Genetics of Animal Health and Disease in Livestock
Wood surface attributes can be established by examining its several different physical or chemical properties. Differences in the wood surfaces occur between the manufacturing and post-treatment processes as well. Understanding how their unique anisotropic molecular organization, chemical linkages, branching, and other molecular features govern micro- and macroscale accessibility is essential for coating and complex modification processes. It is therefore important for scientific as well as practical reasons to qualify and quantify the effects of wood surface treatments and modifications. Challenges still exist to fully understanding the effect of the numerous applied chemicals and the wide range of treatment processes on wood surfaces.

Deciphering the T Cell Response in SARS-CoV-2 Infection
COVID-19 is a recently emerged infectious disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. The immune system has a primary role in pathogen elimination and a rapid and effective response can limit disease severity. In this context, T cells play the major role in cell mediated adaptive immune response. The protective role of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells has been inferred from studies on patients who recovered from SARS and MERS and accumulating data are now showing their relevance in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, memory T cells induced by previous pathogens can shape the susceptibility to, and the clinical severity of other infections, but the complete picture has yet to be elucidated. If the virus is not rapidly eliminated, COVID-19 may progress towards a secondary inflammatory phase that is directly responsible for a worsening in clinical symptoms and immune system impairment. Besides marked lymphopenia, COVID-19 patients’ T cell compartment displays several alterations involving different subpopulations of T cells in terms of phenotype, metabolic profile and functionality.
Omics Applied to Livestock Genetics,volume II
Since the first draft of a mammalian genome, we have seen large numbers of high throughput studies including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics, and metabolomics with the aim of better understanding the various biological molecules; DNA, RNA, proteins, and metabolites. These studies, collectively called “omics”, revolutionized genetic research in the last two decades, with a huge potential in livestock. There are several opportunities for livestock omics to amplify our knowledge of genetic variation in the main economical traits of the main production species. The big data produced by livestock “omics” projects has been made publicly available to researchers trying to implement and improve animal production through means besides environmental sustainability. Additionally, the “omics” approach can be holistically applied to improve animal breeding approaches and provide a better understanding of the genetic architecture of the species.
