Preference and In Vitro Digestibility of Leaves of Woody Plants by Sheep in the Northern Sudanian Zone

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 200-212, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In West Africa, trees and shrubs are important for feeding ruminant livestock during the dry season. This study aimed to determine the in vitro digestibility of organic matter from eight woody species using a gas test with and without the addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and evaluate their preference by sheep using a cafeteria test ...

Signature of Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Related to Climate Adaptation and Production Traits in Lao Native Goats

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 152-171, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenous goats well‐adapted to their local environments, making them crucial genetic resources. Understanding the

Livelihood Diversification in Cholistan Desert: Analyzing the Role of Human, Natural, and Financial Capital on Household Well‐Being

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Livelihood earning in desert areas has always been a challenge worldwide due to droughts and natural hazards. This study aims to analyze livelihood diversification strategies (income, wealth, and livelihood diversifications) and the impact of human, natural, physical, financial, and social capital on the well‐being of the people of the Cholistan Desert

Portable Molecular Diagnostics for Cetacean Morbillivirus: Development of a Reverse Transcription Insulated Isothermal PCR (RT‐iiPCR) for Global Surveillance

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cetacean morbillivirus (CeMV) drives recurrent unusual‐mortality events, yet surveillance is uneven where laboratory capacity is limited. We developed a portable reverse transcription‐insulated isothermal PCR (RT‐iiPCR) assay targeting a conserved phosphoprotein (P)‐gene segment and evaluated analytical performance, tissue‐level clinical sensitivity ...
