Resultats de les noves varietats de triticale
Les varietats amb un millor comportament productiu al litoral de Girona tant en l’assaig tractat com sense tractar amb fungicida han estat VALEROSO, RGT COPLAC, RGT BELLOTAC i LG RELAMPAGO amb cinc anys de dades. A la zona ...
Resultats de les noves varietats d'ordi d'hivern
Les noves varietats comercials d’ordi d’hivern assajades les darreres campanyes no han mostrat diferències significatives en producció en cap de les zones productores. Tot i així RUBIANA i LG AITANA són les que han mostrat ...
Resultats de les noves varietats de blat tou d'hivern
Les darreres campanyes s’han assajat les noves varietats comercials de blat tou d’hivern a l’interior de Girona, als secans frescals i als secans semifrescals. Tot i que en general les seves produccions no han diferit de ...
Resultats de les noves varietats de pèsol proteaginós de primavera
Als regadius de Lleida, els darrers vuit anys d’assajos, ASTRONAUTE, KAYANNE i MYTHIC han presentat una producció significativament més elevada que BAGOO, i amb quatre anys KAMELEON i GUINDA també s’han adaptat molt bé. ...
Resultats de les noves varietats de blat tou de primavera
S’ha observat un comportament diferent de les varietats en funció de la zona d’assaig. Al litoral de Girona han mostrat molt bon comportament productiu RGT MACARENO, RGT PISTOLO i LG ANCIA; amb tres anys de dades també ...
Apple Dwarfing Rootstock Cold Hardiness: Comparing Performance of The Geneva® Series Rootstocks in Cold and Mild Winter Conditions
Apples typically have sufficient cold hardiness to survive most winters in New York. However, as climate changes and winters become milder, trees may not receive the right temperature cues for maximum protection and ...
The Use of ReTain to Improve Fruit Set of Apples
Apple varieties like 'SweeTango' or 'Evercrisp', exhibit an increase in flower produced ethylene between flowering and 10 mm fruit size, which causes excessive flower or fruit drop. Experiments with both varieties showed ...
Resultats de les noves varietats d'ordi de primavera
No s’han observat diferències significatives en producció entre les varietats assajades els darrers anys. Al litoral de Girona però, els rendiments més elevats s’han vist en RGT ASTEROID, KWS CHRISSIE, KLARINETTE i RGT ...
The role of human–pig interactions in modulating gut microbiota, stress, and performance
Background The microbiota‒gut‒brain axis modulates pigs’ stress response, behavior, and overall welfare. Stressful management practices can disrupt gut microbiota (GM), negatively impacting pigs' health and welfare. This ...
Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in broiler chicken livers: High prevalence and surface contamination, but low load in inner tissue
Thermophilic Campylobacter spp. are the main cause of gastrointestinal illness in humans through contaminated food. Poultry and poultry products are the main sources of Campylobacter infection. Epidemiological data on ...
The role of innate immune responses against two strains of PEDV (S INDEL and non-S INDEL) in newborn and weaned piglets inoculated by combined orogastric and intranasal routes
Introduction: Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) is a severe gastrointestinal disease in swine caused by PED virus (PEDV), leading to significant economic losses worldwide. Newborn piglets are especially vulnerable, with ...
A human-ACE2 knock-in mouse model for SARS-CoV-2 infection recapitulates respiratory disorders but avoids neurological disease associated with the transgenic K18-hACE2 model
Animal models have been instrumental in elucidating the pathogenesis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and in testing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines and therapeutics. ...
Pyrrolizidine alkaloid intoxication outbreaks in fattening pigs associated with drought-related feed contamination
Background Pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) intoxication is a well-documented condition in livestock, resulting from the ingestion of forage and grain contaminated with PA-producing plants. These phytotoxins primarily affect ...
Porcine circovirus 3 subclinical infection in wild boar is not associated with systemic lesions
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) is known to endemically circulate in domestic pigs, both in intensive and extensive settings. This virus occasionally causes reproductive and/or postnatal disease, although its full impact is ...
Bycatch in Cetaceans from the North-Western Mediterranean Sea: Retrospective Study of Lesions and Utility of Bycatch Criteria
Bycatch (accidental capture in fisheries) is the most common cause of death of small delphinids worldwide. Determining bycatch to be the primary cause of death in a free-ranging stranded cetacean relies on the detection ...
Protection and diagnostic interference induced by heat-inactivated, phage-inactivated and live vaccine prototypes against animal tuberculosis
Introduction: Vaccination emerges as a promising cost-eective tool to reduce the impact and spread of animal tuberculosis, especially in regions where testand-slaughter eradication strategy is socioeconomically unfeasible ...
Evaluation of the Dose of African Swine Fever Virus Required to Establish Infection in Pigs Following Oral Uptake
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is known to be very stable within a protein-rich environment and indirect virus transmission can be mediated via oral uptake of different materials. However, experimental studies in pigs ...
Soil-atmosphere terpene exchanges in the tropical forest of French Guiana with nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer application
Background and aims Tropical forest soils can act as sources or sinks of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), especially terpenes, yet the impact of long-term nutrient deposition on these fluxes remains unclear. ...
Mixed management in growing and finishing pigs: impacts on social behavior and judgment bias
Intensive pig production practices may shape cognition and behavior. We evaluated whether repeated regrouping (mixing) and gender (gilts vs. barrows) affect social interactions, fear-related responses, and affective state. ...
