Supplementation of Hermetia Illucens Larvae to Improve Growth Performance, Meat Quality, and Intestinal Microbiology of Broiler in a Cost‐Effective Manner

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Hermetia illucens larvae meal (HIL) improved broiler growth, carcass yield, gut microbiology, and profitability, with the highest performance observed at 12% inclusion. However, lower inclusion levels (4%) offered a better balance by enhancing meat quality and maintaining favourable fatty acid profiles while still supporting productive and economic ...

The Impacts of Shatamuli, Ashwagandha and their Combination on Growth Performance, Faecal Microbial Population and Blood Parameters in Sonali Chickens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Phytogenic feed additives have shown potential in enhancing nutrient utilization, improving performance and mitigating pathogenic challenges in Sonali chicken. Objective The goal of the current study was to assess how Shatamuli (Asparagus racemosus) and Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) affected the Sonali chickens' growth ...

Effect of Diet Neutral Detergent Fibre Content on Dry Matter Intake, Nutrient Digestibility, Growth Efficiency and Carcass Characteristics of Finishing South African Mutton Merino Wether Lambs

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Feeding South African Mutton Merino lambs low‐NDF lucerne hay diets improved nutrient digestibility, energy utilisation, growth efficiency, and carcass quality. Despite lower intake at the lowest NDF level, fibre digestibility and feed conversion improved, indicating that highly digestible, low‐NDF finishing diets enhance lamb growth and carcass traits.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Gross Anatomy and Approach to the Humerus and Femur in the White‐Eared Opossum (Didelphis albiventris)

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Microbial and Genomic Information Synergistically Contribute to Predicting Swine Performance Across Production Systems

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 2, Page 256-272, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbiota composition represents a promising tool in precision farming, simultaneously serving as a benchmark of environmental challenge, a predictor of animal physiological status, and a direct target for host selection. In this paper, we compared the ability of microbiota composition and genomic information to predict swine performance in ...

Genomic Prediction Ability for Novel Profitability Traits Using Different Models in Nelore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 2, Page 244-255, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy, bias and dispersion of genomic predictions for accumulated profitability (APF) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT) in Nelore cattle using different prediction approaches. The dataset consisted of 3969 phenotypic records for each trait. The pedigree harboured information from 38,930

Genomic Analysis of Taurine and Indicine Ancestry in the Montana Tropical Composite Population

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 2, Page 273-282, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Montana Tropical cattle, a Taurine and Indicine composite, were developed in Brazil since 1994 and were based on crossing four biological types of cattle: zebu (mainly Nelore), tropical adapted taurine (mainly Senepol and Romosinuano), British taurine (mainly Angus) and continental taurine (as Charolais, Simental and Limousin).
