The development of next-generation sequencing technologies enables rapid generation of large amounts of genome sequences. Next-generation sequencing was utilised to perform whole genome sequencing of two Phasianidae, common quail (Coturnix coturnix) and grey partridge (Perdix perdix). Sequence data corresponding to 8 to 9 fold coverage of the genomes of the two species were obtained. The amount of sequence data enabled generation of a rough de novo genome assembly suitable for either the identification of the sequence of specific genes or for use in comparative studies with other birds, such as chicken and turkey. Likewise, it was possible to identify numerous SNPs and microsatellites for use in other studies. |

This project aims at understanding the effect of different farming systems on the genetic diversity of common agricultural species. It is well known that organic farming generally improves the biodiversity and abundance of species in the agricultural landscape (Hole et al., 2005). A reduction in species number and abundance has been shown as a result of the intensification of farming suggesting a relationship between farming intensity and species abundance (e.g. Stoate et al., 2001). Anyway, none of the studies that investigated the effects of pesticides presence and farming intensity has investigated the effect on the genetic diversity and isolation of the populations. It has been shown that, despite the theoretical expectations, also very abundant... |

Stature is affected by many polymorphisms of small effect in humans1. In contrast, variation in dogs, even within breeds, has been suggested to be largely due to variants in a small number of genes2,3. Here we use data from cattle to compare the genetic architecture of stature to those in humans and dogs. We conducted a meta-analysis for stature using 58,265 cattle from 17 populations with 25.4 million imputed whole-genome sequence variants. Results showed that the genetic architecture of stature in cattle is similar to that in humans, as the lead variants in 163 significantly associated genomic regions (P < 5 × 10−8) explained at most 13.8% of the phenotypic variance. Most of these variants were noncoding, including variants that were also expression... |
