Testimony before the Kansas Legislature, House Energy, Utilities and Telecommunications Committee, by David Nickel, Consumer Counsel, Citizens' Utility Ratepayer Board.Citizens' Utility Ratepayer Board legislative testimony ; 2023Testimony in support of House Bill 2156. "HB 2156 permits, but does not require, Kansas utilities that are subject to regulation by the Commission to file tariffs in an appropriate rate case that contain rates, terms or charges to provide relief for low-income utility ratepayers. In order to be effective, these proposed tariffs must be approved by the Commission as just and reasonable, not unduly preferential and not unreasonably discriminatory. The intent of this legislation is to eliminate a potential decision from a Kansas appellate court that such proposed or effective rates, terms or charges are unjust, unreasonably discriminatory and/or unduly preferential merely because such rates, terms or charges are below the cost of service for the benefit of low-income residential customers. Importantly, it is not the intent of this bill to cause Kansas utilities to become charities, as charitable functions are appropriately met by other organizations. Rather, HB 2156 is framed only to allow Kansas utilities to find just and reasonable ways to help low-income ratepayers better cope with their high energy burden.
Genome-wide associations for milk production and somatic cell score in Holstein-Friesian cattle in Ireland
No full textpeer-reviewedBackground: Contemporary dairy breeding goals have broadened to include, along with milk production traits, a number of non-production-related traits in an effort to improve the overall functionality of the dairy cow. Increased indirect selection for resistance to mastitis, one of the most important production-related diseases in the dairy sector, via selection for reduced somatic cell count has been part of these broadened goals. A number of genome-wide association studies have identified genetic variants associated with milk production traits and mastitis resistance, however the majority of these studies have been based on animals which were predominantly kept in confinement and fed a concentrate-based diet (i.e. high-input production systems). This genome-wide association study aims to detect associations using genotypic and phenotypic data from Irish Holstein-Friesian cattle fed predominantly grazed grass in a pasture-based production system (low-input). Results: Significant associations were detected for milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, fat percentage, protein percentage and somatic cell score using separate single-locus, frequentist and multi-locus, Bayesian approaches. These associations were detected using two separate populations of Holstein-Friesian sires and cows. In total, 1,529 and 37 associations were detected in the sires using a single SNP regression and a Bayesian method, respectively. There were 103 associations in common between the sires and cows across all the traits. As well as detecting associations within known QTL regions, a number of novel associations were detected; the most notable of these was a region of chromosome 13 associated with milk yield in the population of Holstein-Friesian sires. Conclusions: A total of 276 of novel SNPs were detected in the sires using a single SNP regression approach. Although obvious candidate genes may not be initially forthcoming, this study provides a preliminary framework upon which to identify the causal mechanisms underlying the various milk production traits and somatic cell score. Consequently this will deepen our understanding of how these traits are expressed

The distal end of porcine chromosome 6p is involved in the regulation of skatole levels in boars
Get PDFAbstract Background Boar taint is an unpleasant condition of pork, mainly due to the accumulation of androstenone and skatole in male pigs at onset of puberty. This condition is the cause of considerable economic losses in the pig industry and the most common practice to control it is to castrate male piglets. Because of the economic and animal welfare concerns there is interest in developing genetic markers that could be used in selection schemes to decrease the incidence of boar taint. The Porcine 60 K SNP Beadchip was used to genotype 891 pigs from a composite Duroc sire line, for which skatole levels in fat had been collected. Results The genome-wide association study revealed that 16 SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) located on the proximal region of chromosome 6 were significantly associated with skatole levels. These SNPs are grouped in three separate clusters located in the initial 6 Mb region of chromosome 6. The differences observed between the homozygote genotypes for SNPs in the three clusters were substantial, including a difference of 102.8 ng/g skatole in melted fat between the homozygotes for the ALGA0107039 marker. Single SNPs explain up to 22% of the phenotypic variance. No obvious candidate genes could be pinpointed in the region, which may be due to the need of further annotation of the pig genome. Conclusions This study demonstrated new SNP markers significantly associated with skatole levels in the distal region of chromosome 6p. These markers defined three independent clusters in the region, which contain a low number of protein-coding genes. The considerable differences observed between the homozygous genotypes for several SNPs may be used in future selection schemes to reduce skatole levels in pigs</p
