Manipulating concentrate level in the diet of tropical cattle to improve fiber utilization and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions

Journal of the Indonesian Tropical Animal Agriculture
This study evaluated the effects of concentrate level in diet, 10, 25, 40, and 60% forage dry matter (DM), on feed intake, nutrient utilization, weight gain (WG), and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 12 male crossbred cattle (Red Sindhi × local, Bos ...

Vocabulary Opens the Door; Creativity Guides the Search: Complementary Contributions to Second Language Semantic Fluency Across Domains

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Semantic fluency, the ability to retrieve words within a category, relies on lexical knowledge, semantic memory and executive control mechanisms. A richer, interconnected semantic memory and optimal executive control, as seen in creative individuals, enhance fluency through broad associative searches and quicker access to remote concepts ...

Higher fecal glucocorticoid and triiodothyronine metabolite concentrations are associated with agricultural use in male African savanna elephants

Global Ecology and Conservation
Human-wildlife conflict is increasing in frequency and distribution with the accelerating conversion of natural lands to agriculture. These agricultural areas provide valuable resources for wildlife, but also pose risks of conflict with humans.

Input Variability in Foreign Language Verb–Argument Construction Learning: A Primary School Intervention

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Input variability (i.e., varied experience with different grammar exemplars; “[talk/think/rant/wonder] about [god/bicycles/dogs]”) can improve generalization (i.e., “[Verb] about [Noun]”) and enhance learning. Controlled experiments show that input variability benefits children's generalization and extension of linguistic information from ...

The Judeo‐Islamic God

The Muslim World, EarlyView.
Abstract This article discusses the concept of the Judeo‐Islamic God as a substantive and defensible alternative to the problematic concept of the “Judeo‐Christian God” in popular, political, and academic Western discourses. It argues that the transcendent monotheistic deity of Islam, Allāh, is a direct continuation of the composite deity of Rabbinic ...

The search for the ultimate exercise countermeasure to preserve crew health and ensure mission success in long‐duration spaceflight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current understanding of crew health maintenance is founded upon decades of physiological research conducted in terrestrial spaceflight analogues and in low Earth orbit, particularly on the International Space Station. However, as we progress towards the Lunar Gateway and interplanetary missions, it is imperative that the tools employed to

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2368-2394, September 2026.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins?

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1662-1674, September 2026.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...
