Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

A COMPARATIVE HISTOLOGICAL STUDY ON THE SWEAT GLAND OF CATTLE (B. INDICUS) AND YAK (P. POEPHAGUS) [PDF]

open access: yesExploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2014
Yak and cattle are the species of different habitats, but are of the same genus Bos. In order to adapt to different habitats some changes may occur in cellular organizations, sweat gland morphology being one of the part of this cellular organization ...

Comparison of methanogen diversity of yak (Bos grunniens) and cattle (Bos taurus) from the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau, China

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Methane emissions by methanogen from livestock ruminants have significantly contributed to the agricultural greenhouse gas effect. It is worthwhile to compare methanogen from “energy-saving” animal (yak) and normal animal (cattle) in order to ...

Lower Methane Emissions from Yak Compared with Cattle in Rusitec Fermenters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Globally methane (CH4) emissions from ruminant livestock account for 29% of total CH4 emissions. Inherited variation about CH4 emissions of different animal species might provide new opportunity for manipulating CH4 production.

Sorption Isotherm Curves in Dry Extruded Pet Foods: Evaluation and Comparison With the Drying Curve

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sorption isotherms evaluate water exchange between food and environments with different water activities (aw), providing valuable information on physical changes and susceptibility of deterioration due to lipid oxidation and microbial growth.

Possible Consequences of Climate Change on Survival, Productivity and Reproductive Performance, and Welfare of Himalayan Yak (Bos grunniens)

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Yak are adapted to the extreme cold, low oxygen, and high solar radiation of the Himalaya. Traditionally, they are kept at high altitude pastures during summer, moving lower in the winter.

Regulating via Conditionality: The Instruments of the New Industrial Policy

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conditionality was a central concern in the development literature of the 1990s. With the significant expansion of targeted public support to private firms since the Great Financial Crisis, the issue of conditionality has once again become a focal point in industrial policy debates.

Rehearsing Responsiveness: Coaching Preservice Teachers to Work Within and Beyond Standardized Lesson Plans

open access: yesThe Reading Teacher, Volume 80, Issue 2, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Centrally developed English lesson plans provide structure and ensure curriculum coverage, yet they can constrain preservice teachers' creativity, responsiveness, and capacity to engage students meaningfully. Although this tension is well documented, there is limited practical guidance for teacher educators in University Teacher Preparation ...

Organization and Complexity of the Yak (Bos Grunniens) Immunoglobulin Loci

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
As important livestock in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, yak provides meat and other necessities for Tibetans living. Plateau yak has resistance to diseases and stress, yet is nearly unknown in the structure and expression mechanism of yak immunoglobulin loci ...
