Sommario/riassunto

This book presents cross-discipline studies covering aspects ranging from animal science to social/consumer sciences and psychology, with the aim to collect and disseminate information promoting the continuous enhancement of animal welfare by improving stakeholders' perception of animal welfare. Although animal welfare is about how the animals perceive the surrounding environment, the actual welfare of the animals is dependent on how the stakeholders perceive and weigh animal welfare. The stakeholders can, either directly (i.e., through stock-people interaction with the animals) or indirectly (e.g., when retailers and consumers are willing to pay more for high welfare animal-based products), affect the way animals are kept and handled.

Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference, AlCoB 2014, held in July 2014 in Tarragona, Spain. The 20 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The scope of AlCoB includes topics of either theoretical or applied interest, namely: exact sequence analysis, approximate sequence analysis, pairwise sequence alignment, multiple sequence alignment, sequence assembly, genome rearrangement, regulatory motif finding, phylogeny reconstruction, phylogeny comparison, structure prediction, proteomics: molecular pathways, interaction networks, transcriptomics: splicing variants, isoform



inference and quantification, differential analysis, next-generation sequencing: population genomics, metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, microbiome analysis, systems biology.
