Twenty-five-centimeter pre-grazing canopy height in palisade grass and forage peanut

open access: yesScientia 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 ...

Effect of Postnatal Myostatin Inhibition on Bite Mechanics in Mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...
