Effects of Lycium barbarum Residue Substituting Dietary Maize on Fecal Microbiota and Growth Performance of Crossbred Simmental Cattle

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The bioactive substances we extracted from Lycium barbarum residue (LBR) have a typical polysaccharide structure. When 1.80% LBR was used to replace maize in the diet, the average daily gain of rossbred Simmental was significantly increased, and anti‐inflammatory ability was improved. In addition, LBR improved the fecal microbial composition, increased

Dietary Glutamine Supplementation Alleviated Rumen Epithelium Oxidative Damage and Apoptosis Induced by Feed Restriction via Maintaining Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Female Yaks

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary glutamine (Gln) supplementation increased the ATP levels and promoted cell proliferation in the rumen epithelium of feed‐restricted yaks. Besides, Gln inhibited ROS accumulation and reduced oxidative damage and apoptosis in the rumen epithelium of feed‐restricted yaks.

Are type 3 functional responses just statistical apparitions?

Ecosphere
Type 3 (sigmoidal) functional responses can protect rare prey from predation, but such functional responses are not often described. It is also not clear that factors that are hypothesized to promote type 3 functional responses, such as predator–prey ...

“Basic human things”: Investigating vehicle residents' continually fractured (information) landscapes

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This ethnographic study explores vehicle residents' information practices in the United States (US). Vehicle residents are people whose primary means of housing is a vehicle. This work builds on previous research encompassing transitions and fractured (information) landscapes. Using fractured information landscapes as the theoretical framework,

Spatial and seasonal foraging patterns drive diet differences among north Pacific resident killer whale populations

Royal Society Open Science
Highly social top marine predators, including many cetaceans, exhibit culturally learned ecological behaviours such as diet preference and foraging strategy that can affect their resilience to competition or anthropogenic impacts.

String Figuring young children's perspectives of quality in English early childhood education and care

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is a contested concept and has generally been conceptualised by inter‐related indicators such as staff qualifications, educational environment, policy or child‐to‐staff ratios. There has been a more limited emphasis on how young children might perceive and experience quality.
