Comparison of body size and reproductive hormones in high- and low-yielding Wulong geese

Poultry Science, 2022
: Wulong geese are renowned for their egg-laying and reproductive abilities. This work investigated the potential of using body size traits in the selection and breeding of high-yielding Wulong geese.

Flyway connectivity and exchange primarily driven by moult migration in geese

Movement Ecology, 2019
For the conservation and management of migratory species that strongly decrease or increase due to anthropological impacts, a clear delineation of populations and quantification of possible mixing (migratory connectivity) is crucial.

Protein Language Model‐Guided Engineering of a 2,3‐Butanediol Dehydrogenase for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclic α‐Hydroxy Ketones

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A (2R,3R)‐butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsBDH) is engineered for the enantioselective synthesis of 2‐hydroxycyclohexanone. A PASS computational design strategy is proposed to enhance the thermostability of BsBDH. Moreover, ESM‐1v combined with ISM is utilized for enhancing and inverting its stereoselectivity.

Comparative characterization of bacterial communities in geese consuming of different proportions of ryegrass

PLoS ONE, 2019
Geese are extremely well-adapted to utilizing plant-derived roughage in their diet, so the grass must be added to commercial diets under intensive rearing systems.

Contribution of Gli1+ Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

Home ranges and movements of resident graylag geese (Anser anser) in breeding and winter habitats in Bavaria, South Germany. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
In several countries in northwestern Europe, the number of resident greylag geese (Anser anser) has increased by up to 20% a year over the last few decades. The increasing numbers of geese are causing problems in tourism and agriculture.

Comparison of the broody behavior characteristics of different breeds of geese.

Poultry Science, 2019
A low laying performance in goose is one of the key factors preventing the industrial development, and the laying performance is related to broody behavior. However, the characteristics of broody behavior in geese remain unclear. In this study, the total

A Conjugation Delivery System of Macrophages and Platelet Pharmacytes Promotes Regeneration After Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A macrophage–platelet conjugation system (M‐P‐NPs@PPARγ) targets injure tissue to co‐deliver platelet mitochondria and PPARγ‐encoding NPs. This strategy boosts the macrophage energy supply and restores lipid homeostasis, leading to synergistically enhanced efferocytosis and tissue repair Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction occurs in macrophages with ...

Does Neuroticism Disrupt the Psychological Benefits of Nostalgia? A Meta‐analytic Test

European Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Nostalgia, a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, confers self‐oriented, existential, and social benefits. We examined whether nostalgic engagement is less beneficial for individuals who are high in neuroticism (i.e. emotionally unstable and prone to negative affect).
