Effect of rearing system on carcass properties, chemical content and fatty acid composition of backfat from Mangalitsa pigs
(Institute of Meat Hygiene and Technology, Belgrade, 2020)
This research examined the effects of two rearing systems (conventional versus free-range) on carcass characteristics, and cholesterol content, chemical and fatty acid properties of the backfat from Mangalitsa pigs. Depending ...
Discriminant Analysis Approach in Morphometric Differentiation and Characterization of Serbian Autochthonous Goats
(MDPI, 2023)
This study investigated the possibility of using morphometric measurements to differentiate the autochthonous Serbian White goat breed from Saanen and Balkan goats, which were used as sire and dam breeds in its creation. ...
Influence of nitrogen rates and Fusarium verticillioides infection on Fusarium spp. and fumonisin contamination of maize kernels
(Crop Protection, 25-02-2021)
The aim of this investigation was to estimate the influence of four nitrogen (N) rates (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg ha−1) and two ear inoculation treatments (inoculated with F. verticillioides and control) of two Serbian maize ...
Energy metabolism indicators and body condition in peripartal period of Alpine goats
(SIVAR (Italian Society of Farm Animals Veterinary Practitioners), 2020)
The investigation was performed on two groups of primiparous and multiparous healthy dewormed Alpine dairy goats (25 each) during peripartal period. Blood samples were collected (jugular venipuncture) 10-15 days before and ...
