Preovulatory follicle characteristics and oocyte competence in repeat breeder dairy cows [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2017
The varied and elusive etiology of repeat breeding (RB) in dairy cows necessitates evaluation of oocytes and follicles, which have not previously been assessed together. Accordingly, we evaluated characteristics of preovulatory follicles and the competence of oocytes in control (CTL) and RB cows.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Neurolathyrism in Sub‐Saharan Africa—Assessing the Neurotoxic Risks of Lathyrus sativus Amid Drought and Food Security Challenges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Representation of grass pea consumption in drought‐stricken sub‐Saharan Africa sustains nutrition, but excess β‐ODAP exposure due to multiple reasons triggers neurolathyrism, a progressive neurotoxic disorder. ABSTRACT Neurolathyrism is a progressive motor neuron disease due to the consumption of Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) over long periods.

Blood biochemical profile of Sudanese crossbred repeat breeder cows [PDF]

African Journal of Biotechnology, 2017
El reproductor repetido (RB) es una vaca que no logra concebir a partir de tres o más inseminaciones sucesivas, pero con celo normal y ausencia de anomalías clínicas detectables. Es uno de los principales problemas en la producción láctea. En el presente estudio, se examinó la bioquímica plasmática de las vacas RB cruzadas sudanesas.

Probiotic fermented goat milk incorporated with blackberry (Rubus sp.): A novel functional food product

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study created functional fermented goat milk by adding blackberry pulp and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus LA‐5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb‐12). The preparation involved two variations of fermented goat milk with blackberry (Rubus sp.), distinguished by the absence (fermented goat milk, FGM) or inclusion

Familiarity and aggression shape long‐term associations and mortality risk in a solitary ungulate

Oikos, EarlyView.
Periodic social interactions are important to animal fitness, even in solitary species. For solitary species, these interactions can be unexpected and shaped by previous encounters. Despite being aggressive and largely solitary, black rhinoceroses Diceros bicornis are commonly seen in groups, suggesting they may engage in more social behaviours than ...

Ovarian physiology of repeat breeder cows at Bathan area of Bangladesh

Bangladesh Journal of Livestock Research, 2021
The experiment was implemented at farmer’s house and Bathan areas of Shahjadpur Upazila in Sirajganj and Bera Upazila under Pabna districts of Bangladesh. The aim of the study was to know the incidence of repeat breeding (RB), physiology of different follicles and deformity of ovary and uterus in Holstein Frisian (HF) cows.

What does coexistence mean? Insight from place‐based trajectories of pastoralists and bears encounters in the Pyrenees

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact ...
