KRL test to objective evaluation of welfare: sensibility to housing conditions and dietary supplements
The aim of this work was to determine the sensibility of KRL test to evaluate pig welfare in relation to different housing conditions and dietary supplements. It is reported that the response to oxidative stress could be considered as welfare parameter in swine. The KRL test allows the evaluation of total blood antioxidant activity. In the first trial we evaluated the total blood antioxidant ac...

Variable Gene Dispersal Conditions and Spatial Deforestation Patterns Can Interact to Affect Tropical Tree Conservation Outcomes
Tropical lowland rain forest (TLRF) biodiversity is under threat from anthropogenic factors including deforestation which creates forest fragments of different sizes that can further undergo various internal patterns of logging. Such interventions can modify previous equilibrium abundance and spatial distribution patterns of offspring recruitment and/or pollen dispersal. Little is known about h...
