The baryometric approach addresses the characterization of the Arbia breed by the use of body measurements on 40 individuals (34 goats and 6 bucks), these measurements: HL, HW, EL, EW, WH, BH, SH, CP, HG, CD, SW, NL, BL, TBL, SIL, TL, PL, RW, IW and TW are  respectively : 23.16 ± 1.53 cm, 11.51 ± 2.13 cm, 16.47 ± 2.40cm, 7.30 ± 0.63cm, 69.79 ± 4.46 cm, 71.40 ± 4.74 cm, 72.28 ± 4.67cm, 8.58 ± 1.11cm, 79.36 ± 6.44 cm, 28.71 ± 3.17cm, 16.65 ± 2.80cm, 23.18 ± 2.19cm, 72.57 ± 7.14cm, 109.96 ± 7.55cm, 64.24 ± 5.26 cm, 12.30 ± 2.42cm, 15.59 ± 1.36 cm, 15.59±1.36cm, 21.28 ± 1.84cm, 11.97 ± 1.81cm and 16.77 ± 2.75cm. This characterization revealed a phenotypic dimorphism between males and females, with very highly significant differences (p<0.001) for  some of the body measurements used. The results of the PCA yielded 03 classes (n = 34, n = 05 and n = 01, respectively). While the performance aspect is carried out by physicochemical analyzes of 29 milk samples belonging to the individuals characterized, the analyzes F, D, C, S, P, L, T, S1 are respectively 56.90 ± 20, 24 g / l; 3.086 ± 3.62; 4.96 ± 0.41; 7.73 ± 1.78%; 27.35 ± 4.01 g / l; 4.21 ± 0.61g / 100ml; 19.18 ± 2.77C °; 0.70 ± 0.09%. These characteristics give good milk quality.

Both studies revealed a significant difference in behaviour between low activity and high visitor activity periods for all three elephants in the behaviour ’Walk’. No overall significant differ-ence was found in the other behavioural expressions. Clear difference in reaction norms was found between the matriarch and the two subordinates for the behaviours: ’Feed from ground’, ’Inactive’, ’Walk’ and ’Other’.

There are 160 species of birds (46 migratory species and 66 sedentary species); 21 species of mammals; 5 species of freshwater fish; 17 species of reptiles and 5 species of amphibians. The present study revealed to us the existence of an exceptional fauna diversity in this area with some new data on the distribution of some species, especially birds and mammals. For the forest of Atlas Pistachio, there are less than all the study area, because of the location of the 4th forests, with two of them in the north of Tiaret region (mountains of Tagdemt and Guertoufa) and the the others forests in the south, in the steppe ecosystem (Rechaiga and Rosfa). Our study reveals that the most species and the diversity of fauna are located in the north (Tagdempt and Rosfa) with 47 species of birds of an total of 57 species that we mentioned in all the 4th forests of the Atlas Pistachio, 8 of the total of 12 species of mammals, 9 of the total of 13 reptiles and only one species of amphibians with is Sclerophrys mauritanica.

Based mainly on random sampling, giving particular importance to the different types of substrate, we were able to sample 73 species of lichens belonging to 16 families and 38 genera. Among these, the Parmeliaceae family is the most dominant with 19 species followed by the Lecanoraceae family which is represented by 14 species and the Physciaceae by 13 species. The physiognomic spectrum shows the presence of 06 lichen categories: foliaceous lichens, crustaceans, fruticose, gelatinous, scaly and leprous. While the classification by type of substrate shows the dominance of corticolous lichens with 48 species followed by saxicolous with 13 species, terricolous with 06 in number and lignicoles and muscicoles with 03 species each. We were able to identify 18 species protected by Algerian law among inventoried lichens.

Average weight (AW), Daily Weight Gain (DWG), FI (Feed Intake), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Mortality Rate (MR), hot and cold carcass weight, yield, and muscle weights were measured. Meat quality was evaluated by determining the pH and color values of the CIE Lab Color System. A sensory analysis was performed. Results showed no significant difference in growth performance (P>0.05). Indeed, the control group had a significantly higher BW compared with experimental treatments P1, P2, and P3. Furthermore, broiler DWG did not differ (P>0.05) between the control and the experimental groups. Likewise, no significant differences were observed between treatments regarding FI, FCR, and mortality (P>0.05). The overall mortality rate during the experimental period was low in the control group (0%) compared to the group fed prebiotic (0.2%). No significant effect was observed regarding pH 30 min and ultimate pH (P>0.05). However, a significant difference has occurred in the meat color (P= 0.03). Therefore, meat quality showed no alteration when prebiotic was added during the starter period. It was concluded that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae-derived prebiotic added to the broiler diet at doses up to 2g/kg during the starter period did not improve performance, but could maintain meat quality. Further investigations are needed to clarify the effect of duration prebiotics administration on meat quality in broiler chickens.","PeriodicalId":321295,"journal":{"name":"Genetics &amp; Biodiversity Journal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121407563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Principal component analysis proposed two main groups of variables, one based on seed performance and the other targeting pod potential. Hierarchical classification with seven clusters revealed considerable genetic diversity among the Algerian carob accessions studied, and indicated that the type of bioclimate did not influence their distribution, suggesting that morphometric traits are probably controlled more by genes that by bioclimate.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of these iTABs tested in Imo State Nigeria using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), Blood samples were collected from 77 chickens belonging to these six populations of iTABs in the ratio (12:12:14:13:13:13), for Noiler, FUNAAB Alpha, Shika Brown, Kuroiler, Sasso and Fulani chickens, respectively. Genomic DNA was extracted from seventy-seven birds randomly selected from the six iTABs. A 450-bp mtDNA D-loop region was sequenced.  The highest (H=5) and the lowest (H=2) number of haplotypes were found within Noiler, and Shika Brown/Fulani, respectively. Among the six populations, haplotype and nucleotide diversity was 0.558±0.063 and 0.0064±0.0013, respectively. A total of 8 haplotypes were identified from 15 polymorphic sites. These haplotypes clustered into three clades with 87.89% of the total maternal genetic variations occurring within population. Fulani and Shika Brown had the least (0.000) genetic distance. Tajima’s D was negative among populations and within Noiler, Kuroiler, Sasso and Fulani populations but was only statistically significant within the Noiler population. Diversity indices of this study revealed that mtDNA polymorphism was on the average both within populations and among populations. The results indicate the existence of two distinct maternal lineages from Southeast Asia, south central and Southeast China evenly distributed among the iTABs.

Patients and Methods: We made this study on 120 men recruited from Sabra and 120 men recruited from Maghnia, Tlemcen (Algeria). Each group is divided into four groups (30 healthy control, 30 T2D without treatment, 30 T2D with metformin, and 30 T2D with insulin). A 14-item dietary questionnaire was applied to each individual to define adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Blood samples are collected for the determination of biochemical parameters (glucose, triglycerides, and cholesterol, high and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) and oxidative markers (superoxide anion, nitric oxide, malondialdehyde, carbonyl proteins, oxygen radical absorbance capacity, vitamin C, catalase, glutathione). Our results show that type 2 diabetics from Maghnia have a higher adherence score to the Midetaranean diet compared to those from Sabra. This difference is related to the dietary and cultural diversity of each region. Moreover, Our results show that insulin reduces more lipid parameters than metformin, moreover, the oxidant/antioxidant status became normal in patients treated with metformin especially in Maghnia patients compared to Sabra diabetics. Conclusion: Insulin treatment is more effective in improving the lipid profile than metformin treatment. In addition, the combination of metformin, which reverses the redox changes associated with diabetes, and insulin, which improves all lipid profiles, should be prescribed in patients with type 2 diabetes in diabetics with high oxidative stress and hypertriglyceridemia. Moreover, the adaptation of a Mediterranean diet in Maghnia men has provided good control of type 2 diabetes. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":321295,"journal":{"name":"Genetics &amp; Biodiversity Journal","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127346565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
