Animal Nutrition and Physiology

This cluster of papers focuses on the nutrition, gut health, and production aspects of animals, particularly poultry and swine. It covers topics such as amino acids, gut microbiota, probiotics, antibiotic alternatives, digestive health, feed additives, heat stress, intestinal barrier function, and enzyme supplementation in animal diets.

198,081 works

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
