Excerpts

None of the socio-demographic variables were associated with the response variable conflict with wildlife reported by interviewees except for poultry rearing and livestock rearing, which are highly significant ( Table 4 ).

When p < 0.001, the investigated parameter was considered to be highly significant. 2.3.4.

More specifically, the dams tended to manifest the grooming behaviour more during the first hour after calving, with a highly significant decrease from the first to the second hour.

These authors also found a statistically highly significant dependence between birth order (number of foalings) and UFA levels, which were higher in milk produced by mares with >5 foalings [ 33 ].

Conclusions A remarkable prevalence of foot-related lameness, foot diseases and lesions in intensive dairy sheep farms in Greece has been evidenced, indicating an increasing trend over the last decade.

In addition, paired-sample t -tests were employed to compare the growth performance of weaned piglets, as well as the antioxidant capacity of serum in sows and weaned piglets; 0.01 < p < 0.05 indicated significant difference and p < 0.01 extremely significant difference, marked with * and **, respectively. 3.

Highly significant differences between sexes occurred in the total score and the competitions: scent (nose), searching, courage and sharpness, voice on trail, voice when game in sight, correctness of attack, and persistence ( p < 0.01).

A parabolic trend was described with an increasing trend for the first stage of the cycle with the higher values being reported for March, April, and May, in which the peak was reached.

Age was statistically significant to explain SH, so that an increasing trend, regardless of sex, was evident ( Figure 2 a).

There is an increasing trend to use alternatives to antibiotics including probiotics, prebiotics, organic acids, essential oils and botanical extracts for turkey [ 114 ] in the aim of reducing the pathogenic load.

As displayed in Figure 2 , a decreasing trend of leptin concentration was found in mares belonging to Group A starting from the prepartum period until the postpartum period, whereas serum UCP1 showed decreased values during the prepartum period following by a rise until the second week after parturition ( p > 0.0001).

A strong trend towards higher desirability scores with respect to meat flavour and consistency was noted for the meat of the group II animals offered a mixture of hybrid barley and wheat.

While TRPV1 gene expression showed a trend for a higher expression after treatment with capsaicin, this was not associated with GLP-1 release.

[ 54 ], analyzed the data obtained from a modified beam trawl in GSA17 (the so-called “rapido” survey, i.e., Solemon) held between 2005 and 2014, and they found an increasing trend in the occurrence of this species over the years.

Although the hazard of developing LR was statistically different only between tumor-free and infiltrated margins, a tendency towards significance was found also when comparing CbCM with tumor-free margins, with a three-fold increase in the risk of LR in dogs with CbCM versus tumor-free margins.

When tested for susceptibility to antimicrobials, clinical isolates showed highly significant differences in the antimicrobial resistance rates vs. commensal isolates for all the drugs tested, except for doxycycline.

The relative abundance of dominant phyla Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes exhibited an increasing trend from the small intestine to the large intestine, and there was a higher abundance of genus Bacteroides (Class: Bacteroidia ), Coprobacillus and Eubacterium (Class: Erysipelotrichia ), Parabacteroides (Family: Porphyromonadaceae ) and Ruminococcus (Family: Lachnospiraceae ), and Family Odoribacteraceae and Rikenellaceae in the hindgut, and some metabolic pathways were higher in the hindgut.

The relative abundances of plylum Firmicutes ( t = −2.93, df = 8, p < 0.05) and plylum Bacteroidetes ( t = −2.37, df = 8, p < 0.05) showed an increasing trend from small intestine to large intestine, but plylum Proteobacteria ( t = 4.40, df = 8, p < 0.01) showed a decreasing trend from small intestine to large intestine ( Figure 1 A and Figure S2 ).

A decreasing trend was found in breast muscle rate at day 28 and thigh muscle rate at day 56 [ 8 ].

p < 0.05 was considered significant, and p < 0.01 was considered highly significant.

The static pressure data suggested consistency at each zone of an individual model, implying a clear trend of the average magnitude of pressure from high to low: TISE, MICE, MIRE, and MIAE, ranging from only 21 to 25 Pa.

However, for supplier 2, there is a notable trend for ENNB, FB 1 , and β-ZON, where higher concentrations were observed for the first three feed samplings; later, these concentrations decrease over time ( Figure 2 B).

Comparing data of April to June to October, goats showed the same tendency in lying bouts ( Figure 3 ): (a) from April to June, goats showed a highly significant decrease in LBD with a simultaneous significant increase in FLB (both in 2019 and 2020), and (b) from June to October goats showed a significant increase in LBD (2019 and 2020) with a simultaneous decrease in FLB (significant in 2020).

The results demonstrated that the TBL occurrence in wild boars shows an increasing trend in the south–north direction.

Streptococcus showed a trend of decreasing at first and then increasing during the development of giant pandas.
