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

Abstract Macaúba (Acrocomia aculeata), a native species from Brazilian biomes, has emerged as a sustainable alternative to vegetable oil production. Its fruit presents high oil yield (3–6 ton/ha), extracted from its kernel and pulp. While the kernel is suitable for food and cosmetics application, the pulp oil has been considered as a promising ...
