Elephant grass has high biomass production potential and can benefit from biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) as its main external nitrogen source. This study evaluated the effect of BNF on biomass productivity and total nitrogen accumulation in different elephant grass genotypes. This experi...

The present study aimed to evaluate the production and the factors that influence the antimicrobial activity of a bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance (BLIS) produced by Streptococcus equinus C6I9, a bovine rumen isolate. The antagonist activity was evaluated by the spot-on-lawn assay. Antimicro...

The dairy industry stands as one of the most significant sectors within the Brazilian food industry. Ultra-high-temperature (UHT) milk has notably expanded its market presence in terms of fluid milk sales. Moreover, UHT milk is available in various options, including varying fat content...

Multigenerational effects on biological aspects and on the life table of Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and Sipha flava (Forbes) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are not known. These studies can help further our understanding of the reasons for the conflicting results of the biol...
