Nutrigenomics: A tool to unlock genetic potential of Nigerian indigenous goat breeds.
Review in Open veterinary journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Nigerian indigenous goats represent a valuable genetic resource for meat and milk production. However, their productivity often falls below their genetic potential because of sub-optimal nutrition. Nutrigenomics offers a revolutionary approach to bridge this gap by exploring the interactions between nutrients and goat genes. This study explores how nutrigenomic tools can be used to identify gene variants associated with feed efficiency, meat quality, and milk production. Various technologies are designed to ensure the realization of genetic potential. Nutrigenomics is aimed at exploiting the noncoding section of an individual's genome, which is disregarded in traditional animal nutrient requirement assessment. Nutrigenomic technology has the potential to unlock the genetic potential of animals and essentially help to confront nutritional challenges and sub-optimal use of available feed resources, particularly in Nigerian indigenous goats, of which there is a dearth of information on their nutritional needs and requirements. This review discusses the potential of nutrigenomics to unlock the genetic potential of Nigerian indigenous goats. In addition, the review discusses the challenges and future directions of nutrigenomic research in Nigerian goats. By implementing nutrigenomic strategies, Nigerian goat production can be revolutionized, leading to increased productivity, improved product quality, and enhanced farmer livelihoods. It is hoped that this review will provide vital information to aid research into the nutrigenomics potential of unlocking the genetic potentials and reproductive performance of Nigerian indigenous goats through nutrition.
