Forage utilization by rabbits

Creator:: Harris, David Joseph
Abstract:: Several experiments were conducted to evaluate various forages and forage levels for use in rabbit diets. Several tropical forages were evaluated for their potential in feeding rabbits. One of the tropical forages, Desmodium distortum produced better growth performance than alfalfa meal. The tropical forages were used to derive prediction equations...

Evaluation of bamboo as livestock forage and applications of Yucca schidigera and Quillaja saponaria products in agriculture

Creator:: Greenway, Stephanie L.
Abstract:: Byproducts of bamboo processing, such as leaves and branches, may have potential as a livestock feedstuff. The objectives of this study were to evaluate seasonal changes in proximate composition of several bamboo species and reed canarygrass, and subsequently determine the digestibility of bamboo in ponies. Monthly samples of Phyllostachys bissetii,...

Selenium effects and species differences in hepatic metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and other xenobiotics

Creator:: Shull, Lee R.
Abstract:: The metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and other drugs was studied with regard to nutritional status and species differences. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids which are biotransformed to severely toxic metabolites were isolated from tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea). Semi-purified alkaloid crystals containing five alkaloids (senecionine, seneciophylline, jacobine, jacoline, and jacozine) were prepared and found...

Evaluation of tropical forages and by-product feeds for rabbit production

Creator:: Raharjo, Yono C.
Abstract:: An evaluation was made on the nutritive value of tropical forages and by-product feeds for rabbit production. Digestibility of nutrient fractions, feed preferences, growth, combination of forages, supplementation of micro and macro nutrients and/or effects of drying temperature on the quality of four groups of forages, namely woody legumes (WL),...

Evaluation of meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) meal as a feedstuff for rabbits, poultry and sheep

Creator:: Throckmorton, John C.
Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) is a winter annual oilseed crop native to the Pacific Coast states. Seven experiments were conducted to evaluate extracted meadowfoam meal (MFM) as a feedstuff for poultry, rabbits and sheep. Three experiments were conducted to evaluate MFM as a protein supplement for broiler chicks and weanling rabbits....

Dietary factors influencing the toxicity of tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea) in animals

Creator:: Swick, Robert Alphonso
Abstract:: Senecio jacobaea (tansy ragwort) is a poisonous plant responsible for livestock deaths in the Pacific Northwest. Horses and cattle are susceptible, while sheep are resistant to the toxic action of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids which the plant contains. Hepatic enzymes are responsible for the biotransformation of pyrrolizidine alkaloids into tissue damaging...

Nutritional influences affecting senecio toxicity in laboratory animals

Creator:: Buckmaster, Gary Wayne
Abstract:: The objective of this research project was to evaluate the toxicity of local pyrrolizidine alkaloid containing plants and to examine the influence of dietary protein, with particular reference to the amino acid cysteine, upon this toxicity. Senecio vulgaris (common groundsel) was shown to be more toxic than Senecio jacobaea (tansy...

Vitamin E, selenium and tri-o-cresylphosphate interrelationships

Creator:: Shull, Lee R.
Abstract:: A two-part study was conducted to investigate some of the nutritional relationships between dietary tri-o-cresylphosphate (TOCP), a toxic stress material, and dietary vitamin E and selenium. In part one, growth rate of male weanling Long-Evans rats and day-old Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) was used to determine the protective action...
