Effect of a long-term exposure to concentrated sucrose and maltodextrin solutions on the preference, appetence, feed intake and growth performance of post-weaned piglets
(Elsevier Inc., 2015)
© 2015 Elsevier Inc. Commercial pigs display an innate attraction for sweet taste compounds. However, the impact of long-term availability to supplementary carbohydrate solutions on their general feeding behavior has not ...
Feeding preference of the larvae of Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) and Ravinia belforti (Prado e Fonseca) (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) concerning different diets
(Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Instituto Oswaldo Cruz., 2020)
Effects of Introduced Plants on Diet and Seed Preferences of Pogonomyrmex carbonarius (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in the Patagonian Steppe
(Entomological Society of America, 2019-06)
Invasive species may interact with resident species and disrupt previously established interactions, with effects on the whole community. If introduced seeds are selectively consumed by native granivores, this could limit ...

Preference for high-fat diet is developed by young Swiss CD1 mice after short-term feeding and is prevented by NMDA receptor antagonists
(Elsevier, 2014)
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic that is increasing at an alarming rate. One of its causes is the increased
availability and consumption of diets rich in fat. In the present study, we investigated the effects of ...
A combination of rules govern fruit trait preference by frugivorous bat and bird species: nutrients, defence and size
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Several hypotheses explain how sensory, anatomical and physiological constraints drive fruit preference in frugivores. Optimal diet theory (ODT) states that frugivores make decisions based on the energy contained in food. ...

Exploring food preferences and the limits of feeding flexibility of seed-eating desert birds
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-10)
Habitat degradation caused by cattle grazing may be a serious threat for seed-eating birds because the availability of beneficial seeds usually diminishes in grazed areas. Ecologically plastic species might, however, ...
