus cattle are nominally defined as 5/8 Angus and 3/...

Open DOI
Integrating longitudinal metabolite profiles improves phenotype prediction in pigs in a trait- and timepoint-dependent manner
Background: Accurate prediction of phenotypes is essential for assessing the actual productive performance of individual pigs, particularly for traits that are costly or difficult to measure directly. This study investigated the potentia...

Open DOI
Cellular mechanism of gain-of-function mutation I173M in sheep MC4R gene identified in year-round and seasonal estrus breeds through whole-genome resequencing
Background: Investigating key genes regulating year-round estrus can improve sheep reproductive performance and industry efficiency. Although several candidate genes have been proposed, the key regulators underlying estrus seasonality re...

DOI 10.1186/s12711-026-01089-y
Open DOI
Correction: Genetic parameters via predictivity in large populations under strong genomic selection
05
DOI 10.1186/s12711-026-01085-2
Open DOI
The rate and spectrum of germline mutations in chicken from a commercial pedigree line
Background: Pedigree-based studies of germline mutations provide a direct understanding of the origin and consequences of genetic variation, and allow quantification of how mutations affect functional variation. Here, we use whole-genome...
06
DOI 10.1186/s12711-026-01090-5
Open DOI
Quantifying genetic load through joint modelling of inbreeding depression and inbreeding load for litter size in rabbits
Background: Genetic load, defined as the burden of deleterious variants carried by a population, has two components: a realized one that is expressed as reduced fitness, and a hidden one that is masked in heterozygotes. The hidden compon...

Open DOI
National genomic evaluation for a novel functional longevity trait
Background: Cow longevity plays a major role in beef cattle industry profitability, reflecting the female’s ability to remain productive in the herd. In this context, longitudinal models as random regression models (RRM) are the preferre...

Open DOI
Genetic parameters and pedigree–based selective breeding outcomes for productivity traits in industrial black soldier fly (hermetia illucens L.) production systems
Background: Selective breeding in mass-reared insects has progressed rapidly in recent years, and the black soldier fly ( Hermetia illucens L. - Diptera: Stratiomyidae), the most widely cultivated insect species for animal feed, is emerg...

DOI 10.1186/s12711-026-01084-3
Open DOI
A note on a generalized single step theory for any number of hierarchical genomic matrices
Background: The Single Step algorithm allows combining information from genotyped and un-genotyped individuals, provided they are connected by a pedigree. However, current single step theory is limited to a single list of markers. Result...

DOI 10.1186/s12711-026-01086-1
Open DOI
The genetic relationships between different definitions of emissions outputs and feedlot production traits
Background: Selective breeding is a potential strategy for reducing methane (CH 4 ) emissions in ruminants. In Australian beef cattle, large scale emission recording is currently being conducted using GreenFeed Emission Monitors (C-Lock ...
