Effects of restricted periods of feed access on feed intake, digestion, behaviour, heat energy, and performance of Alpine goats
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-03-13)
Fifty Alpine goats at 125 +/- 3.0 days-in-milk were given access in Calan gate feeders to a 40% forage diet for 12 wk continuously (Control), during daytime (Day) or night (Night), or for 2 or 4h/day after milking in the ...
Experimental intoxication of guinea pigs with Ipomoea carnea: Behavioural and neuropathological alterations
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc, 2013-08-29)
Ipomoea carnea is a toxic plant that affects goats, with symptoms being characterised by nervous disorders and death. Swainsonine and calystegines are the principal toxic components isolated from I. carnea, which also ...
Does season affect fire behaviour in the Cerrado?
(2017-01-01)
Fire has played an important role in the plant dynamics and diversity of the Cerrado for millions of years. We evaluated fire behaviour in different fire seasons in areas of an open savanna, providing information for fire ...
Frugivore Behavioural Details Matter for Seed Dispersal: a Multi-Species Model for Cantabrian Thrushes and Trees
(Public Library Science, 2013-06-11)
Animal movement and behaviour is fundamental for ecosystem functioning. The process of seed dispersal by frugivorous animals is a showcase for this paradigm since their behaviour shapes the spatial patterns of the earliest ...

Chemical transfer of warning information in non-injured fish
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2000-06-01)
In this study we describe pacus, Piaractus mesopotamicus, detecting the presence of a predator by conspecific alerting pheromone. Moreover, we investigate whether this chemical information indicates the presence of a ...
N-acetylcysteine treatment blocks the development of ethanol-induced behavioural sensitization and related ΔFosB alterations
(2016-11-01)
Ethanol addiction is a serious public health problem that still needs more effective pharmacological treatment. A key factor in the development and maintenance of this disease is the advent of neuroadaptations in the ...
Modelling consumer behaviour: a comparison between aids and the stone-geary models
(1996)
This work responds to the question: Why are the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) and its quadratic extension, the QUAIDS model better ways ofmodelling consumer behaviour than the StoneGeary' Models? Thus, the work shall ...
Hyperactivity induced by the dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonist quinpirole is attenuated by inhibitors of endocannabinoid degradation in mice
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-04)
The present study was designed to investigate the effect of pharmacological inhibition of endocannabinoid degradation on behavioural actions of the dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonist quinpirole in male C57Bl/6J mice. In ...
