Existing evidence on the effects of climate variability and climate change on ungulates in North America: a systematic map

Environmental Evidence
Background Climate is an important driver of ungulate life-histories, population dynamics, and migratory behaviors. Climate conditions can directly impact ungulates via changes in the costs of thermoregulation and locomotion, or indirectly, via changes ...

Sexual behavior in male mice is impaired by an obesogenic-diabetogenic diet and worsened by exposure to a relevant environmental mixture of phthalates

Environment International
The decrease in male fertility observed since the beginning of the 20th century in Western countries could be linked to changes in diets and exposure to molecules from industry, such as endocrine disruptors and, among them, phthalates.

Genomic preselection with genotyping-by-sequencing increases performance of commercial oil palm hybrid crosses

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background There is great potential for the genetic improvement of oil palm yield. Traditional progeny tests allow accurate selection but limit the number of individuals evaluated. Genomic selection (GS) could overcome this constraint.
