The Incidence Of Coccidia In Broilers Is Increasing
Sun, 31 August 2008
Coccidia are single-celled intestinal parasites that currently represent one of the greatest challenges to the broiler industry.

Predicting Infection Risk Of Airborne Foot-And-Mouth Disease
Fri, 29 August 2008
Foot-and-mouth is a highly contagious disease of global socio-economic importance. In countries considered disease-free the control and eradication of any outbreak is reliant upon prompt detection of infected premises. Our paper presents a practical method for predicting airborne infections and prioritising farms for ins ...
Local Adaptation In Brown Trout Early Life-History Traits: Implications For Climate Chan ...
Thu, 28 August 2008
The ability of organisms to adapt to global warming is an issue of concern. Four brown trout populations in Denmark were studied, which spawn in rivers experiencing different temperature conditions during the time of incubation of eggs and embryos. By rearing fry from the populations in a common environmental setting, we d ...
Social Learning Strategies And Predation Risk: Minnows Copy Only When Using Private Info ...
Thu, 28 August 2008
Animals that live in changeable environments need information about their surroundings if they are to operate efficiently. They can gather information by exploring their surroundings themselves. This yields accurate information, but uses time and energy and can expose the animal to its predators. Alternatively they can gat ...
