Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManaging Internal Parasites of Small Ruminants using Medicinal Plants a Review on Alternative Remedies, Efficacy Evaluation Techniques and Conservational StrategiesWandile Nikelo, Maliviwe Mpayipheli, Lyndy McGawThroughout the world, internal parasites are a majorhindrance to small ruminant production. The most common internal parasites ingrazing small ruminants are likely to be gastrointestinal nematodes. They causea reduction in live-weight gain, wool growth, poor reproductive performance,and increased production costs and thus hamper global food security.Pharmaceutical control continues to be the main measure used to manage orcontrol internal parasites, however … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 6 Oct 2022 · 6,847 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractProductive and Biological Features of Kazakh Fine-Wool Sheep in the Conditions of the Almaty RegionKairat Alimgozhaevich Iskakov, Beibit Turganbekovich Kulatayev, Gulshad Makhambetovna Zhumagaliyeva, Pere Miquel Pares CasanovaKazakh fine-wool sheep bred in semiarid and desert zones of the Kazakhstan South-East are most widely spread in the Republic. However, most sheep do not satisfy the respective requirements of the breed in terms of productivity and especially reproductive capacity. Consequently, increasing the breeding performance and yield of commercial lambs is one of the most urgent issues in fine-wool sheep … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2017 · 8,261 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVisceral Pain: Basic Research Concepts and Therapeutic InterventionsVictor V. ChabanThe accumulation of nociceptive diseases that limit normal body functions is a major risk factor for a disability, and visceral pain is one of the most prevalent human health problems. Additionally, many pain-associated diseases are accompanied by the concomitant decline in cognitive and motor performance. The complex interplay and balance between diverse signal transduction mediators, genetic background and environmental factors … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 26 Aug 2015 · 7,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPorcine Respiratory and Reproductive Syndrome Virus Vaccinology: A Review for Commercial VaccinesV. G. PapatsirosPorcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) since its appearance in Europe in the early 1990’s has resulted in tremendous economic losses. Under field conditions vaccination is one of the most efficient strategies for the prevention and control of PRRS. The aim of this study is to perform the PRRSV vaccinology regarding current status of commercial vaccines in Europe. There are … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2012 · 8,123 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Garcinia kola Seed on Sexual Behavior and Testis Physiology in Wistar RatsJonah Sydney Aprioku, Victor Nwachukwu, Blessing Ukamaka Okeke et al.Garcina kola seed is believed by some to enhance male sexual performance but existing scientific data show divergent results. In this study, the sexual and reproductive influence of ethanol (70%) seed extract of G. kola was evaluated in Wistar rats. Adult male rats were gavaged with 0, 50, 100, 200 or 300 mg kg-1 day-1 of extract for 30 days … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2018 · 13,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping QTLs Linked to Physio-Morphological and Plant Production Traits under Drought Stress in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) in the Target EnvironmentS. Michael Gomez, S. Satheesh Kumar, P. Jeyaprakash et al.Drought stress is a major constraint for rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and yield stability in rainfed ecosystems. Identifying genomic regions (QTLs) contributing in drought resistance will help to develop rice cultivars suitable for water-limiting environments through marker-assisted breeding. QTLs linked to physio-morphological and plant production traits under drought stress in the field were mapped by evaluating 177 F6 recombinant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 14,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProduction and Reproduction of Primiparous Guinea Pigs Concerning Lysine LevelsYasmeen Camila Vargas-Jauja, Karin Marleny Casilla-Huallpa, Liz Beatriz Chino-Velasquez et al.The development of breeding animals is essential to ensure the productivity of guinea pigs, so an adequate supply of nutrients is required. However, information on their nutritional requirements is limited, particularly with regard to amino acids such as lysine, wich affects their productive performance. We evaluated the effects of dietary lysine levels (0.84, 1.01, 1.18, and 1.34%) on prim parous … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 28 May 2025 · 5,467 accessesView PDFCite
