How do parasites and predators choose their victim? A trade‐off between quality and vulnerability across antagonistic interactions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can

Apolipoprotein VLDL-II inhibits lipolysis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in the laying hen.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
In the laying hen, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles contain large amounts of apolipoprotein (apo)-VLDL-II in addition to apoB. These triglyceride-rich lipoproteins are transported from the liver primarily to growing oocytes.

Legehennenhaltung: Auslaufnutzung – optimale Strukturierung auf Praxisbetrieben [PDF]

open access: yes
One of the main problems in free range husbandry of laying hens is the uneven use of the hen run. Several former experiments showed that a good and manifold structuring is necessary to achieve a better use of the hen run and better dispersion of the ...

Nietzsche's Conception of Skepticism as Intellectual Virtue and Vice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent approaches are unable to make full sense of Nietzsche's distinction between weak and strong skepticism (BGE 208–209; A54). In this paper, I propose an alternative interpretation. My suggestion is that this distinction is best understood in the context of his virtue epistemology.

Lactiplantibacillus plantarum FRT4 attenuates high-energy low-protein diet-induced fatty liver hemorrhage syndrome in laying hens through regulating gut-liver axis

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology
Background Fatty liver hemorrhage syndrome (FLHS) becomes one of the most major factors resulting in the laying hen death for caged egg production. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (Lp.
