This study demonstrates that nonlinear machine learning models, specifically Bayesian Neural Networks and Random Forests, outperform conventional linear and support vector methods in predicting natural log-transformed somatic cell counts in Holstein cattle using routine farm data, although predictive accuracy declines in cows with more than four lactations.
This study analyzes a decade of surveillance data from Kilombero, Tanzania, to demonstrate that minimum temperature is the primary climatic driver of yellow sugarcane aphid infestation and that integrating local weather observations with variety and ratoon records can optimize pest and disease management for sustainable sugarcane production.
This study demonstrates that a hydroxyethyl cellulose coating integrating plasma-activated water-derived reactive species and oregano essential oil nanoliposomes effectively extends the shelf life of seafood by significantly delaying microbial growth and spoilage at both refrigerated and ambient temperatures.
This study demonstrates that incorporating fine wheat bran (52-mesh) at a 15% substitution level into cookies significantly enhances dietary fibre content while maintaining or even improving overall sensory acceptability and textural quality compared to coarser particles or lower substitution levels.
This study demonstrates that oleoresins derived from Nsukka yellow pepper, particularly from the seeds and whole fruit, exhibit superior extraction yields, phytochemical richness, and broad-spectrum antioxidant and antimicrobial activities compared to essential oils, highlighting their potential as effective natural preservatives for clean-label food applications.
This case report documents the rare concurrent infection of a Nellore Brown ewe with *Schistosoma nasale* and *Schistosoma spindale*, highlighting the necessity of examining both nasal discharge and faecal samples for accurate diagnosis despite the animal's subsequent death.
This study introduces a novel two-dimensional matrix model to quantify tree architecture regularity across macroscopic, branch, and local detail dimensions in 206 *Malus* germplasms, revealing that regularity declines from local details to overall structure during domestication and that species maintain higher regularity than cultivars, thereby providing a quantitative framework for the systematic classification and directional breeding of woody ornamental plants.
This study demonstrates that elevated water temperatures and moderate water velocities significantly alter the mineral composition of farmed Atlantic salmon, particularly causing a marked reduction in iodine concentrations, which may impact the nutritional value of the fish under a warming climate.
This study utilized GC-FID analysis to characterize the seasonal variations in the fatty acid profiles of *Tetragonula iridipennis* honey from Nagaland, India, revealing distinct winter and summer compositions rich in beneficial Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-7 fatty acids that underscore the product's significant therapeutic and nutritional potential.
This study demonstrates that while *Bacillus* isolates effectively suppress olive anthracnose caused by *Colletotrichum* spp. in fruit, *Trichoderma* species show superior antagonism against soilborne *Fusarium* pathogens in vitro, suggesting a targeted, sustainable approach to managing these distinct olive diseases.
