Genetic and Phenotypic Correlations Among Growth, Disease Occurrence, and Reproductive Performance From Calf to Heifer in Girolando Dairy Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Girolando breed, a cross between Holstein (Bos taurus) and Gir (Bos indicus), is the primary choice for dairy production in Brazilian tropical regions, as it combines high productive potential with adaptation to the tropical environment.

Genetic Parameters for Feed Efficiency Indicator Traits in a Rotational Crossbreed Sow Population During Lactation Period

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selection of feed efficient sows effectively converting feed into milk production and body weight gain will contribute to the overall profitability of pig farming systems. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for feed efficiency indicator traits during the sow lactation period, and to infer ...

Heritability of Productive, Reproductive and Carcass Traits in Pure‐Bred and Cross‐Bred Pigs: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritability (h2) is a key parameter in animal breeding, but its magnitude and consistency across pure‐bred (PB) and cross‐bred (CB) pig populations remain poorly understood. This study aimed to compare heritability estimates between PB and CB populations for economically relevant traits through a systematic review and meta‐analysis.

Integrated multitissue analysis reveals distinct oxidative stress responses during recovery from cold shock in the Amazonian fish Colossoma macropomum

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) is a tropical fish widely cultivated in South America. The increasing demand for this species has heightened interest in its cultivation in subtropical regions with greater thermal variability, where cold shock may induce oxidative stress. This study evaluated the effects of cold shock and subsequent recovery on

Post‐release survival, movement and marine migration of smolt‐to‐adult supplemented Atlantic Salmon

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations are declining across much of their range, prompting the use of supplementation strategies, such as smolt‐to‐adult supplementation (SAS), to enhance adult returns. However, little is known about how captivity while maturing to adulthood influences post‐release survival, behaviour and migration of ...

Intersectional Identities of Men and Their Influence on Children's Gender Socialization in Family Settings: A Systematic Review

Journal of Family Theory &Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gender socialization is a lifelong process that guides children in shaping their identities, opportunities, and perspectives during early years. Within the family environment, men hold a pivotal position, influenced by tradition, economic factors, and family structure, which significantly impacts the socialization of children.

The variability of giraffe skull morphology

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head
