Is a cannibal different from its conspecifics? A behavioural, morphological, muscular and retinal structure study with pikeperch juveniles under farming conditions
(Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2020-02-05)Cannibalism is defined as the act of killing and consuming the whole, or major part, of an individual belonging to the same species, irrespective of its stage of development. Intra-cohort cannibalism ... -
Is it possible to store spotted wolffish (Anarhichas minor) sperm by refrigeration?
(Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2020-06-02)Spotted wolffish Anarhichas minor reproduction in captivity is dependent on in vitro fertilization. However, it is often challenging to acquire sufficient fresh sperm to fertilize the eggs that are ... -
Is Technical Efficiency Affected by Farmers’ Preference for Mitigation and Adaptation Actions against Climate Change? A Case Study in Northwest Mexico
(Sustainability, 2019-06-14)Climate change has adverse effects on agriculture, decreasing crop quality and productivity. This makes it necessary to implement adaptation and mitigation strategies that contribute to the maintenance ... -
Is There a Link between Vomeronasalitis and Aggression in Stable Social Groups of Female Pigs?
(Animals, 2022-01-26)The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a bilateral chemosensory structure strongly involved in animal behaviour, thanks to its sensory epithelium (VNSE) that detects pheromones. Experimental VNO lesions can ... -
Isolation, identification, and gene expression analysis of the main digestive enzymes during ontogeny of the Neotropical catfish Pseudoplatystoma punctifer (Castelnau, 1855)
(Aquaculture, 2021-06-09)The ontogeny of the digestive capacities in fish is species-specific and its knowledge is essential for understanding the nutritional requirements of fish larvae. While the Amazon basin contains the ... -
Joint QTL mapping and gene expression analysis identify positional candidate genes influencing pork quality traits
(Scientific Reports, 2017-01-05)Meat quality traits have an increasing importance in the pig industry because of their strong impact on consumer acceptance. Herewith, we have combined phenotypic and microarray expression data to ... -
kernInt: A Kernel Framework for Integrating Supervised and Unsupervised Analyses in Spatio-Temporal Metagenomic Datasets
(Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021-01-28)The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies allowed relative quantification of microbiome communities and their spatial and temporal variation. In recent years, supervised learning (i.e., ... -
Key Factors Determining the Behavior of Pathogens in Dry-Cured Ham after High Pressure Processing
(Applied Sciences, 2022-12-12)High pressure processing (HPP) inactivates pathogens and increases the safety of ready-to-eat meat products. The high-pressure lethality and the behavior of the surviving cells after HPP depends on ... -
Killing for purposes other than slaughter: poultry
(EFSA Journal, 2019-11-13)Poultry of different ages may have to be killed on-farm for purposes other than slaughter (in which slaughtering is defined as being for human consumption) either individually or on a large scale ... -
Kinetics of immune responses elicited after three mRNA COVID-19 vaccine doses in predominantly antibody-deficient individuals
(iScience, 2022-10-28)Mass vaccination campaigns reduced COVID-19 incidence and severity. Here, we evaluated the immune responses developed in SARS-CoV-2-uninfected patients with predominantly antibody-deficiencies (PAD) ... -
