Feeding Behavior of Tonkean Macaques (Macaca tonkeana) in Schmutzer Primates Center and Ragunan Zoo, Jakarta

open access: yesMakara Journal of Science, 2015
Tonkean macaques are one of seven endemic macaque species on Sulawesi Island. Feeding management in captivity should pay attention to the quality, palatability, and feeding behavior patterns of animals.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Seed preferences by birds: effects of the design of feeding‐preference experiments

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, 2001
We analysed the effects of the design of feeding‐preference experiments in a study of seed selection by Rufous‐collared Sparrows Zonotrichia capensis . We presented eight seed options in multiple‐ and simple‐offer experiments.

Larval Feeding Habits of Five Firefly Species Across Aquatic, Semi-Aquatic, and Terrestrial Lineages

open access: yesInsects
While adult fireflies are terrestrial, their larvae inhabit various habitat types, and a lack of comprehensive research on the feeding habits of these larvae across different habitats has greatly impeded the development of artificial diets.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Weaned piglets prefer feed with hydroxychloride trace minerals to feed with sulfate minerals [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Animal Science, 2019
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether newly weaned piglets had a preference for diets containing hydroxychloride trace minerals (HTM). To test this, two preference tests were set up. In Exp. 1, the piglets could choose between HTM or inorganic, originating from sulfate trace minerals (STM) in the form of sulfates.

Gut bacteria prime and reinforce mature leaf oviposition preference in beetles via plant mediated feedback

open access: yesNature Communications
The gut microbiota can profoundly influence host behavior, yet underlying mechanisms for microbiota-driven behavioral adaptation remain elusive. We previously observed that female Plagiodera versicolora leaf beetles preferentially oviposit on mature ...

Effects of floral scents and their dietary experiences on the feeding preference in the blowfly, Phormia regina

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2015
The flowers of different plant species have diverse scents with varied chemical compositions. Hence, every floral scent does not uniformly affect insect feeding preferences.
