pattern of feeding and reproduction of amblypharyngodon mola (hamilton, 1822) was studied in two floodplain lakes of north 24 parganas districts of west bengal in india during 2011.  results indicated that the fish exhibited a predominantly herbivorous diet with algae as the main content of gut. a long, thin walled, coiled gut and closely packed filamentous gill racker suited this feeding habit...

a total of 240, one-day-old quail chicks (coturnix coturnix japonica) were used to study the effects of artichoke leaf meal (alm) and vitamin e in diet on growth performance, ileal microbial populations and intestinal morphology in a 42-d trial. this experiment was performed as a completely randomized design with 4 replicates of 15 quails each, using a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement with diet and ...

The determination of the most straightforward evidence for the existence of the Superworld requires a guide for non-experts (especially experimental physicists) for them to make their own judgement on the value of such predictions. For this purpose we review the most basic results of Super-Grand unification in a simple and clear way. We focus the attention on two specific models and their predi...

External exposed radiation may play an important role in pathogens of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), although is thought to arise due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The result is dysregulated immune responses due to alteration in the gut microbiota population and the subsequent development of gut inflammation. It has recently been shown that the effect of ioni...

FoxA transcription factors are critical regulators of gut development and function. FoxA proteins specify gut fate during early embryogenesis, drive gut differentiation and morphogenesis at later stages, and affect gut function to mediate nutritional responses. The level of FoxA is critical for these roles, yet we know relatively little about regulators for this family of proteins. To address t...
