Radiographic pelvimetry in 0 to 24 month-old pacas (Agouti paca, Linnaeus, 1766)
(Arquivo Brasileiro Medicina Veterinaria Zootecnia, 2019-07-01)
The pelvimetry consists of the metric determination of the pelvis dimensions and its use is directly related to the reproduction. The cartilage closure time of the ossification centers varies according to the bone, some ...
Immune challenge but not dietary restriction affects spatial learning in the wild subterranean rodent Ctenomys talarum
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-02)
Several lines of evidence suggest that learning and triggering an immune response are both metabolically expensive and thus likely to be subject to nutritional trade-offs between them and other competing demands. Therefore, ...
