(Japan Monkey CentreInuyama AichiJapão, 1994)
Does digestion rate affect diet selection? A study in Octodon degus, a generalist herbivorous rodent
(Springer Verlag, 1998)
Dietary chemistry and an animal digestive physiology should be considered in any explanation of behavioral patterns of food use, as both influence dietary preference. In the degu Octodon degus (Molina, 1782), a generalist ...
Cost and energy density of diet in Brazil, 2008-2009
(CADERNOS SAUDE PUBLICARIO DE JANIERO, 2012)
This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the cost and energy density of diet consumed in Brazilian households. Data from the Brazilian Household Budget Survey (POF 200812009) were used to identify the main ...
Does food abundance determine the diet of the Puna Rhea (Rhea tarapacensis) in the Austral Puna desert in Argentina?
(Csiro Publishing, 2017-03)
The Puna Rhea (Rhea tarapacensis) is a large, flightless herbivorous bird found in the Andes Mountains of four countries, namely Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Peru. Despite its ample distribution range, little is known ...
Free diet selection by broilers as influenced by dietary macronutrient ratio and corticosterone supplementation. 1. Diet selection, organ weights, and plasma metabolites
(2003-01-01)
Male broiler chickens (aged 21 d) were allowed to chose freely for 14 d between three diets in which only one specific macronutrient (protein, lipid, or carbohydrate) was isocalorically substituted for one other macronutrient, ...

Head shape evolution in Tropidurinae lizards: does locomotion constrain diet?
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2008)
Different components of complex integrated systems may be specialized for different functions, and thus the selective pressures acting on the system as a whole may be conflicting and can ultimately constrain organismal ...
Is red spotted green frog (Hypsiboas punctatus, Anura: Hylidae) selecting its preys? The importance of prey availability
(Revista de Biología Tropical, 2009-09)
The study of the feeding ecology of amphibians is an old issue in herpetology. Notwithstanding, the lack of food resources data in many studies of amphibians feeding has lead to partial understanding of frog feeding ...
Partitioning the relative fitness effects of diet and trophic morphology in the threespine stickleback
(Evolutionary Ecology Ltd, 2013)
Influence of diets supplemented with tryptophan on self-balancing, feed intake and productive performance in white cachama (Piaractus brachypomus)
(Univ Caldas, 2016-01-01)
This study evaluated the ability of juvenile white Pirapitinga to select food with different tryptophan content in order to self-balance the amino acid intake using information originated from the food source. Therefore, ...
