The shaggy soldier [Galinsoga ciliata (Rafin) S. F. Blake], family Asteraceae] is an invasive species that poses a growing threat to crop production. This annual plant produces heteromorphic achenes in a capitulum type inflorescence. The objective of this study was to compare selected morphological and phenological parameters and the success of generative reproduction in plants developed from peripheral and central achenes of the capitulum. The somatic variability of G. ciliata diaspores contributed to differences in the growth rates, development and fertility of the resulting populations. The progeny of central diaspores developed at a slower rate than the individuals derived from peripheral achenes, but at the end of their life cycle, the offspring of dimorphic achenes formed homogenous groups as regards height values. On average, the initial phenophases of G. ciliata plants derived from central achenes began one day later, and they entered the flowering stage eight days later than the individuals developed from peripheral seeds. At the initial growth stage (experimental day 65 to 83), the progeny of central achenes produced fewer capitula. On day 133, the individual fertility of the plants derived from central diaspores was 10% higher on average in comparison with the offspring of peripheral achenes.

The investigations were carried out in a sheepfold located in the Pomeranian Province, Poland. Sheep were evaluated in terms of reproduction traits of ewes, nursing success, and the weight at birth of their lambs. The herd achieved a generally high level of reproduction traits, similar to reference values for the breed published by the Polish Sheep BreedingAssociation for the years 2005–2009. The mean fertility index for the studied period remained at a level 78.2%, prolificacy 133.8%, and lamb nursing success 86.8%, whereas the mean index of reproduction performance was 90.8%. Equally high values were observed for the growth of the offspring. Until 75 days of age, both body weight and daily gains of singles were higher compared to those of lambs born from multiple births. The ram lambs attained higher body weight and daily gains as compared to the ewe lambs of the same age.

The study was performed on pregnant ewes and their progeny. The experimental group of ewes was given injections of 5 mg selenium in the form of sodium selenite. The sodium selenite s.c. injections resulted in monre than a triple, significant increase in the selenium level in ewes, at the first month as compared to the initial concentration of 0.42±0.11 to 1.38±0.21 μmol/l. Also in lambs a marked increase in selenium was noticed in the first and fifth weeks of life, but the levels of this element were by a half lower than in their mothers. Moreover, considerable diminution of magnesium concentration was observed in both groups: from 1.05±0.05 to 0.82±0.07 mmol/l in Group 1 of ewes in the second month following Na₂SeO₃ injection, and from 0.94±0.05 to 0.82±0.08 mmol/l in lambs, in the ninth week.

Seven triticale cultivars (Ampiac, Aubrac, Trinidad, Ticino, Lamberto, Pronto and Prado) and their F1 hybrids obtained after crossing in a line x tester scheme were examined with respect to their androgenetic effectiveness. The embryo induction rate (number of embryos per 100 anthers), green plant regeneration rate (number of green plantlets per 100 embryos), plant yield (number of green and albino plantlets per 100 anthers) and green plant yield (number of green plantlets per 100 anthers) were assessed. The multivariate and univariate effects of general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining abilities for the studied traits were estimated and tested. Significant differences between the genotypes were found for individual traits as well as for all the traits treated jointly. Hybrids generally showed a better response in anther culture than their parental genotypes. Heterosis effects were observed in some hybrids for embryo induction rate and green plant yield. GCA and SCA variances were significant and a dominance of the GCA over the SCA variation was found. Among the examined cultivars, Ticino and Pronto were characterised by positive and significant GCA for embryo induction and green plant yield, and these cultivars may be recommended for the improvement of anther culture responsiveness in triticale.

The investigations were carried out to compare selection conducted on the basis of progeny with that on the basis of animals'own performance. Selection was conducted for the body weight at weaning (at the age of 21 days), which is a trait of low heritability (h²=0.1). It was run throughout 15 generations, whereas in generations 13 and 14 three experimental replicas were crossed to obtain population free of inbreeding. A cumulated response to selection was higher in the group selected on the basis of animals' own performance, but after crossing the replicas it decreased clearly in the both groups. The cumulated selection differential was higher in the group selected on the basis of animals' own performance. However, a statistical analysis of the obtained results showed no significant difference between the two selection methods.

The respective investigations were carried out on 16 groups of bull sires, lathers of the subsequent generation of reproductors, including 13 groups of bulls of the Polish black-and-white breed (BW), 2 groups of purebreed Holstein-Friesian (HF) and 1 group of interbreed crosses (BW x HF). The total number of sons amounted to 427 heads and the numbers of groups varied from 9 to 74 sons. The results obtained prove a highly significant (P ≤ 0,01) effect of fathers on the body weight of sons on the 120th, 300th and 400th day of life, body weight gains from the 121st to the 400th day of life, height at withers and chest girth. The best results with regard to the traits analyzed were obtained by sons of the Centaur bull, a purebreed Holstein-Friesian and the worst by sons of the black-and-white Rolek bull.

DNA finferprinting analysis based on microsatellites was applied for separation of mixed gynogenetic offspring of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baeri) and individuals from commercial production. Variation at 11 microsatellite DNA loci was surveyed for parent of gynogenetic offspring. Thus microsatellite DNA profiles in studied loci were known and this key-point was aplied in segregation analysis of mixed fish. In results 108 individuals of 281 studied were verified as gynogenetic offspring. The present survey of microsatellite variation demonstrated a reliable tool for separation of mixed group of fish.

Environmental toxicants such as insecticides are able to provoke epigenetic alterations which can be inherited to future generations. The aim of the current study was to assess whether the insecticide Trebon 10F (containing the active ingredient etofenprox) causes multigenerational and/or transgenerational effects on the egg traits of the collembolan Folsomia candida. The parent generation was kept in soil treated with three concentrations of the insecticide. The hatched offspring from each treatment were divided into two groups and were treated in the same manner as their parents (multigenerational effect), or remained untreated (transgenerational effect). The parents reacted with smaller eggs to the insecticide in a concentration dependent manner. Both multigenerational and transgenerational effects were detected in the offspring generations. While neither the number of eggs nor the ratios of the egg diameters (shortest/longest diameter) changed, the egg size increased as the Trebon 10F concentration increased. This is an indication that parents living under insecticide stress transmit this information to their offspring, who react with higher quality egg production. Such alterations in egg traits may have important consequences on the F. candida population dynamic.

The research material consisted of 87 Suffolk ewes divided into control (1) and experimental (2) groups. Both groups were fed farm feeds according to DLG standards.Animals from the experimental group were given an addition of the nutritional pectin concentrate with an immunological effect (KO) produced on the basis of apple pectins. Dams were given approx. 10 g per animal per day of the preparation mixed with concentrate every 7 days during tupping, every 3 days during pregnancy and everyday during the rearing of lambs. Lambs were reared with their dams. From 14 days of age their diet was supplemented with the evaluated preparation mixed with oat meal and then with concentrate at the amount of 10% of a given feed. Reproduction results of 87 ewes including fertility, prolificacy, rearing of lambs and reproduction indices were evaluated. Based on the body weight of lambs at 2 days after birth and at the age of 1 month, 56 and 90 days, as well as on the daily body weight gains in the individual examined periods, the evaluation of the growth of the offspring being reared was performed. In the statistical analysis of the obtained results, Student’s t-test (addition of preparation) was applied. It was found that dams from both groups were characterised by similar and very low fertility (54.7–58.2%). The applied pectin preparation significantly (P≤0.01) affected the value of the prolificacy index of the examined sheep. In this respect, the ewes from experimental group were over 32 per cent better than the ewes from the control group. Similar tendency was observed for the rearing of lambs and the values of reproduction indices. The offspring of both groups of dams weighed at 2 days after birth had similar body weight. From 1 month of age a significant advantage of lambs from experimental group was observed both in respect of body weight and daily body weight gains.At the last weighing at 90 days of age, lambs given the KO preparation were significantly heavier (P≤0.01) than their age mates from group 1. In the whole experiment, lambs from group 2 were characterised by approx. 26 g higher body weight gains (P≤0.05) compared to lambs from group 1 and the values of the growth rate indices for animals in both groups were similar.

Materiał badawczy stanowiło 87 maciorek rasy suffolk podzielonych na grupę kontrolną – 1 i doświadczalną – 2. Obie grupy żywione były paszami gospodarskimi wg norm DLG. Zwierzęta z grupy doświadczalnej otrzymywały dodatek odżywczego koncentratu pektynowego o działaniu odpornościowym (KO) produkowanego na bazie pektyn jabłkowych. Preparat podawano matkom w ilości ok. 10 g na osob. na dzień wymieszany z paszą treściwą co siedem dni w okresie stanówki, co trzy dni w okresie ciąży i codziennie w okresie odchowu jagniąt. Jagnięta odchowywano przy matkach. Od 14. dnia życia ich dietę uzupełniano o dodatek ocenianego preparatu wymieszanego ze śrutą owsianą, a później z mieszanką treściwą w ilości 10% danej paszy. Oceniono wyniki rozrodu 87 maciorek określając ich płodność, plenność, odchów jagniąt i wskaźniki użytkowości rozpłodowej. Na podstawie masy ciała jagniąt w 2. dniu po urodzeniu oraz w wieku 1. mies., 56 i 90 dni, a także dobowych przyrostów masy ciała w poszczególnych okresach badawczych dokonano oceny wzrostu odchowywanego potomstwa. W statystycznym opracowaniu uzyskanych wyników zastosowano jednoczynnikową (dodatekpreparatu) analizę wariancji. Stwierdzono, że matki obu grup cechowały się podobną i bardzo małą płodnością (54,7–58,2%). Zastosowany preparat pektynowy istotnie (P≤0,01) wpłynął na wartość wskaźnika plenności badanych owiec. W tym zakresie maciorki z grupy doświadczalnej były o ponad 32 jednostki procentowe lepsze od owiec z grupy kontrolnej. Podobna tendencję obserwowano w odniesieniu do odchowu jagniąt oraz wartości wskaźników użytkowości rozrodczej. Zważone w 2. dniu po urodzeniu potomstwo obu grup matek miało zbliżoną masę ciała. Od 1. miesiąca życia obserwowano istotną przewagę jagniąt z grupy doświadczalnej zarówno w zakresie masy ciała, jak i przyrostów dobowych. Przy ostatnim ważeniu, w wieku 90 dni, jagnięta otrzymujące dodatek preparat KO były istotnie cięższe (P≤0,01) od swych rówieśników z grupy 1.W całym doświadczeniu jagnięta z grupy drugiej cechowały się o ok. 26 g większymi przyrostami (P≤0,05) w porównaniu z jagniętami z grupy pierwszej, przy czym wartości wskaźników tempa wzrostu zwierząt w obu grupach były zbliżone.

We studied the effect of maternal stress evoked by a severe stressor from the cues of predation risk during gestation on the growth of offspring in root volesMicrotus oeconomus Pallas, 1776. Body mass of both male and female offspring was significantly reduced in the period from birth to weaning. Females showed compensatory growth after weaning, whereas males maintained low body mass at weaning into adulthood. Maternal stress led to an elevated plasma corticosterone level in male offspring, but did not affect that of female offspring. Corticosterone levels remained elevated in males from stressed dams into adulthood. Increased levels of plasma corticosterone may have led to the inhibition of pituitary growth hormone and a chronically abnormal energy mobilization, considering the greater energy and metabolic requirements of male offspring, this may account for the sex-specific differences in compensatory growth. We suggest that in the high stress situation, endocrine-based sex-biased effects of maternal stress as a primary factor can lead to long-term physical and ecological consequences for male offspring.

The role of plasma testosterone in territorial behavior and breeding success, which has not previously been examined in nocturnal raptors, was studied in male Tawny Owls. Blood was collected for testosterone analysis during the territorial and nestling periods from owls breeding in nest boxes in Duna-Ipoly National Park, Hungary. Testosterone levels, defense activity, prey supply for broods and reproductive performance were related to breeding density and breeding experience of males. Defense activity, as measured by responses to broadcasted hooting calls and dummy owls during the territorial period, correlated positively with testosterone concentration. Males with more breeding experience had high testosterone levels and occupied better territories in dense breeding areas than less experienced males which had low testosterone concentrations. Mate fidelity was linked male quality: females were more likely to be tenacious in good territories. Testosterone levels dropped between territorial and feeding periods, however males with higher concentrations fed nestlings more frequently with high mass prey per night because food was more abundant in territories they had secured. We suggest that differences in testosterone levels in the provisioning period are related to the males' abilities to acquire territories of different quality.

W pracy badano wzajemne zależności pomiędzy poziomem testosteronu a zachowaniami terytorialnymi i jakością terytoriów samców puszczyka. Postawiono hipotezę, że na relacje te może mieć wpływ zagęszczenie par lęgowych oraz doświadczenie osobnika tj. liczba odbytych przez niego lęgów. Prace prowadzono w lasach liściastych na terenie Parku Narodowego Duna-Ipoly na Węgrzech. Do badań wybrano ptaki gniazdujące w skrzynkach lęgowych na wysokości <300 i > 500 m. n. p. m., gdyż tereny te różniły się zagęszczeniami (Tab. 1). Samce i samice były indywidualnie znakowane. Samce łapano w okresie jesieni i na początku okresu lęgowego, pobierano im krew i w plazmie oznaczano poziom testosteronu. Mierzono reakcję samców na playback oraz wypchanego osobnika, oraz określano liczbę i masę przynoszonej do gniazda zdobyczy, a także liczbę piskląt opuszczających gniazdo. Analizowane samce podzielono ze względu na doświadczenie lęgowe na te gniazdujące po raz pierwszy lub drugi na badanym terenie i te, które odbyły więcej niż dwa lęgi. Stwierdzono, że samce z mniejszym doświadczeniem lęgowym były stwierdzane częściej na terenie z małym zagęszczeniem (Tab. 1). Samce gniazdujące w dużym zagęszczeniu najczęściej pozostawały z tą samą samicą, także bardziej doświadczone samce rzadziej zmieniały partnerki. Zarówno w niskich i wysokich zagęszczeniach samce nie gniazdujące wcześniej na badanym terenie miały najniższy poziom testosteronu, natomiast najwyższy te, których lęgi stwierdzano od co najmniej dwóch lat (Fig. 1). Niezależnie od zagęszczenia doświadczone samce reagowały szybciej na playback i wypchanego ptaka (Tab. 3). Poziom testosteronu był wyższy w okresie zajmowania terytoriów na jesieni (wrzesień-listopad) niż na początku okresu lęgowego, w obu okresach był wyższy dla ptaków występujących w wyższych zagęszczeniach i wyższy dla samców, które gniazdowały na badanym terenie co najmniej już dwukrotnie (Fig. 2, Tab. 4, 6). Samce gniazdujące w wyższym zagęszczeniu miały wyższy poziom testosteronu, przynosiły więcej pokarmu o większej masie całkowitej i wyprowadzały więcej piskląt niż samce występujące w terenie z małym zagęszczeniem (Tab. 5). Autorzy sugerują, że wyższy poziom testosteronu u bardziej doświadczonych samców jest związany z ich zdolnością do uzyskania terytoriów wyższej jakości.

Climate variability greatly affects animals through direct and indirect effects. Animals with slow reproductive adaptation to ecological changes such as large mammals are likely to have evolved mechanisms to anticipate early such impacts of climate variability on the environment. One of the adaptive mechanisms between reproductive costs and benefits in mammals affects parental investment through biases in sex ratio. Deer might be likely to show an early detection of climate variability because conception takes place in early autumn, but the main raising cost in deer concerns lactation, which takes place at the end of the following spring. The aim of this paper is to assess whether there is a relationship between global indices of climate variability such as El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and sex ratio of a captive population of deer. Results showed that there was a negative correlation (r=−0.65) between sex ratio and ENSO indices between 1996 and 2008. El Niño enhances drier conditions during the summer in the Iberia Peninsula, which in turn favours a female bias. Results also suggest that the mechanism of early detection of climate variability exerts a strong effect on female reproductive physiology because the long-term stability of food resources in our setting has not markedly reduced it.

The study was carried out with 51 game pheasants derived from parents that were fed during the reproductive period with a commercial feed mixture (25 birds) or feed mixture and whole maize grain (26 birds). Pheasants were kept in a confined facility, without regard to sex, in cages on plastic mesh floor for the first three weeks and in pens on straw later on. During the study, offspring received commercial feed mixtures for pheasants or turkeys. The introduction of whole maize grain in the ration of parent pheasants reduced the body weight of their offspring except at 12 weeks of age. In addition, it caused significant decreases in the length of trunk with neck, lower thigh and shank, and chest circumference in 4-week-old pheasants, and in the length of trunk with neck, trunk and lower thigh in 18-week-old birds. Dressing percentage was high in both groups and exceeded 72%. The proportion of breast muscles was higher in the carcasses of pheasants derived from parents fed a low-protein diet with whole maize grain (31.0 vs. 29.0%). Areverse relationship was found for the proportion of leg muscles in the carcass with neck (23.5 vs. 24.0%). The proportion of skin with subcutaneous fat was similar in both experimental groups (6.4 vs. 6.3%).

Badania przeprowadzono na 51 bażantach łownych pochodzących po rodzicach żywionych w okresie reprodukcji przemysłową mieszanką paszową (25 osobników) lub mieszanką paszową i całym ziarnem kukurydzy (26 osobników). Ptaki utrzymywano w pomieszczeniu zamkniętym, bez podziału na płeć, przez pierwsze trzy tygodnie w skrzyniach na podłodze z plastikowej siatki, a następnie w kojcach na słomie. W okresie oceny bażanty potomne żywiono przemysłowymi mieszankami paszowymi dla bażantów lub indyków. Wprowadzenie całego ziarna kukurydzy w dawce pokarmowej bażantów rodzicielskich wpłynęło na zmniejszenie masy ciała ich potomstwa, z wyjątkiem 12. tygodnia życia. Ponadto spowodowało istotne zmniejszenie długości: tułowia z szyją, podudzi i skoków oraz obwodu klatki piersiowej u bażantów w wieku 4 tygodni, a u ptaków 18-tygodniowych długości: tułowia z szyją, tułowia i podudzi. Wydajność rzeźna u ptaków obu grup była duża i przekraczała 72%. Procentowy udział mięśni piersiowych był większy w tuszkach bażantów pochodzących po rodzicach karmionych dawką z obniżonym poziomem białka zawierającą całe ziarno kukurydzy (31,0 vs 29,0%). Odwrotną prawidłowość stwierdzono dla udziału mięśni nóg w tuszce z szyją (23,5 vs 24,0%). Udział skóry z tłuszczem podskórnym w obu grupach doświadczalnych był podobny (6,4 vs 6,3%).
