Twenty-five-centimeter pre-grazing canopy height in palisade grass and forage peanut
Scientia Agricola, 2021 : Short-term grazing behavior variables are sensitive to the canopy structure and have an impact on daily forage intake. This study evaluated the effect of pre- and post-grazing canopy heights on the forage harvesting process at a patch scale in a ...

Camouflage Treatment of a Severe Deep-Bite and Orthognathic Surgery Required Case with En Masse Retraction [PDF]
Turkish Journal of Orthodontics, 2017 In adult patients with severe class II division 2 malocclusion, the ideal treatment option is the orthognathic surgery. However, camouflage therapy is also an acceptable treatment option due to its less traumatic and acceptable esthetic and functional results. In this case report, the camouflage treatment with two maxillary premolar extractions in a 21-

Effect of Postnatal Myostatin Inhibition on Bite Mechanics in Mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 As a negative regulator of muscle size, myostatin (Mstn) impacts the force-production capabilities of skeletal muscles. In the masticatory system, measures of temporalis-stimulated bite forces in constitutive myostatin KOs suggest an absolute, but not ...

Functional compartmentalization of the human superficial masseter muscle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Some muscles have demonstrated a differential recruitment of their motor units in relation to their location and the nature of the motor task performed; this involves functional compartmentalization.

Increased searching and handling effort in tall swards lead to a Type IV functional response in small grazing herbivores [PDF]
, 2011 Understanding the functional response of species is important in comprehending the species’ population dynamics and the functioning of multi-species assemblages. A Type II functional response, where instantaneous intake rate increases asymptotically with

Intake and ingestive behavior of goats on marandu-grass pasture
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2015 The experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of Marandu-grass (Brachiaria brizantha) pasture height (30, 40, 50 and 60 cm) on the canopy structural traits and grazing behavior and forageingestion process by goats.

Handling Time and Bite Mass Mechanisms in Large Herbivores: Contrasts between Sward Structure and Grazing Methods [PDF]
, 2020 Grazing is a time-dependent process where jaw movements of prehension, handling and chewing compete with them (Laca et al. 1994; Ungar et al. 2006). The grazing efficiency is dependent of bite mass and time per bite.
