(1) Background: Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are known for their ability to protect
against numerous metabolic disorders. The consumption of oily fish is the main source of …

The beneficial effects of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFA) on human
health are widely known. Humans are rather inefficient in synthesizing n-3 LC-PUFA; thus …

Phytoplankton are the main source of energy and omega‐3 (n‐3) long‐chain essential fatty
acids (EFA) in aquatic ecosystems. Their growth and biochemical composition are affected …

Once-abundant aerial insectivores, such as the Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor), have
declined steadily in the past several decades, making it imperative to understand all aspects …

Climate change can decouple resource supply from consumer demand, with the potential to
create phenological mismatches driving negative consequences on fitness. However, the …

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an essential, omega-3, long-chain polyunsaturated fatty
acid that is a key component of cell membranes and plays a vital role in vertebrate brain …

Ecologists studying bird foraging ecology have generally focused on food quantity over
quality. Emerging work suggests that food quality, in terms of highly unsaturated omega‐3 …

The nutritional diversity of resources can affect the adaptive evolution of consumer
metabolism and consumer diversification. The omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty …

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are divided into n-3 and n-6 classes, are
essential for good health in humans and many animals. They are metabolised to lipid …

Identifying the composition of avian diets is a critical step in characterizing the roles of birds
within ecosystems. However, because birds are a diverse taxonomic group with equally …
