Broadening the semiaquatic scene: Quantification of long bone microanatomy across pinnipeds
Abstract Investigations of bone microanatomy are commonly used to explore lifestyle strategies in vertebrates. While distinct microanatomical limb bone features have been established for exclusively aquatic and terrestrial lifestyles, identifying clear patterns for the semiaquatic lifestyle remains more challenging.

Forage Quality and Yield Enhancement via Wolfberry (Lycium barbarum L.)–Forage Intercropping System
The agroforestry system, which integrates the strategic intercropping of trees and grasses, is profoundly shaped by complex ecological interactions that dynamically reshape microclimatic environments and significantly impact the growth of understory ...

Influence of Harvesting on Quality of Alfalfa Forage used for Haylage and Hay
The paper presents the three years efficiency results (2011-2013) of the work and ways of harvesting (three types of mowers, with or without spreading the forage) influencing the quality of the forage (the content of crude protein and crude fiber) during

Summer Annual Variety Trial [PDF]
Warm season grasses, such as sorghum x sudangrass crosses, sudangrass, millets, and teff are high-yielding summer annuals that can provide quality forage in the hot summer months, when cool season grasses are not as productive.

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Improving alfalfa forage quality
Morphological and physiological traits contributing to the nutritive value of alfalfa forage are examined at harvesting and during a productive cyce. Leaf-to-stem ratio and the dynamics of development of stem internodes appear the main factors driving the nutritive value at the plant level.

Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Forage Yields in Turkey Hill Wilderness in East Texas for White-tailed Deer [PDF]
Wilderness areas are often considered quality areas where natural processes occur without human activity. It is often assumed that these unmanaged areas will provide and support quality wildlife habitat. The objective of this study was to evaluate the
