https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2600011
Broiler transport in hot climates is associated with higher heat stress, mortality, and meat-quality defects when high temperature and humidity combine with uneven ventilation to create hot, humid thermal core zones during prolonged feed and water deprivation. This review synthesizes mitigation options across pre-transport preparation, in-transit management, and post-transport recovery, focusing on practices feasible on farms and in processing plants and using a decision-relevant framing that prioritizes controlling total deprivation time, limi...

Anserine is an abundant peptide in chicken meat and influences the meat flavor. The content of anserine in meat as other flavor precursors is influenced by many genes as well as environmental factors. This study aimed to identify the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HNMT-like gene and assess their possible associations with the content of anserine in the red-brown Korean native chicken (KNC-R). We used three hundred and eighty-four chickens (males, n = 192; females, n = 192) aged 10 weeks old to genotype three synonymous SNPs (rs31...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2500234
Male infertility is an increasing global health concern, with reduced sperm motility being a major contributing factor. Among various molecular mechanisms, the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway has been identified as a key regulator of sperm function, particularly motility. However, the relationship between this pathway and sperm motility is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the correlation between sperm motility and the levels of PI3K/...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e88
Active dry yeast (ADY) is frequently utilized as a probiotic to promote the growth and health of ruminants. However, it is not clearly established whether ADY influences and engages in the metabolism of fatty acids (FA) through interactions with rumen microbial communities. This study evaluated the effects of ADY on rumen FA and rumen bacterial community diversity in finishing bulls. Twenty Yanbian cattle were randomly divided into two groups (10 bulls in each). The control group (CON) received a basal diet, while the treatment group (ADY) rece...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2400475
This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis on the gut health and growth performance of weaning pigs. A total of 28-day-old piglets (n = 50 per group) were randomly assigned to four groups: CTRL (basal diet), BS (basal diet + Bacillus subtilis), BL (basal diet + Bacillus licheniformis), or BSL (basal diet + both Bacillus strains). After 28 days, pigs fed BSL had the highest body weight, although the difference was not statistically significant. Bacillus-treated pigs showed no dif...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2500167
Reducing dietary crude protein (CP) levels while supplementing with essential amino acids (AA) has been widely studied as a strategy to maintain nutrient balance while lowering nitrogen excretion. Among feed additives, N-carbamylglutamate (NCG), an arginine precursor with superior stability and mitochondrial permeability, has emerged as a promising feed additive for improving intestinal development and overall pig performance. A total of 240 crossbred grower pigs were allotted to four dietary treatments based on initial body weight. Treatments ...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2500218
Prebiotics such as fructooligosaccharides and inulin are biological activators that selectively stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. However, their specific effects when applied during the weaning period in piglets remains limited. Therefore, this study evaluated the effects of fructooligosaccharides and inulin supplementation in weaned piglets on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, immune response, and gut microbiota composition with the aim of exploring their potential benefits for pi...

Various beef cattle breeds are raised in different countries. Hanwoo and Wagyu breeds are primarily raised in Korea and Japan, respectively, whereas Angus breed is one of the most widely bred beef cattle breed worldwide. Although microbiome studies have been conducted for each breed, comparative analyses of the ruminal microbiome and their functions across breeds remain limited. Moreover, the potential links between the ruminal microbiome and animal traits related to meat quality and productivity have not been studied. Based on 13 studies compr...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2600114
Weaning is a critical developmental stage in piglets and is frequently associated with intestinal dysfunction, diarrhea, and growth retardation due to abrupt dietary and environmental changes. Probiotics have been explored as antibiotic alternatives to alleviate postweaning stress, and Lactobacillus plantarum has shown potential for modulating the gut microbiota and improving intestinal health. However, most previous studies have relied on single-omics approaches, limiting mechanistic understanding of host–microbiome interactions. This study ...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2400235
Broilers are bred at a higher density than large livestock, and their relatively small size makes monitoring challenging, requiring a reliable, cost-effective automatic monitoring system for precision farming. Particularly in the case of managing large-scale broiler breeding systems, such as multi-tier broiler houses, it is important to reduce investment in computing facilities and to improve productivity through automatic monitoring technology. However, financial ability of farmers to equip and manage the high-specification computing equipment...
