Patterns of feeding and growth of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. in the marine environment are critical to understanding how observed declines in recruitment may reflect warming or other oceanic drivers. The isotopic composition of scales can provide insight into differences in marine feeding location and possibly temperature regime. The authors us...

Background/Objectives: The negative energy balance activaties of spontaneous lipolysis. This may promotes inflammation within the adipose tissue. The aim of the study was to explain the development of inflammation during increased lactogenesis. It was hypothesized that lipolysis contributes synthesis of interleukin-6 and plasminogen. Methods: The s...

Wildlife contend with seasonal fluctuations in resource availability and have adapted survival and reproductive strategies to overcome resource limitations. Many northern ungulates are adapted to a dynamic nutritional landscape and rely on somatic reserves accumulated during the short growing season. Moose (Alces alces) populations in the boreal fo...

The gut microbiota-immune-brain axis is a feedback network which influences diverse physiological processes and plays a pivotal role in overall health and wellbeing. Although research in humans and laboratory mice has shed light into the associations and mechanisms governing this communication network, evidence of such interactions in wild, especia...

Reproduction is known to be energetically and physiologically costly. Consequently, individuals in good condition are assumed to invest substantial resources in reproduction, while those in poor condition are unable to do so. This is particularly relevant in insects, where reproduction is a nutrient-limited process for males and females and is larg...

This study investigates the impact of water faecal contamination on highly threatened European brook lamprey larvae (Lampetra planeri). Water samples and the midgut contents of lampreys collected from a small lowland river upstream (site 1) and downstream from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) discharge (site 2) were analysed to check how the fae...

Nutrient requirements for lactation often lead to a negative energy balance accompanied by reduced body condition and fertility in cattle. A previous study identified an increased abundance of serum metabolites associated with tissue mobilization and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in postpartum beef cows with a thin versus moderate body c...

Nutritional status plays a vital role in regulating ovary activity. This regulation is mediated by the hypothalamus–pituitary–gonad axis and by effects exerted directly on the ovary. Therefore, to achieve the best reproductive performance, it is essential to know how the nutritional status affects the secretion of GnRH, gonadotrophins, and sex ster...

This article proposes an algorithm that allows the selection of prognostic variables from a set of 21 variables describing the health statuses of male and female students. The set of variables could be divided into two groups—body condition indicators and body activity indicators. For this purpose, we propose applying the multiple criteria decision...

The St. Lawrence Estuary (SLE) belugas (Quebec, Canada) are an endangered population whose numbers remain low despite ongoing conservation efforts. Multiple anthropogenic factors and changing environmental conditions are thought to have contributed to the recent 20-year decline in blubber fatty acid concentrations reported in stranded SLE belugas. ...
