Host transcriptome response to heat stress and Eimeria maxima infection in meat-type chickens Open
Eimeria (E . ) maxima parasite infects chickens’ midgut disrupting the jejunal and ileal mucosa causing high morbidity and mortality. Heat stress (HS) is a seasonal stressor that impacts biological functions leading to poor performance. Th…

Heat stress reduces sexual development and affects pathogenesis of Eimeria maxima in meat-type chickens Open
Coccidiosis, caused by Eimeria spp. presents a self-limiting intestinal infection of poultry. Intestinal replication of the parasite causes severe morphological alterations to the host gastrointestinal tract, marked, among others, by the d…

Supplementation of diets with Brazil nut powder can meet dietary methionine requirement of organic broiler chickens Open
Synthetic amino acids are not permitted in organic feeds by the National Organic Standard Board (NOSB) in the USA. However, low levels of methionine (Met) are permitted, and the NOSB recommends 0.1% synthetic Met for broilers. Inadequate l…
