Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Yeasts that specialize in flower nectar play an important role in pollination ecology. Metschnikowia reukaufii and Metschnikowia koreensis were the most prevalent nectar yeasts found in our field sites. Bee pollinators exhibited different behavioural responses to nectar yeasts in field experiments. Bees visited more flowers with M.

Neutral detergent fibre in piglet diets: performance and gastrointestinal implications
Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2016 The intestinal health of piglets depends on the balance between diet, microflora and mucosal integrity. Disruption of this balance can compromise the digestive functions, leading to diarrhoeal frame and decline in performance of piglets.

Fiber level for laying hens during the growing phase
Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2014 Feeding management of laying hens has been focused on the direct influence of nutrient intake on weight gain, especially at growing phase. This study evaluates nutrient digestibility, performance, development of the digestive tract, body composition, and

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change has intensified the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation. Genetic selection has emerged as a promising mitigation strategy; however, studies on Bos taurus indicus , especially Nellore cattle, remain limited.

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rearing of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) offers a sustainable approach for producing high‐protein larvae for animal feed, contributing to waste reduction and nutrient recovery. While BSFL‐rearing is well studied, the role of non‐nutritive bulking agents such as sawdust remains unclear. Sawdust was added on top of the base substrate at 0%

Calidad de agropiro alargado (Thinopyrum ponticum) en estado vegetativo en relación con la edad y longitud de las hojas [PDF]
RIA: Revista Investigaciones Agropecuarias, 2013 The effect of leaf age and length on leaf blade quality was studied in wheatgrass leaf blades leaves (Thinopyrum ponticum cv. Hulk) from swards of two heights. Swards were grown in plots in a greenhouse (17± 4 ºC)in a randomized block design (n=3) of 160

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Newly‐weaned piglets face challenges such as reduced feed intake, impaired gut function, and susceptibility to post‐weaning diarrhoea, increasing the need for dietary strategies that support gut health and growth. This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with butyric acid (BA), resistant potato starch (PS), and their ...
