Analysis of Creep Feed Efficiency by a Linear Model on Grazing Japanese Black Cattle Calves

open access: yesNihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 1992
黒毛和種の親子組を用いて,放牧期における子牛へのクリープ飼料の給与の効果について調べた.合計30組の親子組をI群,II群,そしてIII群の3つの区に分割配置し,1990年の4月17日から同年10月24日まで放牧した.I群は開牧前に子牛にクリープ飼料への馴致を行ない,放牧期も引続きクリープ飼料を給与した.II群は馴致は行なわず,放牧期のみクリープ飼料を給与した.III群はクリープ飼料無給与である.クリープ飼料は子牛の採食に合せて追加給与し,体重測定は毎週行なった.解析には,Brodyの成長モデルの誘導関数を含む線形モデルを利用した.子牛の日増体重を目的変数(Y)とし,成長モデルからの誘導関数,飼料摂取量(Cp),馴致の有無(Tr),子牛の性(Sx1,Sx2),母乳の産次(Pt1,Pt2),放牧の歴月 ...

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Investigating the Potential Consequences of Woodland Creation for British Mammal Populations

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
We simulated the conversion of suitable areas in the UK to woodland, according to the current and target woodland creation rates, and assessed how this would affect habitat availability and potential population sizes of British mammals. We predicted that most assessed mammals would benefit or be unaffected by planned woodland creation, but some ...

Nutrient addition and herbivore exclusion alter plant traits and biomass via distinct mechanisms: intraspecific variability vs species turnover

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2251-2262, March 2026.
Summary Soil nutrients and vertebrate herbivory are key ecological factors with opposite and interactive effects on grassland plant traits and biomass. Partitioning trait changes into species turnover and intraspecific change provides a mechanistic linkage between trait shifts and biomass responses.
