Nelore (N) and Nelore × Pantaneiro (NP) heifers exhibited similar grazing times, which were higher compared with Nelore × Angus (NA) heifers. Nelore heifers showed higher wither height and hip height values compared with NP heifers. The average values for NA heifers did not differ from the other genotypes. It was observed that chest depth, heart girth,

Biodiversity Credits: An Overview of the Current State, Future Opportunities, and Potential Pitfalls
ABSTRACT Biodiversity credits are an emerging vehicle for pro‐environmental financing, yet much uncertainty remains around how and when they could boost biodiversity conservation. Here we define what biodiversity credits are and explore impact pathways through a proposed theory of change. Based on evidence from 34 pilot projects and a review of lessons

Cannabinoids From Trema micranthum (L.) Blume (Cannabaceae): A Cannabinoid Profiling System
ABSTRACT Trema micranthum (L.) Blume is a species from the Cannabaceae botanical family, present all over the tropics. A recent study conducted by our group identified the presence of cannabidiol (CBD), Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiolic acid, and tetrahydrocannabinolic acid‐A in T. micranthum extracts.

ABSTRACT Yeasts belonging to the genus Rhodotorula are capable of synthesizing carotenoids, such as β‐carotene, γ‐carotene, torulene, torularodine, and astaxanthin. These carotenoids have been shown to offer health benefits to humans, such as immune system strengthening and a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases.
