Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Animal Efficiency in an Intensive Beef Production System [PDF]

A stochastic input distance function is estimated to analyse the efficiency with which physical characteristics of individual lot-fed beef cattle in Australia are combined with conventional inputs to produce a final product possessing defined quality ...

Integrating ZooMS and taphonomy further highlights differential processing of animal and Neandertal carcasses in the Quina Mousterian at Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, southwest France)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cave of Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, France) was repeatedly visited by Neandertals ~55 000 years ago and is a key site in discussions of Neandertal cannibalism. Excavations between 1967 and 1980 (Vandermeersch) and between 2001 and 2013 (Maureille/Mann) produced a rich faunal assemblage (>20 000 bones), alongside Quina Mousterian ...

RETURNS TO SORTING AND MARKET TIMING OF ANIMALS WITHIN PENS OF FED CATTLE [PDF]

This research examines returns to cattle feeding operations that sort animals prior to marketing using ultrasound technology. The returns to sorting are between $11 and $25 per head depending on the number of groups the pens into which cattle can be ...

Macronutrient and micronutrient profiles of meat types: insights into human health and diet

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite considerable advances in global health and nutrition, emerging challenges such as population growth, climate change, and limited natural resources continue to threaten food security. Meat remains an essential component of the human diet, supplying high‐quality proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and minerals necessary ...

Copaiba oleoresin as a substitute for sodium lasalocid in high‐concentrate diets for lambs: growth performance, ingestive behavior, and metabolic and ruminal parameters

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The indiscriminate and excessive use of ionophore additives has been associated with the emergence of multi‐resistant pathogenic strains and the global spread of antibiotic resistance, raising serious public health concerns. Thus, plant biocompounds have been the focus of several studies aiming to replace ionophore additives in ...

Ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) survival in southwestern Oregon

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We captured and monitored radio‐collared ringtails over 2 years to estimate monthly and annual survival rates. We found that annual survival rates were much higher within forested landscapes in Oregon than for populations in the southwestern United States.

Beginning with a single step: A social theory of change for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Following opinions of chronic wasting disease management experts, we identified and prioritized critical interventions to address the disease. We developed a theory of change for the most prioritized intervention that supports the implementation of engagement or social marketing strategies to increase support for management.
