Summary: This study found that different culture scales can affect the growth performance and physiological indicators of seabass juveniles, with larger production scales leading to better growth performance. In terms of feeding behavior, feeding intensity is lower in the afternoon, and feeding time and feeding radius are also influenced by the culture scale.

Summary: Building a diverse and equitable laboratory is crucial for talent retention and the personal and professional growth of trainees. In order to enable trainees to achieve their highest success, strategies such as enhancing cultural competency and humility, establishing laboratory values, and developing equitable laboratory structures can create an inclusive laboratory environment.

Summary: Zebrafish is widely used in scientific research and the traditional methods of rearing these fish have been replaced by commercial aquaculture techniques to accelerate growth. However, the effects of feeding zebrafish diets designed for fast growth of cold-water fish species are not well understood.

Summary: This research investigates the effects of aerator noise on the swimming, feeding, and growth of largemouth bass. The study reveals that aerator noise leads to notable differences in swimming behavior and feeding, as well as compromised growth performance of the bass.

Summary: This study found that pile driving noise may disrupt feeding behaviors of key invertebrate species, with fewer squid capturing killifish during noise exposure. Squid had more failed predation attempts when noise was initiated during predation sequences. Additionally, hearing measurements on the killifish confirmed they could detect the noise.

Summary: This study found that Argentine ant workers can imbibe liquid from hydrogels, but the volume ingested and feeding time decrease with increasing sucrose concentrations. Feeding from hydrogels is slower, and feeding time increases with hydrogel age, but the total ingested volume may approach zero under laboratory conditions. Ants, particularly Argentine ants, prefer shady and humid locations for hydrogel feeding.

Summary: The effects of different corn processing methods on the growth and digestion of young dairy heifers were evaluated in this study. The results showed that feeding crumbled corn (CRC) had advantages in terms of total-tract starch digestibility, average daily gain (ADG), and final body weight compared to other processing methods. On the other hand, fine-ground corn (FGC) performed poorly. Additionally, CRC feeding may have positive effects on feed intake and feeding behavior.

Summary: Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are essential for tissue contraction. Abnormalities in SMC organization are associated with various diseases. Studies have found that SMCs cultured on flat surfaces can form three-dimensional clusters resembling pathological tissues, but the mechanism behind it is unknown.

Summary: By studying the feeding habits and preferences of goats, their welfare can be improved. The results showed that goats prefer to eat leaves over grass, and the height and type of feeder can affect their feeding posture and choices.

Summary: This study explores the influence of gut microbiota on feeding behavior traits and identifies specific microbes associated with these traits in three commercial swine breeds at different growth stages. The results indicate that the gut microbial composition explains a small to moderate proportion of the variability in feeding behavior. Several archaea and bacteria are found to be significantly correlated with feeding behavior measures. These findings highlight the importance of the gut microbiome in interacting with host feeding behavior and provide insights into swine microbial studies.

Summary: This study investigated the differences in movement behavior, feeding behavior, digestive ability, and intestinal microbiota of the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus with different growth rates. The results showed that slow-growing individuals had reduced feeding behavior and decreased activity of the main digestive enzyme. There was also significant variation in the gut microbiota composition, with fast-growing individuals having higher alpha diversity and abundance of specific bacterial families. These differences in behavior, digestive ability, and intestinal microbiota contribute to the growth differences in A. japonicus.

Summary: This study investigated the transition of lake sturgeon larvae from live feed to formulated feed and found that co-feeding formulated diets with live feed can improve growth and survival. It also suggested that introducing formulated diets early may improve tolerance to environmental hypoxia.

Summary: Stress often affects eating behaviors, but the determinants of stress-induced eating are not well understood. This study aims to explore better ways to induce anxiety and evaluate feeding behavior in mice, in order to reliably elicit stress eating. By adjusting experimental conditions such as conducting experiments at night and using overweight mice, the study aims to create an experimental model that closely resembles the physiological conditions in humans.

Summary: The study found that lower stocking densities and feeding only Artemia resulted in higher survival rates and growth of early-stage silver therapon larvae. Additionally, feeding at a higher level of 5 Artemia nauplii/mL led to significantly higher body lipid contents.
