Forest stand characteristics drive the macronutrient composition of Vaccinium winter forage for cervids

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Shrubs of the genus Vaccinium serve as foundation species in boreal ecosystems as they define much of the structure of the ground vegetation and play key roles in many ecosystem services and processes. For example, Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry) and Vaccinium vitis‐idaea (cowberry) constitute staple foods for several species of large ...

Intake, Digestibility, Nitrogen Balance, Rumen, and Blood Parameters of Cattle Supplemented With Acacia mearnsii Extract

open access: yesAnimal Science Journal, Volume 97, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of increasing levels of Acacia mearnsii extract as a source of condensed tannins on feed intake, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen (N) balance, rumen fermentation, and blood parameters of feedlot‐finished cattle. Eight rumen‐cannulated bulls were distributed in a replicated 4 × 4 square Latin design.
