The paper creates a high-resolution cattle regulatory variant atlas and identifies cross-species activity in human cells, highlighting both conservation and species-specific effects.

This study identifies human functional variants with conserved effects in livestock species, showing their utility for understanding disease mechanisms.

The paper identifies a genetic locus associated with tolerance to Theileria parva infection in cattle, showing a strong heritability and replication across cohorts.

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze host response to ISAV in Atlantic salmon cells, revealing transcriptional changes and potential host-virus interactions.

The paper uses a CRISPR/Cas9 screen to identify type I interferon-stimulated genes that regulate Toxoplasma gondii infection in macrophages.

The paper profiles open chromatin in developing pig muscle to identify regulatory regions and provides a resource for genome regulation studies and variant filtering in pig breeding.

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to show that CD16- monocytes are key in the transcriptional response of human monocytes to Toxoplasma infection, revealing transcriptional heterogeneity and cytokine secretion patterns.
