Olive Waste as Feed Supplement: Morphometrical Effects on the Ansa spiralis coli in Lambs
ABSTRACT Feedlot systems for small ruminants require nutritionally adequate and viable diets, and the incorporation of olive residues can offer a sustainable and economically advantageous alternative. This study evaluated the effects of including olive waste at 7.5%, 15%, 22.5% and 30% in the diets of Texel × Ile‐de‐France lambs, assessing the ...

Genetic Parameters for Novel Feedlot Profitability‐Related Traits in Nelore Cattle
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate (co)variance components and genetic parameters for accumulated profitability (AFP) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT), and their relationships with weight at 450 days of age (W450), scrotal circumference at 365 days of age (SC365), age at first calving (AFC), probability of precocious calving at 30 ...

ABSTRACT Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens global banana production. Lignin reinforces cell walls against pathogens and lodging, yet its regulatory mechanisms in banana remain elusive. Through genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of lignin content across 184 banana accessions, we identified ...
