This study demonstrates that overwintered honey bee queens can be successfully shipped across Canada under appropriate temperature conditions, maintaining high reproductive quality and colony acceptance rates despite a minor reduction in sperm viability for those exposed to prolonged cold.
This study of autumn-sown sugar beet in Iran reveals that management factors, particularly planting date and growth duration, exert a significantly greater influence on sugar extraction coefficient than cultivar selection, highlighting the importance of optimizing agronomic practices over genetic replacement to improve production efficiency.
This study utilizes a triple test cross design to identify specific soybean parents and hybrids, such as AS 40 × Himso 1685 and Hara Soya × JS 335, that exhibit superior yield, nutritional quality, and multi-disease resistance for cultivation in the Northwestern Himalayan Region.
This study demonstrates that the stability and encapsulation efficiency of resveratrol in medium-chain triglyceride oil-in-water emulsions are significantly enhanced by utilizing smaller droplet sizes and maintaining acidic to neutral pH conditions at refrigerated temperatures, while degradation is accelerated by larger droplets, alkaline pH, elevated temperatures, and UV light exposure.
This study of smallholder dairy-forage systems in Southwestern Uganda reveals that farmers' soil fertility perceptions are primarily driven by observable physical attributes like clay content and pH levels rather than essential macronutrient concentrations, highlighting a critical need to integrate local knowledge with routine laboratory chemical testing for sustainable intensification.
This study demonstrates that the combined dietary supplementation of multi-species probiotics and mineral biochar significantly enhances growth performance, microbial nitrogen synthesis, and health indicators while reducing pathogenic bacterial counts in Holstein suckling calves.
This study demonstrates that a prime-pull vaccination regimen using an improved bivalent *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*-based formulation effectively modulates cell trafficking and induces protective memory T-cell immunity in the bovine mammary gland without compromising tissue integrity.
This study demonstrates that while single-species inoculation with *Acaulospora longula* enhances olive seedling survival and *Gigaspora rosea* promotes shoot growth, co-inoculation yields intermediate results, supporting the potential of targeted arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi applications in olive nursery production despite limitations in quantitative colonization assessment.
This paper proposes the Artisanal Fishing Score (AFS), a new certification method utilizing four analytical dimensions to distinguish small-scale fisheries from industrial ones, thereby enabling artisanal producers to overcome existing barriers and effectively communicate their sustainability to consumers.
Exposure of juvenile *Colossoma macropomum* to cellulose acetate nanoparticles induces transient, concentration- and time-dependent alterations in hematological and biochemical parameters, with partial physiological recovery observed after transferring the fish to clean water.
