Excerpts

Furthermore, correlation analysis also showed a highly significant linear correlation between the results of qRT-PCR and RNA-seq (R 2 = 0.7952), indicating the high reliability of the transcriptomic data ( Figure 7 ). 3.

Each of the characteristics used in the model showed highly significant influence on the model solution.

In the present study, due to the reduction in FI with increasing dietary HS, highly significant linear reductions in ME and digestible lysine intake were also found from 1–14, 29–42, and 1–42 days (data not shown), which could explain the lack of effect of HS on body weight, WG, breast and carcass weight and yield.

However, with the increasing amount of dietary tea powder, the ADFI showed a trend to rise before plateauing.

While these differences were not statistically significant, the contrast in the cleavage rate between galactose and sucrose was very close to being significant.

“Severe lameness” was described by Reference [ 26 ] with results trending towards significance between two visits.

For the number of faecal boli, we observed the same patterns in the results: a greater response to TMT followed by Fel d 1 and the blank, with a statistical trend but not a significant difference, likely due to the high variability in this parameter.

The increase in salinity gradient resulted in a decreasing trend in the richness and abundance of benthic species, while the diversity showed a slightly positive trend, but below statistical significance ( p < 0.05).

Our results show an evident trend that the piglets of the first parity sows inseminated by the D boars were characterized by the highest LW at weaning and the highest ADG (birth–weaning).

The lowest total Gram-negative bacteria was recorded in fish fed with 17 g/kg of dietary fumaric acid, as estimated by regression analysis, and showed an increasing trend after this level in the final trial.

A decreasing trend of L* value was found in all three packaging types throughout the 7 days of simulated retail display.

Furthermore, under continued hypoxic condition, PHD genes exhibited an obviously rapid but gradually attenuated response from 3 h to 24 h, and upon reoxygenation, the transcriptional expression of PHD genes showed a decreasing trend in most of the tissues.

As can be seen from Figure 2 , over the years, the types of studies have increased considerably in veterinary medicine, and reviews have always had an increasing trend over the five decades.

In addition, economic and legislative considerations may be significant factors, too [ 26 ]. 3.

11-KT showed an increasing trend from 40 h post-hormone treatment in all groups with highest level at ovulation time.

The average relationship coefficients ( AR ) in both “berrenda” cattle breeds ( Figure 6 ) did not show quite high values ( Figure 7 ) and they varied not much through the years (0.95% in BN and 0.40% in BC) ( Figure 8 ), although they increased during the second generation and they followed a slightly increasing trend, considered as not remarkable.

In addition, aspartic acid and norleucine in the MEC groups also showed an increasing trend, but the difference was not significant.

The same pattern is also visible per single individual ( Figure 2 B), where males were shown to feed on more taxa than females in both bottom types and this resulted in the marginal significance of interaction between sex and substrate ( Table 3 ).

Interestingly, under these conditions, the main effect of Glycan PB on performance was by increasing FI by 164 g feed/bird, accompanied by an increasing trend in BW gain by 112 g.

The results are in agreement with another study demonstrating highly significant increases in the final BW and ADG compared to the control animals and an improvement in the gain-to-feed ratio in the treated group [ 20 ].

Color parameters (L*, a* and b*) of analyzed cheeses, unlike what other authors found, were not influenced by ripening time; nevertheless, an increasing trend can be observed with slight differences that did not reach a significant level, probably due to the limited duration of ripening time.

Procrustes ANOVA showed highly significant variations in symmetry within the “individual × side” interaction (FA) and “side” effects (DA), the former being much higher than the latter (71.9% vs. 6.9%) ( Table 1 ).

Although BCS barely missed significance in our study, we observed that calves of thin cows (BCS < 3) showed higher serum Ig concentrations compared to the reference group of cows (BCS 3–4).

Metabolic Enzymes Hexokinase, LDH, and MDH (except in muscle tissues) activities showed an increasing trend during the initial days of feed deprivation ( Figure 4 ).

The G6PDH activities showed a decreasing trend both in liver and muscle tissues ( Figure 4 D).
