[EN] The aim of this work was to study the influence of embryonic and maternal genotype of two lines of rabbits selected by growth rate (line R) and litter size at weaning (line A) on prenatal survival. Embryos were recovered ...
[EN] Sexual receptivity of rabbit does at insemination greatly influences fertility and is generally induced by hormones or techniques known as “biostimulation”. Searching for more sustainable farming systems, an original ...

[EN] Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and composition are key traits determining meat quality. A divergent selection experiment for IMF content in Longissimus thoracis et lumborum muscle was carried out during nine generations ...
[EN] Maternal genetic effects (MGE) could affect meat quality traits such as intramuscular fat (IMF) and its fatty acid composition. However, it has been scarcely studied, especially in rabbits. The objectives of the present ...

[ES] La selección divergente puede cambiar las frecuencias de los marcadores genéticos en direcciones opuestas, produciéndose frecuencias alélicas intermedias en estos marcadores cuando ambas líneas divergentes son ...
[EN] Intramuscular fat (IMF) is one of the main meat quality traits for breeding programs in livestock species. The main objective of this study was to identify genomic regions associated with IMF content comparing two ...
[EN] Simple Summary Intramuscular fat content improves the juiciness, tenderness, and flavor of meat, but it can also affect its nutritional quality. A divergent selection experiment for intramuscular fat content was ...

[EN] In order to explore the genetic variability of wool production and other quantitative traits, an 8-cohort divergent selection experiment for total fleece weight (TFW) was carried out in French Angora rabbits. Studies ...
[EN] A divergent selection experiment on intramuscular fat (IMF) content was carried out during nine generations in rabbits. The IMF content was successfully improved through generations. Besides, selection for IMF content ...
