“…Garrigue (19) also reported decreased reproductive organ weight in mice exposed to high temperature (40 to 42 • C) for 60 days. This observation disagreed with the finding of Ngoula et al (20) who recorded no significant differences in reproductive relative organ weights of younger guinea pigs (aged 2.3 to 3 months) exposed to 45 • C. Thus, a temperature increase of 1 • C in older male cavies (aged 3 to 4 years) after 60 days of exposure would result in heat stress, which impairs their reproductive organ cells and subsequently reduces their weights. According to Meade et al (21), aged individuals are more susceptible to heat-adverse effects than young.…”

“…Our analysis shows that the predominant species in the composition of diets corresponded to grasses (Poaceae), local forage resources (Asteraceae), tree resources, legumes (Leguminoseae) and kitchen waste. These results agree with a review article developed by Simtowe et al (2017) in sub-Saharan African countries (Côte d'Ivoire, Benin, Cameroon, Gabon, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Tanzania) in which the authors reported that the predominant C. porcellus (Ayagirwe et al, 2018;Faihun et al, 2017;Franklin et al, 2017;Kampemba et al, 2017;Kouadio Kouakou et al, 2015;Ngoula et al, 2017;Ngoupayou et al, 1995;Simtowe et al, 2017).…”

“…It production provides a regular supply of highquality animal protein which contributes to food security and also provides a small but consistent income to producers (Ngoula et al, 2017). Currently, food security initiatives for small producers consist of prioritizing interventions to support local research and innovation (Rybak et al, 2018).…”

The Cavia porcellus L. systems implemented by small producers in Colombia have been slow to apply the processes of development and incorporation of feeding practices and technology in nutritional support. The objective of this study was to determine the feeding practices and technology in nutritional support implemented and projected in the C. porcellus L. systems by the producers. Four components were evaluated in 404 C. porcellus L. units and 29 focus groups: demography, identification of the production unit, implemented feeding practices, technology in nutrition and feeding, and the C. porcellus L. producers' perspectives. A Pearson Chi-squared test, a Tukey’s T-test, and a Multiple Linear Regression were used to evaluate the differences between regions using SPSS software version 20. The average area of C. porcellus L. -producing units corresponded to 0.35 ha (Nariño) and 0.17 ha (Putumayo). The predominant food base was forage (67%) produced on the farm (83%). There were significant differences between regions, with a p < 0.05 in food base, forage cultivation area, forage conservation feeding practices, type of fertilization, and the group of animals supplemented. The use of technology such as feed based on kitchen waste and supplements was used by producers in the Putumayo region (p > 0.05) most frequently. Our data show that C. porcellus L. systems in the study area not only have a high potential in the diversity of the forage supplements that makes up the diets but also in the development and implementation of feeding practices and technology in nutrition and animal feeding.

“…The anti-oxidant properties of various plants on animal reproduction have been studied. The studied plants include Allium sativum aqueous extracts (Raji et al, 2012), leaves of Tribulus terrestris (Mossa et al, 2015), leaves of Momordica charantia (Adewale et al, 2014), Phoenix dactylifera and Nasturtium officinale (Adaay and Mosa, 2012), essential oils of Syzygium aromaticum (Boudou et al, 2013) and guava leaves (Ngoula et al, 2017). Results obtained were interesting for some researchers while others reported a less significant impact of the extracts on reproductive performance.…”

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of Hutch leaves Ethanolic Extract (EE) on reproductive parameters, toxicity biochemical markers and oxidative stress indicators in does exposed to Potassium Dichromate (PD). Thirty-six nulliparous sexually mature does of eight months; weighing 2.80-3.00 kg were divided into six groups of six animals, comparable in terms of Body Weight (BW). After mating, group T0 received distilled water, while groups T0-, VC100, EE100, EE200 and EE400 were treated with 40 mg/BW of PD. Also, group VC100 received 100 mg/BW of vitamin C, while groups EE100, EE200 and EE400 received respectively 100, 200 and 400 mg/BW of EE of hutch leaves. Results showed that urea, creatinine, total cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase were significantly higher; with lower total protein levels in T0-concerning the other groups. The follicle-stimulating hormone was significantly lower in T0-as compared to the other groups. Catalase and total peroxidase activities decreased significantly while malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase increased significantly in T0-than in other groups. From these results, EE of Hutch leaves has protected does against the toxic effects of PD. It can therefore be used to improve female reproduction.
