Indirect selection criteria against clean wool colour in Corriedale sheep and their effects on wool production traits

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2002
The potential of greasy wool colour subjective assessment Visual Colour Score (VCS) and the yellow predictive test (YPC) as indirect selection criteria for reduction of clean wool colour (CWC) in Corriedale sheep was examined.

Effects of extended grazing during mid, late or throughout pregnancy, and winter shearing of housed ewes, on ewe and lamb performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
peer-reviewedA flock of March-lambing ewes was used to evaluate the effects of (i) extended (deferred, winter) grazing of pasture during mid, late or throughout pregnancy, and (ii) winter shearing of ewes housed during mid and late pregnancy, on lamb ...

Climatic origin and plasticity shape emergence timing and fitness in bees and wasps under experimental climate regimes

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1461-1474, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate warming threatens the persistence of insect populations by forcing them to adjust their phenology—responses that may be constrained by local adaptation and involve physiological trade‐offs.

The Dairy Ruminant Gut Microbiome: Profile, Responsiveness to Seasonality and Impact on Milk Quality

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
The dairy ruminant gut microbiome that is shaped by host and diet is affected by seasonality and rearing. These factors can impact dairy productivity and milk quality potentially through the gut microbiota. ABSTRACT The gut microbiome (GM) and particularly the rumen microbiome (RM) affect the ruminant health and they are associated with milk quality ...

From Purpose to Persistence: How Intentional Introductions by Humans Influence Ecological Niches of Non‐Native Plants

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The intentional or unintentional transport of non‐native plants is key to overcoming geographic barriers. However, it remains unclear whether such introduction pathways associate with overcoming environmental barriers, which is key for successful invasion.

Cold hardiness dynamics predict budbreak and associated low‐temperature threats in grapevine

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2203-2220, May 2026.
Summary Dormant buds of temperate woody perennial plants must attain cold hardiness to survive winters and timely lose it in spring to break bud while avoiding damage from low temperatures and late frosts. Therefore, we asked: Can a cold hardiness model be used to predict budbreak?
