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...

Influence of supplement composition on utilization of low-quality, cool-season forages by beef cattle

Creator:: McGuire, Dustin L.
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of supplement composition on intake and digestibility of a low-quality (< 6% CP), cool-season forage, as well as cow performance. Treatments included a non-supplemented control (CON), corn (approximately 8% CP), corn and urea (LU = corn + 0.09 mg/kg BW urea, approximately...

Nutritional strategies to improve the reproductive performance of beef females

Creator:: Cappellozza, Bruno Ieda
Abstract:: In the first set of studies, 2 experiments evaluated the influence of supplement composition on ruminal forage disappearance, performance, and physiological responses of Angus × Hereford cattle consuming a low-quality, cool-season forage (8.7 % CP and 57 % TDN). In Exp. 1, 6 rumen-fistulated steers housed in individual pens were...

The role of the plasminogen activator system in the etiology of ovarian follicular cysts in dairy cattle

Creator:: McNeel, Anthony Kent
Abstract:: Cystic ovarian disease (COD) is an anovulatory condition in cattle that afflicts between 6-18% of all dairy cows in the US. Ovulation is dependent on the plasminogen activator (PA) family of proteases and protease inhibitor for proteolysis, culminating in follicular rupture. Failure of the follicle to ovulate suggests an aberration...

Mycotoxicoses in domestic livestock: toxicity of ergot alkaloids in domestic poultry and fusariotoxins in beef cattle

Creator:: Roberts, Heaven Le A.
Abstract:: Mycotoxins are food-borne toxins produced by molds which are commonly found on animal feeds of economic significance. Toxic doses of these compounds vary widely across livestock species, and even within a species when considered across all stages of development and production. This variation is due to the wide range of...

Growth and carcass merit of purebred Jersey steer calves finished on grain-based diets at two different energy levels

Creator:: Tschida, Garrett L.
Abstract:: Purebred Jersey steers are often overlooked for beef production due to the perceived poor growth and production. Currently dairy persons marketing their steer offspring are receiving minimal compensation due to lack of demand by beef feeders and a saturated veal market. Twenty purebred Jersey steers were used to evaluate lifetime...

Use of Platelet Rich Plasma for the Treatment of Subclinical Endometritis in Beef Heifers

Creator:: Puttman, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Postpartum uterine inflammation (endometritis) is not uncommon in beef cattle, resulting in infertility and culling. Prolonged calving may contribute to the increased incidence of endometritis in heifers. Commonly used methods to treat endometritis in beef cattle include intrauterine antibiotics and/or hormone injections, which can result in meat residues. Platelet rich...

Impacts of Stocking Density on Development and Puberty Attainment of Replacement Beef Heifers

Creator:: Schubach, Kelsey M.
Abstract:: The following experiment presented herein compared growth, physical activity, stress-related responses, and puberty attainment in heifers reared on high- (HIDENS) or low-stocking densities (LOWDENS). Sixty Angus x Hereford heifers were ranked by age and BW (210 ± 2 d and 220 ± 2 kg, respectively) on d 0, and assigned...

Prescribed fire effects on resource selection by cattle in mesic sagebrush steppe. Part 1: Spring grazing

Creator:: Clark, Patrick E., Lee, Jaechoul, Ko, Kyungduk, Nielson, Ryan M., Johnson, Douglas E., Ganskopp, David C., Chigbrow, Joe, Pierson, Fredrick B., and Hardegree, Stuart P.
Abstract:: Prescribed fire is commonly applied world-wide as a tool for enhancing habitats and altering resource-selection patterns of grazing animals. A scientific basis for this practice has been established in some ecosystems but its efficacy has not been rigorously evaluated on mesic sagebrush steppe. Beginning in 2003, resource-selection patterns of beef...

Drivers of plant community dynamics in sagebrush steppe ecosystems : cattle grazing, heat and water stress

Creator:: Reisner, Michael D.
Abstract:: Sagebrush steppe ecosystems are one of the most widespread but endangered ecosystems in North America. A diverse array of human-related stressors has gradually compromised these ecosystems' resilience to disturbance and invasion by Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass). The role of the foundational shrub Artemisia as a driver of herbaceous community structure and...
