Olive Cake in Livestock Nutrition
Jordan Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2021 Depending on species and the utilized production system, feed represents the biggest variable cost to livestock producers. For example, feed cost represents 40-50% of the production cost of intensively managed cows and up to 60-70% of the cost of extensively managed sheep and goats.

Potential nutritional and physiological functions of betaine in livestock [PDF]
Nutrition Research Reviews, 2005 AbstractThe present review summarises the potential nutritional and physiological functions of betaine as a feed additive in relation to performance criteria in livestock production. Betaine, the trimethyl derivative of the amino acid glycine, is a metabolite of plant and animal tissues. In plants, betaine is particularly synthesised and accumulated as

Metal–Phenolic Complexation Governs Soil Mineral Crystallinity to Enhance Crop Growth
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A coordination‐driven, coprecipitation approach is presented to obtain polyphenolic‐incorporated minerals with tunable crystallinity, offering insights into how plants may influence soil mineral structures. Soil minerals can incorporate polyphenolic secondary metabolites and enhance plant nutrition by facilitating the formation of amorphous metal ...

ELF5‐Mediated Enhancer–Promoter Interaction Regulates LALBA Expression in Ovine Mammary Gland
Advanced Science, EarlyView.In the study, we systematically investigate the epigenetic mechanisms underlying lactation traits in sheep by integrating transcriptomic, chromatin accessibility, histone modification, and functional analyses. We identify a super‐enhancer at the LALBA locus and demonstrate that enhancer E4 functions as its core regulatory element.
