Dangerous Traps: Anhingas Mistake Anthropogenic Debris For Prey Fish At An Urban Site In South-eastern Brazil
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia, 2016)
Forage provision is more affected by droughts in arid and semi-arid than in mesic rangelands
(Wiley, 2022-06)
Droughts are projected to increase in magnitude, frequency and duration in the near future. In rangelands, the provision of valuable ecosystem services such as forage supply for livestock productivity is intimately linked ...
Mechanism of leaf‐cutting ant colony suppression by fipronil used in attractive toxic baits
(Pest Management Science, 2018)
The influence of past experience on wasp choice related to foraging behavior
(Wiley, 2013-12)
Memory has been little studied in social wasps. Vespula germanica (Fab.) (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) frequently revisits nondepleted food sources, making several trips between the resource and the nest. In this study, we ...
Warming and water deficit impact leaf photosynthesis and decrease forage quality and digestibility of a C4 tropical grass
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019-02-01)
Global warming is predicted to cause more intense extreme events such as heat waves, flooding and severe droughts, producing significant effects on agriculture. In tropics, climate change will severely impact livestock ...
Efeito da cultura do nabo forrageiro na descompactação do solo
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáFrancisco BeltraoBrasilEngenharia AmbientalUTFPR, 2018-11-29)
Agricultural practices and the intensive use of heavy machinery cause changes in the physical structure of the soil, and problems related to soil compaction, due to degradation of physical quality, and negative effects on ...
Supering Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera, Apidae) beehives impairs honey production and biomarker genes
(São Paulo - Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz", 2021-05-17)
For honey production, beekeepers add one or more supers to the hives to allow honeybees to store their products. However, the increase in hive space can affect the social and health organization in the colony, promoting ...
Urochloa brizantha cultivated in aluminum-toxic soil: Changes in plant growth and ultrastructure of root and leaf tissues
(Centro Int Agricultura Tropical-ciat, 2021-01-01)
Brazilian soils destined for fodder production are infertile and acidic and contain toxic levels of aluminum (Al), which cause a reduction in growth of the root system and aerial plant parts. The main aim of the present ...
Contrasting response of two Lotus corniculatus L. accessions to combined waterlogging–saline stress
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-03)
Waterlogging and salinity impair crop growth and productivity worldwide, with their combined effects being larger than the additive effects of the two stresses separately. Here, a common forage tetraploid Lotus corniculatus ...
