(2011)Among the aphidophaga guild present in alfalfa [Medicago sativa L. (Fabaceae)], coccinellids forage on aphids most of the time on the foliage and carabids on the ground. The result of their combined effect can be synergistic, ...
-
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1981)Strips of rumen wall from bovine fetuses were incubated in an organ bath with prostaglandin F2 alpha (0.13 to 33.76 μg/ml). The highest reactivity with a submaximal dose (17.03 μg/ml) was observed in the period between 3.0 ...
-
(MDPI, 2020)Simple Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the effects of degree of unsaturation of dietary lipids on lipid-related metabolites and transcription of genes involved in lipid metabolism in subcutaneous ...
-
(2010)Protected areas are the most important tool for the conservation of biodiversity. However. many species are area-demanding and their populations seldom meet their space requirements in reserves. In this context, the ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015)Welfare of working horses is a matter of public concern, with scarce information on their possible physiological coping mechanisms. The aim of this study was to assess changes in possible physiological welfare indicators ...
-
(MDPI, 2021)Castration of males is a common procedure in cattle production. Surgical procedures are most commonly used, but there is an increasing interest in non-invasive alternatives to avoid risk of infection, bleeding, pain, ...
-
(BMC, 2021)Salmonid rickettsial septicaemia (SRS) is a contagious disease caused by Piscirickettsia salmonis, an intracellular bacterium. SRS causes an estimated economic loss of $700 million USD to the Chilean industry annually. ...
-
(Elsevier, 2016)Immunocastration has emerged as an alternative to surgical castration in different animal species. This study examined the effectiveness of a new vaccine formulation for immunocastration using the biopolymer chitosan as ...
-
(CSIRO PUBLISHING, 2011)The present study evaluated the hypothesis that the effects of hypoxia on sheep pregnancies at high altitude (HA) are mediated by oxidative stress and that antioxidant vitamins may prevent these effects. Both HA native and ...
-
(Nature, 2020)The objective of this study was to compare the effect of contrasting sources of dietary n-6 and n-3 PUFA on expression of genes related to lipid metabolism in dairy cows. During 63 days, fifteen lactating cows were assigned ...
-
(MDPI, 2020)Simple Summary This study analyzed effects of vegetable oils fed to dairy cows on abundance of genes related to lipid metabolism in milk somatic cells (MSC). During 63 days (9 weeks), 15 cows were allocated to 3 treatments: ...
-
(1996)To minimize excessive fatness of broiler chicks, a two-stage experiment was run. During the first stage, a 75% dilution of the starter diet with oat hulls was done for 0,7 or 10 days, starting on day 7 of age (treatments ...
-
(American Dairy Science Association, 2000)Fatty acid composition of plasma triacylglycerides and milk fat was analyzed from Holstein and Jersey cows with control or depleted copper status and fed roasted whole soybeans or tallow. Conjugated linoleic acid in plasma ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2004-01)The Maulino forest is a unique temperate ecosystem restricted to a small range of the coast of central Chile. This forest harbors many endemic species, and is threatened due to intensive deforestation and fragmentation. ...
-
(Springer, 2020)Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is the major fish species produced in Brazil, a country with a vast territory and great climate diversity. This study assessed the effects of the genotype x environment interaction on ...
