Abstract Background Livestock, especially ruminants, are a major source of global methane emissions, primarily produced by methanogenic archaea during enteric fermentation. We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to account for factors that could influence the relationship between ruminal methanogenic populations and methane emissions, such ...

Abstract Background Fusarium graminearum, one of the causal agents of ear rot in maize and head blight of cereal grains, also infects hemp (Cannabis sativa L. containing a maximum of 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol or THC). This fungal pathogen produces trichothecene mycotoxins when it infects maize and cereal grains, but little is known about its production

Accurate genetic evaluations rely on high-quality phenotypic data; however, measurement errors and data inconsistencies—such as those arising from unsupervised or incomplete sources—pose challenges to their reliability. This study investigates the effect

Abstract BACKGROUND This study created functional fermented goat milk by adding blackberry pulp and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus LA‐5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb‐12). The preparation involved two variations of fermented goat milk with blackberry (Rubus sp.), distinguished by the absence (fermented goat milk, FGM) or inclusion

ABSTRACT Increasing evidence suggests that dairy consumption may decrease the risk of chronic diseases. However, this association remains unclear due to methodological limitations. As a part of a secondary analysis, we used compound‐specific stable isotope analysis to increase the accuracy of the dairy FA biomarkers (15:0, 17:0), considering that each ...

A Modern Metrical Baseline for Sexing Sheep Horn‐Cores
ABSTRACT Sex determination is essential for reconstructing past livestock management, yet the limited skeletal sexual dimorphism of sheep hinders the identification of ewes, rams, and wethers in archaeological assemblages. Horn‐cores are the most sexually dimorphic element of the sheep skeleton, and here, we establish a new metrical baseline for ...

Abstract Adoption of conservation practices in US agriculture remains limited despite demonstrated environmental and social benefits. Farmer demonstration programmes aim to accelerate conservation adoption by leveraging peer‐to‐peer learning, yet there are unresolved questions about how conservation information moves through farming communities.

Abstract The environmental benefits of agroecological farm management have been demonstrated, but its uptake is still lagging. Understanding how specific practices relate to drivers and ecosystem services (ES), and what values of nature underlie those factors can be useful in understanding what type of practices are preferred by farmers under which ...

Abstract While large carnivore expansion is a conservation success, it increasingly challenges pastoralism. Beyond economic value, pastoralism provides critical biodiversity and sociocultural benefits, recognized by the UN and the EU's ‘High Nature Value farming’ designation.
