Fear reactions in riding horses : a comparison between dressage and jumping horses by Claesson Lundin, Märta

Variation in protein profile of bulk milk from Northern Sweden by Schönborg, Therese

“…The protein profile is of importance for pro-cessability of the milk, and is known to be influenced partly by genetics. Bulk milk samples from 13 farms with Swedish Mountain Breed (SMB), Swedish Jersey (SJB), Swedish Red and White (SRB) and Swedish Holstein (SH) were analysed for content of αs1-, αs2-, β-, and κ-casein, as well as α-lactalalbumin and β-lactoglobulin. …”

Evaluation of indirect blood pressure measurement, plasma endothelin-1 and serum cortisol in clinically healthy horses by Söder, Josefin

“…The results indicate an acceptable day-to-day variation of the tested parameters, but the higher plasma ET-1 concentrations recorded after transportation, might have been caused by a stress response associated with the transportation and being housed in a new environ-ment. The differences detected in plasma ET-1 and serum cortisol between the two breeds might be related to differences in genetic setup, training status as well as management conditions. …”

Editorial: Realizing livelihood and environmental benefits of forages in tropical crop-tree-livestock systems by Chirinda, Ngonidzashe, Peters, Michael, Burkart, Stefan, Notenbaert, An Maria Omer, Hoek, Rein van der

“…Besides the adoption of better pasture management systems, genetic innovations can be used to overcome challenges such as droughts (Carvajal-Tapia et al., 2021), soil salinity (Liu et al., 2022 and low biomass accumulation (Mwendia et al., 2021).An additional emerging use of tropical forages is their potential as a food source for edible insects (Bawa et al., 2020;Oonincx et al., 2020). …”
