Polymorphisms within the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)-2, -4, and -6 Genes in Cattle (2009)
Marco Mariotti, John L. Williams, Susana Dunner, Alessio Valentini, Lorraine Pariset
In mammals, members of the TLR gene family play a primary role in the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns from bacteria, viruses, protozoa and fungi. Recently, cattle TLR genes have...
Evaluation of suitable reference genes for gene expression studies in bovine muscular tissue (2008)
Pérez, Raquel, Tupac-Yupanqui, Isabel, Dunner, Susana
Abstract Background Real-time reverse transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (real-time RTqPCR) is a technique used to measure mRNA species copy number as a way to determine key genes...
Characterization of 37 Breed-Specific Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Sheep (2006)
Pariset, Lorraine, Cappuccio, Irene, Ajmone-Marsan, Paolo, Bruford, Michael, Dunner, Susana, Cortes, Oscar, ...
We identified 37 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in sheep and screened 16 individuals from 8 different sheep breeds selected throughout Europe. Population genetic measures based on the...

Haplotype diversity of the myostatingene among beef cattle breeds (2003)
Dunner, Susana, Miranda, M Eugenia, Amigues, Yves, Cañón, Javier, Georges, Michel, Hanset, Roger, ...
Abstract A total of 678 individuals from 28 European bovine breeds were both phenotyped and analysed at the myostatin locus by the Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) method. Seven new...
Wiener, Pamela, Burton, David, Ajmone-Marsan, Paolo, Dunner, Susana, Valentini, Alessio, Williams, John
This paper explores patterns of genetic diversity near a locus known to have been under selection. The myostatin gene (GDF-8) has been shown to be associated with double muscling, a phenotype...
Genetic diversity measures of local European beef cattle breeds for conservation purposes (2001)
Cañón, Javier, Alexandrino, Paolo, Bessa, Isabel, Carleos, Carlos, Carretero, Yolanda, Dunner, Susana, ...
Abstract This study was undertaken to determine the genetic structure, evolutionary relationships, and the genetic diversity among 18 local cattle breeds from Spain, Portugal, and France using 16...
