Excerpts

For all analyses, results were considered significant when p ≤ 0.05, and a trend towards significance when 0.10 ≥ p > 0.05. 3.

In Figure 1 C, it can be seen that, when the concentration of the glucose master liquor was 8% and the concentration of KH 2 PO 4 was 0.2%, with the gradual increase in the corn steep liquor concentration, there was no significant change in the OD value; additionally, the number of yeast cells showed a decreasing trend in the fermentation liquid of Candida utilis protein feed.

On day 42, the effects of dietary BET and AOX were exacerbated by HS as indicated by highly significant three- and four-way interactions ( Figure 5 ). 4.

A regression analysis was performed on the data in Table 3 using Design-Expert 12.0 software to obtain a quadratic regression equation for determining the OD values and number of yeast cells in response to the three factors: OD 600 = 0.6760 + 0.0136A + 0.0144B − 0.0025C + 0.0062AB − 0.0140AC − 0.0090BC − 0.0396A 2 − 0.0196B 2 + 0.0006C 2 Number of yeast cells = 2.77 + 0.0800A + 0.0475B + 0.0675C − 0.0150AB − 0.1000AC − 0.0050BC − 0.2930A 2 − 0.0980B 2 − 0.1280C 2 In Table 4 , the F -value was 40.02 and the p -value was < 0.0001, indicating that the model difference was highly significant, and the F-value in the out-of-fit term was 0.9886 and the p -value was = 0.9946 > (0.05), indicating that the difference was not significant enough for an optimal analysis.

As shown in Figure 5 , the red staining in liver oil red O sections after thyroid powder supplementation indicated a decreasing trend of neutral lipid content. 3.4.

Histopathological analyses showed a trend of time ( p T < 0.1) as well as a trend of Group × Time interaction ( p GxT < 0.1).

Fetal liver weight was higher in singletons compared to twins, while fetuses from supplemented dams showed a trend to a heavier liver compared to those from non-supplemented dams.

The results of the qRT-PCR showed that the expression of PGC marker genes Cxcr4 , Cvh , Dazl and Blimp1 displayed an increasing trend during PGCLC formation ( Figure 5 C).

In this study, the body weight, body slope length, sternum length, breast width, tibia length, and tibia circumference of Lindian chickens showed an increasing trend with increasing age, which was similar to the results of Li et al. on a hybrid variety (Gushi chicken and Anka chicken) [ 20 ].

In addition, in this study the visceral content showed a decreasing trend.

Control animals showed higher numbers of elimination behaviors and electrical stimulus animals showed higher numbers of shaking behaviors however these differences only tended towards significance when multiple comparison analysis was performed ( p (adjusted) = 0.130 and p (adjusted) = 0.303, respectively).

Exploratory behaviors showed no significant effect of treatment during the treatment observation period ( p = 0.238), but did show a significant overall treatment effect of during the post-treatment observation period ( p = 0.002), with control and electrical stimulus treatment showing a higher number of exploratory behaviors than the other treatments, but multiple comparisons only tended toward significance ( p (adjusted) = 0.053 ( Table 4 ).

The mean corpuscular volume and neutrophils exhibited a decreasing trend over time.

An obtained p value less than 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001 was defined as a significant, highly significant, and extremely significance differences, respectively. 3.

Follow up analysis revealed a preference only in trial 2, F(2,33) = 4.11, p = 0.029, η 2 = 0.26, and for trial 1, F(2,33) = 4.11, p = 0.051, η 2 = 0.20, which only approached significance but showed a large effect size.

The reports of emotional sensitivity were generally low for sounds with either the lowest (<250 Hz) or highest (>4000 Hz) F0s/center frequencies (see the lower and upper blue areas in Figure 3 and Figure 4 ) but showed a trend to decrease as frequency increased within the intermediary 250–4000 Hz area (see the green area in Figure 3 and Figure 4 ).

Conversely, Kirchhoff and colleagues, in 2017 [ 8 ], failed to identify a clear trend in the seminal parameters of three healthy Cairn Terriers supplemented with vitamin E and selenium.

Higher-level interactions may be significant when the main effects and two-way interactions are insignificant.

The BMP2 expression levels showed a trend, which was similar to that of PDGFA.

Abdominal fat ratio was highly significant higher in the HF group than in the LF group, while Intramuscular fat ratio was significantly higher in the HF group than in the LF group ( p < 0.01).

An overall performance parameters analysis of tibia bone showed that there was a positive trend among length of tibia, width and weight of tibia from day 7 to day 18, but the difference was not significant.

The estimation for Ne decreased from 2710 (1000 generations ago) to 34 (recent generation) for NCC, from 1912 to 27 for SCHC, from 2517 to 31 for SWC, from1658 to 43 for SIM, and from 1696 to 14 for WAG, which reflected a decreasing trend in Ne for all breeds.

“Log examination” followed a decreasing trend in the final period of the trial, possibly due to the loss of interest in the enrichment over time, as found by Van de Weerd et al.

Overall, we identified 167 highly significant and subthreshold SNPs associated with the milk components of Karachai goats.

SOD activity in HD piglets was higher overall than CD (steady levels), showing a decreasing trend towards the end of the suckling period.
