Impact of ethanol and heat stress–dependent effect of ultra-diluted Arnica montana 6 cH on in vitro embryo production in cattle   In this work Novaes et al., (2020) studied the effect of Arnica montana 6 cH during normal and heat stress (HS) conditions on oocyte competence; the results showed that the effect was different according to the conditions. It is an important article.       Novaes, M. A. S., Lima, L. F., Sá, N. A. R., Ferreira, A. C. A., Paes, V. M., Souza, J. F., ... & Figueiredo, J. R.

Temperature-humidity index – an indicator for prediction of heat stress in dairy cows   In this review Dimov et al., 2020 wrote about the factors that induce heat stress (HS), what HS induces in the animal body and the importance of Temperature Humidity Index (THI) as an alert. It is an important review.   Dimov, D., Penev, T., & Marinov, I. (2020). Temperature-humidity index–an indicator for prediction of heat stress in dairy cows.
