Generation means analysis of climbing ability in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by Checa Coral, Oscar E., Ceballos, H., Blair, Matthew W.

“…Genetic improvement of climbing beans would benefit from an understanding of the inheritance of climbing capacity (made up of plant height [PH] and internode length [IL] traits). The objective of this study was to determine the inheritance of climbing capacity traits in 3 crosses made within and between gene pools (Andean × Andean [BRB32 × MAC47], Mesoamerican × Mesoamerican [Tío Canela × G2333], and Mesoamerican × Andean [G2333 × G19839]) using generation means analysis. …”

Influence of chicory feeding on performance and gut development in broilers by Liu, Haoyu

“…The histological approach was used to assess the gut development by measuring villus height and crypt depth. The growth response was slightly increased in broilers fed 6% chicory collected in September, comparing with control group (P < 0.05) in the first part of the feeding period (0 to 13 days), but diminished at the end of the experiment. …”
