Development and Application of Camelid Molecular Cytogenetic Tools

Creator:: Avila, Felipe, Das, Pranab J., Kutzler, Michelle, Owens, Elaine, Perelman, Polina, Rubes, Jiri, Hornak, Miroslav, Johnson, Warren, and Raudsepp, Terje
Abstract:: Cytogenetic chromosome maps offer molecular tools for genome analysis and clinical cytogenetics and are of particular importance for species with difficult karyotypes, such as camelids (2n = 74). Building on the available human-camel zoo-fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) data, we developed the first cytogenetic map for the alpaca (Lama pacos,...

Effects of alpha-linolenic and linoleic acids on timed AI reproductive performance in replacement beef heifers, Effects of α-linolenic and linoleic acids on timed AI reproductive performance in replacement beef heifers

Creator:: Thompson, Emily C.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to determine if supplementing linoleic or α-linolenic acids, and timing of supplementation around AI will alter supplemental intake, ADG, and serum progesterone (P4), cholesterol, and triglyceride concentrations in replacement Angus crossbred heifers. In yr 1, 54 heifers, stratified by age, were assigned to: barley...

Cellular characteristics of canine trophoblasts

Creator:: Sahlfeld, Laura
Abstract:: This research investigated the development of a novel canine model to study preeclampsia. Normal canine placental development has morphologic and histologic similarities to the shallow trophoblast invasion occurring with preeclampsia in humans, which makes the dog a particularly good choice for modeling this disease and will be an improvement on...

The Effects of Oxytocin on the PIP2 Pathway in Response to Progesterone and/or Estrogen

Creator:: Murray, Elizabeth and Stormshak, Fredrick
Abstract:: Oxytocin was confirmed to have an impact of the PIP2 breakdown in ovine endometrial tissue. This experiment took two groups of ovariectomized ewes (n=5) and administered a shortened estrus cycle hormone regiment. It was found that, independent of the hormone treatments, especially P4, OT caused a small increase in the...

Effects of camelina meal supplementation on ruminal forage degradability, performance, and physiological responses of beef cattle

Creator:: Cappellozza, Bruno Ieda
Abstract:: Three experiments compared ruminal, physiological, and performance responses of beef steers consuming hay ad libitum and receiving grain-based supplements with (CAM) or without (CO) inclusion of camelina meal. In Exp. 1, 9 steers fitted with ruminal cannulas received CAM (2.04 kg of DM/d) or CO (2.20 kg of DM/d). Steers...

Porcine zona pellucida immunocontraceptive vaccine for horses

Creator:: Bartell, Jennifer Ann
Abstract:: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) maintains a growing number of feral horses on public rangelands. With population growth rates as high as 22% annually, herds are exceeding their carrying capacity and millions of dollars are spent maintaining captured horses in holding facilities awaiting adoption. To manage the feral horse...

Effects of prostaglandin F2alpha on neutrophil populations, uterine health and reproductive performance in dairy cows, Effects of prostaglandin F₂α on neutrophil populations, uterine health and reproductive performance in dairy cows

Creator:: Lulay, Adrienne McCracken
Abstract:: Incidences of uterine infections in dairy cattle are high between parturition and Day 21 postpartum. Dairy cows with uterine infections are at risk for prolonged periods of days open and multiple services before becoming pregnant. Neutrophils are the first wave of immune system defense against uterine contamination. Neutrophil function seems...

Improving the nutritional and textural properties of dairy products by feeding Holstein cows processed flaxseed

Creator:: Oeffner, Scott P.
Abstract:: There is growing public concern about the high proportion of saturated fatty acids in milk fat; however, feed intake, energy partitioning toward milk synthesis, and milk fat concentrations can decrease when cows are fed high concentrations of unsaturated lipids. The objective of this study was to identify the optimal rate...

Effect of feeding various dosages of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product on health, reproduction, and costs in multiparous dairy cows

Creator:: Shriver-Munsch, Christine M.
Abstract:: The transition period is a time of increased nutritional demands and risk to metabolic and infectious diseases in dairy cows due to a suppressed immune system. These problems lead to reproductive challenges, increased culling rates, and decreased milk production postpartum, which leads to decreased profits. Feeding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) or...

Yeast culture improves lactation performance and metabolic status in transition dairy cows

Creator:: Ramsing, Erica M.
Abstract:: Yeast culture supplementation has been used to improve the health and performance of dairy cows for the last 25 years. To evaluate the effect of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (Diamond V Original XP™) on the health and production of peripartal Holstein cows, two research studies were conducted. The first...
