Blood testosterone level and growth of castrated, uncastrated, and cryptorchid lambs
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sexual status on blood testosterone levels and its influence on lamb growth. A total of 49 Texel x Corriedale males, originating of single births, were divided into three groups: uncastrated (n =

Population growth reflects the combined influence of regulation and density‐independent factors operating through demographic processes. Under exceptional circumstances (e.g. populations recovering from near‐extinction), growth may initially be weakly regulated but typically slows as negative density dependence (NDD) sets in.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The hormone insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) is a key player in the insulin/IGF signalling (IIS) pathway. Extensive biogerontological research demonstrates that this evolutionarily conserved nutrient‐sensing pathway plays a causal role in the regulation of growth ...

ABSTRACT Given the high levels of endemism, diversity, and increasing anthropogenic impacts in tropical regions, studies on species interactions and ecological networks are urgently needed to understand community responses to environmental change. Increasingly, molecular methods are used to monitor biodiversity and identify species interactions.

Abstract Structured population models are parameterized to accurately project expected population sizes, stage/state distributions and population growth rates, but they also predict the variation in outcomes among individuals, such as the variance and skewness of lifetime reproductive output (LRO) and lifespan, the probability of never reproducing, and
