Prediction of the total and standardized ileal digestible amino acid contents from the chemical composition of soybean meals of different origin in broilers
(Poultry Science Association, 2020-07-04)
The objective of this experiment was to determine total amino acid (TAA) content, standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of crude protein, and standardized ileal amino acid digestibility in 9 sources ...
Recombinant protein-based nanoparticles: Elucidating their inflammatory effects in vivo and their potential as a new therapeutic format
(MDPI, 2020-05-13)
Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are protein-based nanoparticles of a few hundred nanometers formed during recombinant protein production processes in different bacterial hosts. IBs contain active protein ...
Ensemble modelling of carbon fluxes in grasslands and croplands
(Elsevier, 2020-04-25)
Croplands and grasslands are agricultural systems that contribute to land–atmosphere exchanges of carbon (C). We evaluated and compared gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (RECO), net ...
Dynamic Management Zones for Irrigation Scheduling
(Elsevier, 2020-05-07)
Irrigation scheduling decision-support tools can improve water use efficiency by matching irrigation recommendations to prevailing soil and crop conditions within a season. Yet, little research is ...
Inoculum and infection dynamics of Polystigma amygdalinum in almond orchards in Spain
(American Phytopathological Society, 2020-02-20)
Red leaf blotch (RLB) disease of almond, caused by Polystigma amygdalinum, is an important foliar disease in most production regions of the Mediterranean basin and the Middle East because severe infections ...
Exploring deep learning for complex trait genomic prediction in polyploid outcrossing species
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-06)
Genomic prediction (GP) is the procedure whereby the genetic merits of untested candidates are predicted using genome wide marker information. Although numerous examples of GP exist in plants and animals, ...
Machine Learning Prediction of Crossbred Pig Feed Efficiency and Growth Rate From Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
(Frontiers Media, 2020-12-18)
This research assessed the ability of a Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression model to predict pig crossbred (CB) performance from various sources of phenotypic and genotypic information for improving ...
An improved melon reference genome with single-molecule sequencing uncovers a recent burst of transposable elements with potential impact on genes
(Frontiers Media, 2020-01-31)
The published melon (Cucumis melo L.) reference genome assembly (v3.6.1) has still 41.6 Mb (Megabases) of sequences unassigned to pseudo-chromosomes and about 57 Mb of gaps. Although different approaches ...
Breeding farm, level of feeding and presence of antibiotics in the feed influence rabbit cecal microbiota
(BMC, 2020-11-02)
Background
The effect of the production environment and different management practices in rabbit cecal microbiota remains poorly understood. While previous studies have proved the impact of the age or ...
Cork oak woodland land-cover types classification: a comparison between UAV sensed imagery and field survey
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-07-29)
This work assesses the use of aerial imagery for the vegetation cover characterization in cork oak woodlands. The study was conducted in a cork oak woodland in central Portugal during the summer of 2017. ...
