TL;DR: Evaluating the productive performance, behavior, and welfare status of six poultry genotypes reared in an organic system showed that the genotypes with the best productive performance were not adapted to the organic system, because they were too static and exhibited the worst welfare status.

TL;DR: It is shown that rabbit seminal fluid vesicles can degrade diadenosine compounds to AMP and that the addition of the vesicle and diadene compounds to uncapacitated rabbit spermatozoa favours the acquisition of the fertilizing capacity.

TL;DR: The present research studied the effect of liquorice extract (in feed and/or directly in burgers) on the shelf-life of rabbit meat and found the α-tocopherol content showed higher levels during storage in the burgers from the Liquorice group and TBARs values showed a significant positive effect of dietary liquorice.

TL;DR: Results suggest that the prostatic secretory granules may represent a source of protection for rabbit sperm against in vitro oxidative stress by supplying the sperm with endogenous alpha-T.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that drying does not severely compromise the nutritional value of sprouts and provides a valid support for the choice of the drying method depending on the compound to be preserved, and taking into consideration the different cost of the methods.
