Predictive Genomic Analyses Inform the Basis for Vitamin Metabolism and Provisioning in Bacteria-Arthropod Endosymbioses

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
The requirement of vitamins for core metabolic processes creates a unique set of pressures for arthropods subsisting on nutrient-limited diets. While endosymbiotic bacteria carried by arthropods have been widely implicated in vitamin provisioning, the ...

Effects of stocking density on the performance of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in small‐scale lettuce‐Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) aquaponic system

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 458-469, December 2022., 2022
Graphical Abstract : Aquaponics, hydroponics, stocking density. Abstract Aquaponics incorporates aquaculture with hydroponics, whose principles and operations largely remain untested. Currently, there is a knowledge gap on the performance of aquaponic systems used for fish production under different stocking densities.

Quantifying vitamin D intake among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia [PDF]

arXiv
Background/Objective: Vitamin D deficiency (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration <50 nmol/L) is prevalent among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia. Alternative to sun exposure (the primary source of vitamin D), vitamin D can also be obtained from food (e.g., fish, eggs, and meat) and supplements.
