Microscopic and morphometric study of the proventriculus and ventriculus of the Striated Scope Owl (Otus Scors brucei) in Iraq

Kufa Journal for Veterinary Medical Sciences, 2014
The stomach of the Striated Scope Owl (OtusScorsbrucei) consist of two externally distinguishable chambers: that are the proventriculus (glandular part which secretes the gastric juices) and the gizzard (ventriculus) which has a mechanical function. The

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

The Supplementation of Different Levels of Moringa oleifera Leaf Powder in Diet and Its Effect on Growth Performance, Carcass, Meat and Skin Quality Traits in Japanese Quails

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study investigated the dietary supplementation of different levels of Moringa oleifera leaf powder and its effect on growth performance, carcass and meat quality traits in Japanese quails. Dietary supplementation of Moringa oleifera leaf powder improved body weight of quails at 2 weeks of age; however, it did not affect the carcass, skin and meat ...

Mitophagy and Ubiquitination Coordinate Context‐Specific Mitochondrial Quality Control and EMT/MET Plasticity to Drive Cancer Cell Invasion

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Metastatic invasion emerges when tumor‐intrinsic programs and microenvironmental forces converge on mitochondrial quality control. A context‐stratified framework links mtROS, mtDNA integrity, mechanics and nutrient/oxygen cues to fission–fusion remodeling, mtUPR and mitophagy.

Spatial Segregation and Trophic Niche Divergence in Two Disjunct Populations of Wedge‐Tailed Shearwater Ardenna pacifica in Eastern Australia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study investigated habitat use and trophic niche differentiation in two wedge‐tailed shearwater populations in eastern Australia (2015 to 2019). Temperate birds foraged mainly in southeastern Australian waters and undertook a pre‐staging detour towards the subtropical frontal zone before migration, whereas subtropical birds foraged further east ...

Safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of narasin and diclazuril (Interban®) for chickens for fattening and chickens reared for laying (Elanco GmbH)

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of the coccidiostat consisting of narasin and diclazuril (Interban®) for chickens for fattening and chickens reared for laying. The FEEDAP Panel concludes that the use of Streptomyces sp. NRRL B‐67771 in the production of
