Efficacy of Supplementing Lemongrass Powder on Growth, Metabolism, Immune and Endo‐Parasitic Status of Lambs in the Tropics

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Dietary supplementation of lemongrass powder (0.50 g per kg metabolic body weight) with a basal diet significantly enhanced lamb daily gain, growth velocity, feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility. It increased serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C), albumin and IgG concentrations, while reducing aspartate aminotransferase (AST ...

Identifying climate‐change refugia for species management and conservation in the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The impacts of climate change are already affecting many species and habitats, presenting challenges for species management and conservation. Protecting climate refugia—areas buffered from climate shifts where species can persist despite broader changes—has been proposed as a tool for managing species under climate change.

Tree Cover Mapping for Assessing Greater Sage-Grouse Habitat in Eastern Oregon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We used a predictive model to map canopy cover of vegetation over seven feet in height ( tall woody vegetation ) at 30-meter resolution over nearly 29 million acres within and adjacent to the range of the greater sage-grouse in Oregon (Figure 1). Texture

The Nutritional Composition, Textural and Sensory Properties of Pig Blood Sausages Formulated With Edible Meat By‐Products and Cereal Fillers

open access: yesJournal of Food Quality, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Blood sausages are made from edible by‐products of the slaughterhouse and other ingredients. Ingredients in the formulation influence the quality of the final product; therefore, this study aimed to determine the nutritional, textural and sensory characteristics of pig blood sausages prepared with distinct meat and cereal fillers to ascertain a trade ...

Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

A Decision Support Tool Using an Open‐Source Methodology for Identifying Woody Encroachment and Juniper Species Vulnerability in the Chickasaw Nation, Oklahoma, USA

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
First American peoples have relied on cultural burning to manage their lands and sustain healthy ecosystems, but modern agricultural practices and fire suppression have led to widespread juniper tree infestation in areas like Oklahoma. In response, the Chickasaw Nation developed an open‐source methodology, model and resulting decision‐support tool to ...

Microhabitat Selection by Greater Sage-Grouse Hens During Brood Rearing

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations have declined throughout the western United States over the past century. Loss of large stands of sagebrush is a major factor leading to the decline of sage-grouse populations.
