Global trends and research frontiers on machine learning in sustainable animal production in times of climate change: Bibliometric analysis aimed at insights and orientations for t... by Robson Mateus Freitas Silveira, Concepta Mcmanus, Iran José Oliveira da Siva

“…The main insights generated in the bibliometric analysis were (i) sustainable animal production changed from unidisciplinary science to multidisciplinary science linked to agricultural, environmental and engineering sciences, mainly to genetics and computing; (ii) the concept of sustainable animal production emerged from animal welfare and climate change concepts found in UN's 2030 Agenda; (iii) omics sciences, greenhouse gases, energy efficiency and animal welfare are the main keywords for bibliometric analyses in future studies related to sustainable animal production in the coming centuries; (iii) prediction and classification analyses, i.e., supervised machine learning models used as main tools in animal production; (iv) residual feed intake applied to measure sustainable feed efficiency in animal farming in the past and nowadays; and (v) The United States, China, Brazil and Australia are the main countries publishing studies on sustainability in animal production, but only China has been gaining prominence in publications in this field, in recent years, and it will turn this country into an emerging leader in future publications on this topic. …”

Characterization of the genomic landscape of canine diffuse large B-cell lymphoma reveals recurrent H3K27M mutations linked to progression-free survival by Anna Darlene van der Heiden, Raphaela Pensch, Sophie Agger, Heather L. Gardner, William Hendricks, Victoria Zismann, Shukmei Wong, Natalia Briones, Bryce Turner, Karin Forsberg-Nilsson, Cheryl London, Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, Maja Louise Arendt

“…Furthermore, many of these studies lack sufficient clinical follow-up data, making it difficult to draw meaningful associations between genetic variants and patient outcomes. Our study aimed to characterize the mutational landscape of cDLBCL using whole-genome sequencing of matched tumor-normal samples obtained from a cohort of 43 dogs previously enrolled in a clinical trial for which longitudinal follow-up was available. …”

Endosperm culture-based allotriploid hybrid production from an interspecific cross of Haemanthus spp.: new insights into polyploidization and hybridization by Arisa Nakano, Masahiro Mii, Yoichiro Hoshino

“…Conclusions This study is the first to demonstrate the production of allotriploid hybrid plants through endosperm culture using seeds from interspecific crosses, as supported by cellular and genetic analyses. Additionally, the study established a novel system for simultaneously producing diploid and allotriploid hybrids from a single seed, providing valuable materials to study the effects of polyploidization and hybridization in allopolyploid plants. …”
