Spontaneous Baccharis coridifolia Poisoning in Suckling Lambs

Acta Scientiae Veterinariae, 2018
Background: Baccharis coridifolia is one of the most important and common poisonous plants in Rio Grande do Sul (RS) state, Brazil (RS). The intoxication occurs when native livestock are exposed to the plant for the first time, especially when they are hungry, thirsty and stressed after transportation.

Milk Yield and Composition Curves During the Postweaning Machine‐Milking Period in Red Deer Hinds

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 3, June 2026.
Deer milk is a dairy product valued for its unique composition and market potential. Research into deer lactation dynamics remains limited. In this study, 4,386 test‐day records from 170 red deer (Cervus elaphus L.) hinds in New Zealand were used to model the milk yield and composition curves using random regression models based on Legendre polynomials.

Update of the risk assessment on dioxins and dioxin‐like PCBs in feed and food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2018 risk assessment on polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin‐like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL‐PCBs) in feed and food, based on the 2022 WHO Toxic Equivalency Factors (WHO2022‐TEFs).

Genetic Parameter Estimation for Plasma Biomarkers Associated With Energy Reserves During Critical Physiological Stages in Sheep

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 3, Page 443-456, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The ability of ruminants to mobilise and restore body reserves (BR) over time, referred to as BR dynamics, is currently considered an interesting biological component to be included in breeding programs targeting enhanced BR resilience. However, genetic studies of proxies for BR levels and BRD remain scarce, particularly in small ruminants ...
