Breeding bird response to adaptive multi‐paddock and continuous grazing practices in Southeastern United States by Michael J. McGraw, Steven I. Apfelbaum, Ry Thompson, Fugui Wang, Michael A. Szuter, Richard Teague, Peter Byck, Russ Conser

“…Despite significantly more unadjusted detections of confirmed breeding ecotonal species, such as Blue Grosbeak, Eastern Bluebird, Brown Thrasher, Yellow‐breasted Chat, Eastern Towhee, Loggerhead Shrike, and Field Sparrow in AMP versus CG paddocks, no significant difference was found in the ecotonal guild after adjusting densities using effective detection radii. …”

Transcriptomic and metabolomic-based revelation of the effect of fresh corn extract on meat quality of Jingyuan chicken by Jinli Tian, Yanxu Wu, Wei Zhao, Guojun Zhang, Hu Zhang, Lin Xue, Lijuan Yang, Tong Zhang, Yaling Gu, Juan Zhang

“…Meat performance measurements showed that the 0.6% FCE group of Jingyuan chickens had higher intramuscular fat (IMF), pressing loss (PL), amino acid and fatty acid contents (P < 0.05). Their breasts were collected for transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses (n=8), and 210 Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 29 Differentially expressed genes (DEMs) were obtained. …”
