DOI: 10.1007/s11104-020-04759-y
Abstract: Aims Topographic positions within a natural forest can considerably influence litter traits, soil microbial characteristics, and nitrogen (N) mineralization, causing plant–soil feedbacks. Despite the high abundance of coarse litter (woody debris and coarse roots) in… read more here.

Genotype by heat conditions interaction effects on growth and litter traits in rabbits
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Veterinary Science"
DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.1018625
Abstract: Heat stress has severe impacts on rabbit performance because they have difficulty getting rid of excess heat. The interaction between genetic and environmental factors plays a vital role in the adaptation process. The current study… read more here.
