Effect of feeding corn silage on semen quality and spermatogenesis of bulls.

Bovine reproduction, including male fertility traits like semen quality, are influenced by a variety of different factors like breed, nutrition, environment, and feeding management. Diet in a crucial determinant, and in this regard although corn silage is generally considered to be a favorable roughage for fattening meat type breeds, it tends to have a negative impact on semen quality. In the current study, alfalfa hay was substituted by corn silage as a roughage source in the diet of bulls to investigate its effects on the fertility of breeding bulls.

Molecular dynamics simulation analysis of alpha-cobra toxin docked with phytochemical compounds.

It is of interest to document data on the molecular dynamics simulation analysis of alpha-cobratoxin docked with phytochemical compounds. This can be used as effective drug candidates against the snake and scorpion venom. It should be noted experimental verification is needed to further validate the current data.
