The relationship a #dog has with its owner is related to its stress level, shows a study from LiU. The results, published in Scientific Reports, also suggest that the link between stress and the owner’s personality traits differs between dog #breeds. liu.se/en/news-item/h… #ethology

Billions of chicks are hatched every year in commercial hatcheries under stressful conditions. A study from LiU finds that this causes a negative cognitive judgement bias, indicating poor welfare. doi.org/10.3390/ani110…

Playful chicks! 🐣 LiU research shows that domesticated chicks play more than their wild ancestors. Also, if affected by stress early in life, chicks play more. Read about it in the new paper from the Jensen lab: nature.com/articles/s4159… #LiU #LiUBiology #ethology

Managing land use while maintaining #biodiversity is not easy. Last week we were visited by Markus Franzén from Linnéuniversitetet Linnaeus University. His recent work sheds light on how droughts and grazing on Gotland affects three butterfly species.🦋 lnu.se/en/research/re… #LiU #LiUBiology #ecology

Male birds have two Z sex chromosomes, indicating a need for dosage compensation. In a recent seminar talk by Amir Fallahshahroudi, we got to hear about a highly conservative miRNA that targets dosage-sensitive genes. 🧬 genome.cshlp.org/content/27/12/… #LiU #LiUBiology

Former PhD student in the AVIAN group, Martin Johnsson, visited us yesterday. He held an excellent seminar on the problems and possibilities of genotypic predictions. #LiU #LiUBiology #Genetics

Stort grattis till Per Jensen, forskare vid IFM - Physics, Chemistry and Biology at LiU, som idag tilldelats UFAW pris Medal for Outstanding Contributions to Animal Welfare Science!🎉 #forskning

Urban gardening is an opportunity to recycle nutrients through use of compost. But this requires management of excess phosphorus in the soil. We were recently visited by Assoc Prof Gaston Small, who gave us more insight on the topic. doi.org/10.2495/DNE-V1… #LiUBiology #Ecology
