Effects of dietary brown propolis on nutrient intake and digestibility in feedlot lambs
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014 The present study tested brown propolis in crude or extract form as a feed supplement for feedlot lambs to identify the type that most improves in vivo nutrient digestibility. Digestibility was assessed by both total fecal collection and internal markers

Comparing Accuracy and Biases of DNA Metabarcoding, Hybridization Capture, and Metagenomic Sequencing for Quantifying Herbivore Diets. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding using relative read abundance (RRA) is commonly applied to estimate herbivore diet composition, yet its quantitative accuracy remains uncertain. We assessed taxonomic resolution and quantitative performance of RRA from DNA metabarcoding compared to metagenomic sequencing and hybridization capture, using deer scats from ...
