Feather pecking is a complex trait, which is partly under genetic control. Different hypotheses have been proposed to explain the etiology of feather pecking and notably, several studies have identified similarities between feather pecking and human mental disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and schizophrenia. This study uses transcriptomic and phenotypic data from 167 chickens to map expression quantitative trait loci and to identify regulatory genes with a significant effect on this behavioral disorder using an association weight matrix approach. From 70 of the analyzed differentially expressed genes, 11,790 genome wide significantly associated variants were detected, of which 23 showed multiple associations (≥15). These were located in proximity to a number of genes, which are transcription regulators involved in chromatin binding, nucleic acid metabolism, protein translation and putative regulatory RNAs. The association weight matrix identified 36 genes and the two transcription factors: SP6 (synonym: KLF14) and ENSGALG00000042129 (synonym: CHTOP) as the most significant, with an enrichment of KLF14 binding sites being detectable in 40 differentially expressed genes. This indicates that differential expression between animals showing high and low levels of feather pecking was significantly associated with a genetic variant in proximity to KLF14. This multiallelic variant was located 652 bp downstream of KLF14 and is a deletion of 1-3 bp. We propose that a deletion downstream of the transcription factor KLF14 has a negative impact on the level of T cells in the developing brain of high feather pecking chickens, which leads to developmental and behavioral abnormalities. The lack of CD4 T cells and gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors are important factors for the increased propensity of laying hens to perform feather pecking. As such, KLF14 is a clear candidate regulator for the expression of genes involved in the pathogenic development. By further elucidating the regulatory pathways involved in feather pecking we hope to take significant steps forward in explaining and understanding other mental disorders, not just in chickens."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2022"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fgene.2022.969752"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/113333"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1664-8021"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","eQTL analysis of laying hens divergently selected for feather pecking identifies KLF14 as a potential key regulator for this behavioral disorder"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2019Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","1"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Scientific Reports"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","9"],["dc.contributor.author","Falker-Gieske, Clemens"],["dc.contributor.author","Knorr, Christoph"],["dc.contributor.author","Tetens, Jens"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-10T18:11:09Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-10T18:11:09Z"],["dc.date.issued","2019"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1038/s41598-019-53901-z"],["dc.identifier.eissn","2045-2322"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16737"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/73908"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Blood transcriptome analysis in a buck-ewe hybrid and its parents"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2022-07-04Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.artnumber","49"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","1"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Genetics Selection Evolution"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","54"],["dc.contributor.author","Reich, Paula"],["dc.contributor.author","Falker-Gieske, Clemens"],["dc.contributor.author","Pook, Torsten"],["dc.contributor.author","Tetens, Jens"],["dc.date.accessioned","2022-08-04T12:06:22Z"],["dc.date.available","2022-08-04T12:06:22Z"],["dc.date.issued","2022-07-04"],["dc.date.updated","2022-07-25T11:18:58Z"],["dc.description.abstract","Background Genotype imputation is a cost-effective method to generate sequence-level genotypes for a large number of animals. Its application can improve the power of genomic studies, provided that the accuracy of imputation is sufficiently high. The purpose of this study was to develop an optimal strategy for genotype imputation from genotyping array data to sequence level in German warmblood horses, and to investigate the effect of different factors on the accuracy of imputation. Publicly available whole-genome sequence data from 317 horses of 46 breeds was used to conduct the analyses. Results Depending on the size and composition of the reference panel, the accuracy of imputation from medium marker density (60K) to sequence level using the software Beagle 5.1 ranged from 0.64 to 0.70 for horse chromosome 3. Generally, imputation accuracy increased as the size of the reference panel increased, but if genetically distant individuals were included in the panel, the accuracy dropped. Imputation was most precise when using a reference panel of multiple but related breeds and the software Beagle 5.1, which outperformed the other two tested computer programs, Impute 5 and Minimac 4. Genome-wide imputation for this scenario resulted in a mean accuracy of 0.66. Stepwise imputation from 60K to 670K markers and subsequently to sequence level did not improve the accuracy of imputation. However, imputation from higher density (670K) was considerably more accurate (about 0.90) than from medium density. Likewise, imputation in genomic regions with a low marker coverage resulted in a reduced accuracy of imputation. Conclusions The accuracy of imputation in horses was influenced by the size and composition of the reference panel, the marker density of the genotyping array, and the imputation software. Genotype imputation can be used to extend the limited amount of available sequence-level data from horses in order to boost the power of downstream analyses, such as genome-wide association studies, or the detection of embryonic lethal variants."],["dc.identifier.citation","Genetics Selection Evolution. 2022 Jul 04;54(1):49"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/s12711-022-00740-8"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/112649"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.holder","The Author(s)"],["dc.title","Development and validation of a horse reference panel for genotype imputation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2020Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","1"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","BMC Genomics"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","21"],["dc.contributor.author","Falker-Gieske, Clemens"],["dc.contributor.author","Mott, Andrea"],["dc.contributor.author","Preuß, Siegfried"],["dc.contributor.author","Franzenburg, Sören"],["dc.contributor.author","Bessei, Werner"],["dc.contributor.author","Bennewitz, Jörn"],["dc.contributor.author","Tetens, Jens"],["dc.date.accessioned","2021-04-14T08:23:58Z"],["dc.date.available","2021-04-14T08:23:58Z"],["dc.date.issued","2020"],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2021"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/s12864-020-07002-1"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/17529"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/81113"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation.eissn","1471-2164"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Department für Nutztierwissenschaften"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.holder","The Author(s)"],["dc.title","Analysis of the brain transcriptome in lines of laying hens divergently selected for feather pecking"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2021Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Molecular Biology Reports"],["dc.contributor.author","Falker-Gieske, Clemens"],["dc.contributor.author","Bennewitz, Jörn"],["dc.contributor.author","Tetens, Jens"],["dc.date.accessioned","2022-01-11T14:08:05Z"],["dc.date.available","2022-01-11T14:08:05Z"],["dc.date.issued","2021"],["dc.description.abstract","Abstract Background Feather pecking is a serious behavioral disorder in chickens that has a considerable impact on animal welfare and poses an economic burden for poultry farming.

These changes are one important ecological consequence, contributing to the risk of extinction in small and inbred fish populations under natural conditions, due to male-biased sex ratio. Here we investigated the effect of elevated water temperature during embryogenesis on sex ratio and sex-biased gene expression profiles between two different tissues, namely gonad and caudal fin of adult zebrafish males and females, to gain new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying sex determination (SD) and colour patterning related to sexual attractiveness. Results Our study demonstrated sex ratio imbalances with 25.5% more males under high-temperature condition, resulting from gonadal masculinization. The result of transcriptome analysis showed a significantly upregulated expression of male SD genes (e.g. dmrt1, amh, cyp11c1 and sept8b) and downregulation of female SD genes (e.g. zp2.1, vtg1, cyp19a1a and bmp15) in male gonads compared to female gonads. Contrary to expectations, we found highly differential expression of colour pattern (CP) genes in the gonads, suggesting the ‘neofunctionalisation’ of those genes in the zebrafish reproduction system. However, in the caudal fin, no differential expression of CP genes was identified, suggesting the observed differences in colouration between males and females in adult fish may be due to post-transcriptional regulation of key enzymes involved in pigment synthesis and distribution. Conclusions Our study demonstrates male-biased sex ratio under high temperature condition and support a polygenic SD (PSD) system in laboratory zebrafish. We identify a subset of pathways (tight junction, gap junction and apoptosis), enriched for SD and CP genes, which appear to be co-regulated in the same pathway, providing evidence for involvement of those genes in the regulation of phenotypic sexual dimorphism in zebrafish."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/s12864-019-5722-1"],["dc.identifier.pmid","31060508"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16103"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/59925"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Genetic mechanism underlying sexual plasticity and its association with colour patterning in zebrafish (Danio rerio)"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC2021Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","1002"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","4"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Animals"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","11"],["dc.contributor.author","Kilic, Isabel"],["dc.contributor.author","Stehr, Manuel"],["dc.contributor.author","Hennies, Mark"],["dc.contributor.author","Metges, Cornelia C."],["dc.contributor.author","Franzenburg, Sören"],["dc.contributor.author","Falker-Gieske, Clemens"],["dc.contributor.author","Tetens, Jens"],["dc.contributor.author","Daş, Gürbüz"],["dc.date.accessioned","2021-06-01T09:42:30Z"],["dc.date.available","2021-06-01T09:42:30Z"],["dc.date.issued","2021"],["dc.description.abstract","Here, we describe the first transcriptomic investigation of the peripheral blood of chickens exposed to Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinarum infections.

The goal of this study was to phenotypically characterize BCSE in Holstein cattle from Germany and Switzerland as well as to identify associated genome regions by GWAS.

By using imputed sequence level genotype data, three genome-wide significant GWAS hits were revealed on different chromosomes that were not detected by initial GWAS based on high density SNP array data highlighting the usefulness of this approach for mapping studies. The associated genome regions include the ABCC4 gene as well as markers adjacent to the NCOR2 and DNAJC3 genes all illustrating possible functional candidate genes. Our results challenge a monogenic mode of inheritance and indicate a more complex inheritance of BCSE in Holstein cattle. Furthermore, in comparison to previous results from German Braunvieh cattle, it illustrates an obvious genetic heterogeneity causing BSCE in cattle. Subsequent whole genome sequencing (WGS)-based analyses might elucidate pathogenic variants in the future."],["dc.description.abstract","Bilateral convergent strabismus with exophthalmos (BCSE) is a malformation of the eyes and is recognized as a mild but progressive disorder that affects cattle in the first two years of life. This most likely inherited disorder is rarely described in cattle resembling autosomal dominantly inherited forms of human progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO). In German Braunvieh cattle, two linked genome regions were found that could be responsible for the development and/or progression of BCSE.
