Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

Applying a Systems Thinking Approach to Circular Economy Transitions: Insights From the Use of a Sociotechnical Systems Approach Within the UK Hospitality Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite more than 20 years of research into sustainable tourism, the environmental impact of the UK hospitality sector remains high. A growing body of research into the concept of a circular economy (CE) demonstrates that transitioning to this way of working has significant benefits both for the environment and business outcomes.

Experimental methods in chemical engineering: Atomic absorption spectrometry—AAS

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Elements absorb electromagnetic radiation (light) of a specific wavelength in proportion to the number of atoms in its path. As the atoms absorb this light energy, electrons rise from the ground state to an excited state. In atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), high temperatures produce clouds of atoms from the sample (atomization) and ...

Biophysical processes of morphogenesis in lizard lungs

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The lungs of squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) are highly diverse, exhibiting single chambers, multiple chambers, transitional forms with two to three chambers, along with a suite of other anatomical features, including finger‐like epithelial projections into the body cavity known as diverticulae.

Regulation of Oxygen Vacancies in High Entropy Oxides With Multi‐Layer Eggshell Architectural Framework for Boosting the Electrochemical Performance of Supercapacitors

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
An oxygen vacancy–rich FeZnCuCoNi high‐entropy oxide was constructed using a dual‐defect engineering strategy. This multi‐layer eggshell‐structured material delivers remarkable electrochemical performance, with high specific capacitance, excellent rate capability, and long‐term cycling stability even after 10 000 cycles.

Two cis-regulatory SNPs upstream of ABCG2 synergistically cause the blue eggshell phenotype in the duck.

PLoS Genetics, 2020
Avian eggshell color is an interesting genetic trait. Here, we report that the blue eggshell color of the domestic duck is caused by two cis-regulatory G to A transitions upstream of ABCG2, which encodes an efflux transporter.

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...
