Age- and sex-related differences in early-life gut microbiota and intestinal physiology in broiler chickens

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology
Background Early-life sex identification technologies are making sex-specific management increasingly feasible in broiler production, yet limited information exists on how males and females differ in the development of their gut ecosystem.

Sex-dependent effects of a high-fat diet on the hypothalamic response in mice

Biology of Sex Differences
Sex differences in rodent models of diet-induced obesity are still poorly documented, particularly regarding how central mechanisms vary between sexes in response to an obesogenic diet.

Early life fecal microbiota transplantation enhances fermentation potential by changing the microbial profiles in broiler chickens

Poultry Science
The early gut microbiota of broiler chickens plays a critical role in shaping physiological functions later in life. Broilers have a limited capacity to utilize dietary fiber at an early stage of life.

Early gut microbiota transplantation in broiler chicks exerts effects on intestinal health depending on the donor’s microbial composition

Poultry Science
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a promising strategy for modulating the gut microbiota to enhance broilers’ health. This study investigated the effects of FMT of broilers (FMT1), laying hens (FMT2), and broiler breeders (FMT3) as donor on the ...

Using capillary electrophoresis to identify Anopheline species in routine sampling sites

Ecology and Evolution
In the Anopheles genus, various mosquito species are able to transmit the Plasmodium parasites responsible for malaria, while others are non‐vectors. In an effort to better understand the biology of Anopheles species and to quantify transmission risk in ...
