Use of a glycogenic precursor during the prepartum period and its effects upon metabolic indicators and reproductive parameters in dairy cows

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2020
The aim was to evaluate if 1-2 propanodiol plus calcium propionate (glycogenic precursor) supplementation during the transition period in high yielding dairy cows reduces metabolic and reproductive dysfunctions during early lactation.

Effects of Feeding Rumen-Protected Sunflower Seed and Meal Protein on Feed Intake, Diet Digestibility, Ruminal, Cecal Fermentation, and Growth Performance of Lambs

Animals, 2019
The objective of this study was to analyze the efficacy of a treatment (MAH) of sunflower seed (SS) and meal (SM) with a malic acid solution (1 M; 400 mL/kg) and heating (150 °C, 2 h) to protect protein against rumen degradation and to improve the ...

Interaction of Inherited Microbiota from Cover Crops with Cash Crops

Agronomy, 2021
Cover crops (CC) provide important ecosystem services that are demanded to achieve more sustainable agrosystems. However, the legacy effects of CC on the microbial community structure and its interactions with the subsequent cash crops (CaC) are still ...

Assessing contributions of deterministic versus stochastic processes to local species assembly: A field experiment with annual plant‐dominated communities in gypsum systems

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this study, we experimentally show that stochasticity can play prominent roles in driving local species assembly in annual plant‐dominated communities of semiarid gypsum ecosystems. Drylands are traditionally viewed as restrictive environments that impose strong deterministic filtering effects, but neutral events can also contribute decisively to ...

Long‐Term Industrial‐Scale Study on Regulated Deficit Irrigation′s Effect on Flavonoid and Volatile Composition in Cabernet Sauvignon (Vitis Vinifera L.) Grapes

Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background and Aims Climate change and reduced precipitation pose significant challenges for the wine industry, particularly in vulnerable regions, where it is essential to incorporate irrigation management tools. Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is a step forward in that direction.
