Sheep coccidiosis, caused by Eimeria spp., is widely studied for inducing diarrhea, but its impact on mutton quality remains poorly understood. Here, we systematically investigated the effects of Eimeria infection on meat quality and the interventing role of Clostridium butyri...

This study investigated the effects of dietary 0.10% chlorogenic acid supplementation on the meat quality and metabolic profile of Shaziling pigs. Longissimus dorsi muscle samples were collected and analyzed using untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) in both positive and neg...

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effects of natural forage from different regions (saline-alkali and non-saline-alkali areas) on the rumen microbiota, muscle metabolites, and meat quality of Tibetan sheep. 

Methods: Targeted and non-targeted metabolomics were used to c...

BACKGROUND: Chicken meat has become a major source of protein for human consumption. However, the quality of the meat is not yet under control, especially since pH values that are too low or too high are often observed. In an attempt to get a better understanding of the genetic a...

This study aims to investigate the potential regulatory network responsible for the meat quality using multi-omics to help developing better varieties. Slaughter performance and meat quality of Shuxing No.1 rabbit outperformed Yila rabbit. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially ...

This study investigated age-associated changes in the gut-muscle axis and their potential contribution to meat quality in Tan sheep (Ovis aries). Twelve Tan sheep were divided into two age groups, including six 3-month-old animals (T3) and six 6-month-old animals (T6). Untargeted LC-MS metabolomi...

Slaughter performance and meat quality of Shuxing No.1 rabbit outperformed Yila rabbit. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially ...

Background:

Glycolytic potential (GP) is an important index for evaluating meat quality in the pig industry, since high muscle glycogen content generally leads to rapid postmortem glycolysis, which contributes to low meat quality. However, there are few researches to elucidate the genetic mechanisms underlie...
