The Genetics of Thermoregulation in Pigs: A Review

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Heat stress (HS) affects pig performance, health and welfare, resulting in a financial burden to the pig industry. Pigs have a limited number of functional sweat glands and their thermoregulatory mechanisms used to maintain body temperature, are ...

Foraging patch selection in winter: a balance between predation risk and thermoregulation benefit. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In winter, foraging activity is intended to optimize food search while minimizing both thermoregulation costs and predation risk. Here we quantify the relative importance of thermoregulation and predation in foraging patch selection of woodland birds ...

Dehydration constrains thermoregulation and space use in lizards.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Climate change is negatively affecting many species. The increase in mean air temperature is often associated with shifts in distribution, changes in phenology, and local extinctions. Other factors that only partially correlate with air temperature, like
