Modern baleen whales (Mysticeti), the largest animals on Earth, arose from small ancestors around 36.4 million years ago (Ma). True gigantism is thought to have arisen late in mysticete history, with species exceeding 10...

Intensive dairy sheep production systems, which represent a substantial and growing portion of the global livestock sector, present significant behavioral and welfare challenges for lambs. This review aims to summarize a...

This study employed hepatic transcriptional changes to catalogue signature genes associated with divergent residual average daily gain (RADG) phenotypes in crossbred beef steers. A total of 108 crossbred beef steers (ave...

This study investigated the impact of increased vitamin E and nutrient intake during early gestation on reproductive performance in sows. Thirty first-parity sows (Landrace × Yorkshire × Duroc) with an average initial ...

IntroductionWeaning from artificial milk feeding represents a critical transition in intensively reared dairy lambs, involving dietary change, relocation, and social reorganization, all of which may compromise welfare, i...

The main concepts presented in this review are that sleep is not a function but a state diverse from the waking one. A lot of physiologic functions are carried out during sleep, cardiovascular, respiratory, endocrine, se...
