Evaluating 20% and 40% Inclusion of Sugary Former Foods in Pig Diets: Effects on Growth Performance, Feeding Behaviour, Carcass and Meat Quality Traits

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Former food products (FFP) are food industry leftovers that can be used as feed ingredients. We investigated the effects of sugary FFP on growth, feeding behaviour, carcass and meat quality of pigs fattened to a heavy weight. Three inclusion levels were tested: 0% (FFP‐0 = control), 20% (FFP‐20) and 40% (FFP‐40) FFP in grower (20–60 kg BW ...

Guanidinoacetic Acid Improves Growth Performance and Gut Health of Broilers Fed Metabolizable Energy‐Reduced Diets

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) supplementation to diets with different energy levels on growth performance, carcass traits, and gut health status in broiler chickens. A total of 9500 1‐day‐old Ross 308 broilers (equal numbers of males and females) were allocated to 1 of 5 dietary treatments (10 ...

Melanism in salamanders: effects of insularity, sex and size on dorsal colouration in Salamandra salamandra

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Integrative revision of the Australian carrion‐breeding Calliphorinae (Diptera: Calliphoridae): Revision of the Calliphora stygia‐ and ochracea‐groups

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The Australian carrion‐breeding Calliphorinae are revised using an integrative approach combining morphology and mitogenomics. A new taxonomic key, morphological images and verified mitogenomic data, including COX1 barcodes, are provided to support the identification of species.

Integrating natural baselines into ecosystem restoration: scaling herbivore targets for European landscapes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Herbivore‐mediated ecosystem processes are fundamental to biodiversity, yet have been greatly diminished by megafauna extinctions and replacement of wild herbivores by managed livestock. With increasing restoration ambitions—including the United Nations' (UN) Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and the European Union (EU) Nature ...
