Body Composition, Physical Activity and Energy Requirements Estimated Using Two Isotopic Methods in Old and Adult Beagle Dogs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Energy requirements (ER) are known to decline as dogs age into the senior stage. However, the implications of body composition and physical activity (PA) on this parameter remain poorly investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate ER, body composition, water turnover rate (WTR), and voluntary PA by triaxial accelerometers in adults (5.2

Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss in Obese Senior Dogs: Effects on Energy Expenditure, Protein Turnover, and Voluntary Physical Activity

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Implications of obesity and weight loss (WL) for energy and protein metabolism are not fully understood, particularly in senior dogs. This study evaluated changes in body composition, energy expenditure (EE), protein turnover (PT), and voluntary physical activity (VPA) in senior dogs in maintenance and after 10% and 20% WL.

Lithochloron, a new genus of green algae residing in coral skeleton (Cladophorales, Chlorophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Coral skeletons host diverse microbial communities, including endolithic green algae that contribute to holobiont functioning. The siphonous green alga Ostreobium (Bryopsidales) is arguably the best‐known coral endolith, but recent environmental sequencing has indicated that other lineages of green algae may also inhabit the coral skeleton ...
