The noble individual M57 was a middle-aged adult, and M208 was a young adult male. Potential explanations for their low isotope values include but are not limited to (1) dietary habits, where an individual’s preference for food differs from others in the noble class. They may have been ...
For instance, knowing whether a microbe increased/decreased with a more littoral diet in female stickleback conferred no information about how that microbe responded to littoral diet in male stickleback (effects were uncorrelated). Moreover, microbes systematically responded more strongly to the diet of...
The scatter plot of NT vs. XT for both sexes suggests that male individuals present a certain homogeneity in their MW pattern (XT values ranging from ~ 150 to 190 and XT values from ~ 25 to ~ 75, excluding UE4328), in comparison to females, which show a greater range of distribution ...
In our study, neither E2 nor ERα-selective ligand PPT treatment for the last 3 weeks (Fig. 1A) affected the body weight (BW)-gain in females compared to vehicle treatment (Supplementary Fig. 1C,D). However, male mice showed a dose-dependent BW loss during E2 treatment, with up to ...
After 2 months, the women were crossed over to the alternative diet for another 2 months. Serum hormone and lipid levels were measured in the middle and at the end of each dietary period. In premenopausal women, the low-fat diet appeared to decrease levels of both non-protein-bound ...
Some mice from each group were kept for mating tests (n = 7–12 for each group), while others were sacrificed to collect sera and tissues. For the mating tests, two female mice and one male mouse of the same age were kept in a cage, the male mouse was removed after 15 d, ...
To verify the hypothesis that caffeine treatment may induce changes in the behavior of cockroaches, routine endpoints of locomotor activity were analyzed in the novel apparatus over a 12 min trial. As depicted inFig. 1, cockroaches fed with caffeine for 60 days exhibited significant increase in...
Mice were fed their respective diets for a period of 30 days, and then naturally mated by setting up a single male with a single female from their respective group. The morning newly-born pups were observed was considered day 0.5 of post-natal life (P0.5). Post parturition, pups were ...
BWG was significantly higher in male ducks than in females (P = 0.000). Significant differences between groups A and B were found in weeks 2, 3, 5 and 6 of production (BWG was higher in group A), while differences between sexes were found in the same weeks as for treatment groups...
There are number of means of methods to alter body composition, and metabolic issues, available for the adult who is overfat. The following is a systematic
