Identifying the immunocompetence markers at weaning to predict long-term vaccine response and persistence in pigs

The paper identifies immunocompetence markers at weaning in pigs that predict long-term vaccine response and persistence to Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and Influenza A virus.

Host genetics and pre-vaccination blood transcriptome as determinants of vaccine-induced immunity to Influenza A virus in swine

This study identifies genetic loci and pre-vaccination transcriptomic signatures associated with immune response persistence to an Influenza A vaccine in pigs.

Genetic selection for residual feed intake impacts the functional redundancy of the gut microbiota in pigs during the growing-finishing period

The paper compares gut microbiota between pigs selected for low and high residual feed intake, finding higher functional redundancy in low RFI pigs using 16S rRNA sequencing.

Towards the quantitative characterization of piglets’ robustness to weaning: A modelling approach

This paper develops a dynamic model to quantify piglet robustness to weaning using body weight trajectories and haematological data, showing strong model fit and correlations with health indicators.
