Targeting Myostatin for Sustainable Meat Production: Insights From Multiple Species
ABSTRACT Myostatin gene (MSTN), a TGF‐β superfamily member, negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth, positioning it as a prime genetic target for enhancing livestock meat production. This review synthesizes evidence from 1979 to 2025 on MSTN mutations across cattle, pigs, poultry, sheep, goats, and rabbits, emphasising impacts on yield, quality ...

Does rotational bale grazing affect the distribution of soil nutrients across pastures?
Abstract Rotational bale grazing (RBG), the strategic feeding of round hay bales directly on pasture with controlled access, offers an alternative to continuous winter hay feeding in a single paddock. This study evaluated RBG's potential to redistribute nutrients by increasing soil concentrations in field areas with lower phosphorus (P) and potassium ...

Shark bite scars were analysed on coastal dolphins in southeast Queensland, Australia to compare the predation risk between species and habitats. Australian humpback dolphins (Sousa sahulensis) exhibited the highest bite rates and individuals found in sheltered waters had higher shark bite scar prevalence than open waters.
