Training Rats Using Water Rewards Without Water Restriction [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
High-throughput behavioral training of rodents has been a transformative development for systems neuroscience. Water or food restriction is typically required to motivate task engagement. We hypothesized a gap between physiological water need and hedonic

Phenotypic, Anatomical, and Diel Variation in Sugar Concentration Linked to Cell Wall Invertases in Common Bean Pod Racemes under Water Restriction [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2022
The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) pod wall is essential for seed formation and to protect seeds. To address the effect of water restriction on sugar metabolism in fruits differing in sink strength under light–dark cycles, we used plants of cv.

Acute Water Supplementation Improved the Body Composition of Young Female Adults After Water Restriction of 12 h in Baoding, China: A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Insufficient intake of water may influence the balance of water in the human body. In this study, we explore the impacts of water supplementation on body composition indices among young adults after 12 h of water restriction, with the aim to determine ...

Wool cortisol is a better indicator of stress than blood cortisol in ewes exposed to heat stress and water restriction

open access: yesAnimal, 2014
This study investigated the effect of water restriction on wool and blood cortisol concentrations and water consumption patterns in heat-stressed sheep. Nine Corriedale female sheep (average BW=43±6.5 kg) were individually fed diets based on maintenance ...

Physiological and behavioral basis for the successful adaptation of goats to severe water restriction under hot environmental conditions

open access: yesAnimal, 2016
Among domestic ruminants, goats are renowned for their ability to tolerate water deprivation, water restriction and energy restriction. However, some basic questions regarding their ability to endure water restriction under heat stress are still open ...
