Effect of chronic heat stress on gastrointestinal histology and expression of feed intake-regulatory hormones in broiler chickens [0.03%]
慢性热应激对肉鸡胃肠组织学及摄食调节激素表达的影响
M Mazzoni,M Zampiga,P Clavenzani et al.
M Mazzoni et al.
Heat stress (HS) dramatically impairs the growth performance of broiler chickens, mainly as a consequence of reduced feed intake due to the loss of appetite. This study was aimed at evaluating the alterations induced by chronic HS condition...
Feed efficiency of lactating Holstein cows is repeatable within diet but less reproducible when changing dietary starch and forage concentrations [0.03%]
乳牛在不同淀粉及粗饲料浓度的日粮下的饲喂效率重复性较低

Improving feed efficiency has become an important target for dairy farmers to produce more milk with fewer feed resources. With decreasing availability of arable land to produce feeds that are edible for human consumption, it will be import...
Review: Assessment of dairy cow welfare at pasture: measures available, gaps to address, and pathways to development of ad-hoc protocols [0.03%]
评价放牧奶牛福利的措施、需要填补的空白以及开发临时协议的途径
L Aubé,M M Mialon,E Mollaret et al.
L Aubé et al.
Pasture is generally perceived as positive for dairy cow welfare, but it nevertheless exposes cows to heat, parasites, and other challenges. This review is intended for people ready to design comprehensive protocols for assessing the welfar...
Evaluating automated infrared thermography and vulva exposure tracking as components of an estrus detection platform in a commercial dairy herd [0.03%]
评估红外热图自动化和发情期阴门暴露跟踪在商品奶牛群中的发情检测平台中的作用
H J Perez Marquez,A L Schaefer,H von Gaza et al.
H J Perez Marquez et al.
The primary objective of this study was to develop an automated infrared thermography platform (Estrus BenchMark) capable of measuring skin temperature and tail movements as a means of identifying cows in estrus. The secondary objective was...
Association between the prion protein genotype and animal performance traits in a large multibreed sheep population [0.03%]
绵羊多品种群体中prnp基因型与生长发育性状的关联分析
N McHugh,A C OBrien,T Pabiou et al.
N McHugh et al.
Genetic susceptibility to scrapie, a fatal disease of sheep and goats, is modulated by polymorphisms in the prion protein (PrP). Neither the frequency of the PrP genotypes nor their association with animal performance has been investigated ...
An imputation-based genome-wide association study for growth and fatness traits in Sujiang pigs [0.03%]
基于遗传填充的育种值评估及苏江猪生长和脂肪性状的全基因组关联分析
Pan Xu,Desen Li,Zhongping Wu et al.
Pan Xu et al.
Sujiang pigs are a synthetic breed derived from Jiangquhai, Fengjing, and Duroc pigs. In this study, we sequenced the genome of 62 pigs with a coverage depth of 10× to 20×, including 27 Sujiang and 35 founder breed pigs, and we collected ...
Ovarian transcriptome analysis of diploid and triploid rainbow trout revealed new pathways related to gonadal development and fertility [0.03%]
二倍体和三倍体虹彩鯡卵巢转录组分析揭示了新的与生殖腺发育和生育力相关的途径
J Nynca,M Słowińska,J Wiśniewska et al.
J Nynca et al.
Triploidisation represents several advantages (e.g. sterility) and therefore is routinely applied in aquaculture of several commercially important fish species, including rainbow trout. The comparative transcriptomic analysis of ovaries of ...
Fluorometric determination of isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42; 1; NADP+ dependent) in ruminant milk [0.03%]
反式茋对巴马小型猪体外培养皮肤的抗炎作用研究
T Larsen,R Rupp,N C Friggens et al.
T Larsen et al.
The enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42; 1; NADP+ dependent) located in the mammary cell cytosol mediates the synthesis of the majority of reducing equivalents for the energetically demanding milk fat and cholesterol synthesis in m...
The potential of a light spot, heat area, and novel object to attract laying hens and induce piling behaviour [0.03%]
光照、热源和新异刺激对蛋鸡的吸引作用及其诱发堆挤行为的潜力
J Winter,M J Toscano,A Stratmann
J Winter
Piling behaviour of laying hens often results in smothering or death due to suffocation. Mechanisms leading to piling are not yet understood though various potential factors have been suggested. In this experimental study, we predicted that...
