Genetic evaluation of growth and reproductive traits in Nelore cattle under humid tropical conditionsNARA Subscribed
Assessing the genetic variability of economically important traits is key to guiding selection strategies, and monitoring its changes over time provides critical support for decision-making. The study aimed to estimate genetic parameters and evaluate genetic and phenotypic trends for growth and reproductive traits in Nelore cattle raised under humid tropical conditions. Growth traits included weaning weight ( n = 1266), yearli...
Marine litter is a notable challenge to crabs in highly impacted mangrove areas: a case study in Guanabara Bay, SE BrazilNARA Subscribed
Mangroves represent a particularly vulnerable coastal ecosystem to the problem of marine litter. However, research addressing the impact of macroscopic litter on mangrove crabs remains limited. The aim of this study was to characterize diversity, abundance, and size of the semi-terrestrial crabs in a mangrove swamp heavily affected by macroscopic marine litter, in Southeastern Brazil. It was also aimed at verifying any potenti...
Purpose Systematic collection and analysis of antimicrobial resistance data from key bacterial pathogens is essential to contribute to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The aim of this work was to survey the drug resistance on clinically relevant organisms stratified according to age, gender, clinical specimens and facilities. Methods Microbiological data were collected from 55 centers across 24 states in Mexico between...
Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers. One such technique is passive acoustic monitoring, which is commonly coupled with automatic identification of animal sp...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
