Abstract The rapid growth of biological resources and associated research outputs has increased the complexity of resource discovery, access, and reuse across heterogeneous repositories. However, fragmented metadata sche...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Chronic inflammation contributes to various chronic diseases, emphasizing the need for reliable biomarkers for early detection and understanding its causes. Measuring chronic inflammation pos...

Abstract Variations in physical toughness between muscles and animals are a function of growth rate and extend of collagen type I and III. The current study was designed to investigate the ability of growth rate, collage...

The Nagoya Protocol on Access and Beneft Sharing (ABS) was implemented to further develop the third objective of the Convention on Biological Diversity, the fair and equitable sharing of benefts arising out of the utiliz...

Abstract To accurately acquire deep-sea live biological samples, a hydraulic suction macro-biological pressure-retaining sampler (HSMPS) was designed to achieve active capture of seafloor biological by a suction pump. Th...

The decline in biodiversity and, as a consequence, in genetic resources of farm animals worldwide as a result of the growing anthropogenic impact is recognized as a global problem that requires an immediate solution. The...

Background: Forests are used for multiple purposes worldwide, which often include timber harvest, firewood extraction and livestock raising. An excessive pressure on multipurpose systems may decrease soil cover, promotin...

Abstract Insects have long been consumed by humans as a supplemental protein source, and interest in entomophagy has rapidly increased in recent years as a potential sustainable resource in the face of environmental chal...

Abstract Rabbit meat has high nutritional and dietetic characteristics, but its consumption rate is comparatively lower than other meat types. The nutritional profile of rabbit meat, by comparison with beef, pork, and po...

Crop wild relatives (CWR) are plant taxa closely related to crops and are a source of high genetic diversity that can help adapt crops to the impacts of global change, particularly to meet increasing consumer demand in t...

Coastal regions and surface waters are among the fundamental biological and social development resources worldwide. For this reason, it is essential to thoroughly monitor these regions to determine and characterize their...

Abstract Colostrum is the first mammary secretion produced after parturition and represents a biologically active fluid essential for neonatal survival, immune maturation, and early growth. Despite its importance, breed-...

Identifying the factors that promote the success of biological invasions is a key pursuit in ecology. To date, the link between animal personality and invasiveness has rarely been studied. Here, we examined in the labora...

The critical factor in restoration and conservation of urban streams and their catchments is the human population, however the most of studies of urban ecosystems do not present social descriptors as concrete variables o...

ABSTRACT Since prehistoric times, indigenous communities have relied on fish as a staple source of protein for their subsistence. In most cases, fish is the sole source of income and of animal protein for the communities...

Plants constitute the foundation of life on Earth, providing oxygen, food, and ecosystem services essential for human well-being. At the same time, they are among the most threatened components of biodiversity, with curr...

This article assesses the current state of botanical collections in Argentine herbaria, with a particular focus on data and image digitization, collection management, and the publication of information through publicly a...

Plants frequently encounter diverse abiotic stresses, which require precise transcriptional regulation to maintain basic survival plasticity. The BES1 transcription factor family, a key component of brassinosteroid (BR) ...

Introduction According to modern scholars (N. Maslova, B. Astafiev), one of the important reasons for the global planetary crisis, including modern educational system in particular, is violation of the conformity of natu...

Because of their physical,chemical, geological and biologicalcharacteristics sea integrates a verycomplex and interesting ecosystem. Forthis reason research should also beinterdisciplinary as well asmultidisciplinary in ...

Caatinga is the most important biome for the livestock in the Brazilian semi-arid region. This review paper aimed to present information on different forage aspects of caatinga vegetation for ruminant feeding. Caatinga v...

Abstract Many sulfated polysaccharides (SPSs) possess useful physicochemical properties and biological activities and are widely used in industry. Currently, major SPSs are derived from livestock and marine organisms. To...
