A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds
Ibis, EarlyView.Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

Entrepreneurship and Financial Deregulation
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We quantitatively analyze the impact of US banking deregulation in the 1980s on the aggregate economy. Using recent econometric techniques, we first reexamine existing empirical evidence on the real effects of banking deregulation. We then construct a quantitative model that integrates imperfectly competitive banks into a general equilibrium ...

CEO Narcissism and Related Party Transactions
Journal of Business Finance &Accounting, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine the association between CEO narcissism and the likelihood of engaging in related party transactions (RPTs) and its influence on the value implications of these transactions. Furthermore, we investigate the effect of board monitoring on the relationship between CEO narcissism and the value effects of RPTs. We find that CEO narcissism

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT High litter sizes in pigs are associated with lower birth weights and increased within‐litter variation, which poses challenges to pig farming. Improving piglet uniformity and survival via genetic selection of terminal boars could be a strategy to enhance these traits.

Genetic Determination of Maternal Behaviour in Pigs
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In sows, maternal behaviour is a commercially important trait which affects sow and piglet welfare and the quality and safety of human‐animal interactions, especially if free farrowing of sows without crates is in place. The aim of this study was to evaluate maternal behaviour and to estimate its quantitative genetic parameters in Swiss ...

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The selection of feed efficient sows effectively converting feed into milk production and body weight gain will contribute to the overall profitability of pig farming systems. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for feed efficiency indicator traits during the sow lactation period, and to infer ...
