Determination of intake and digestibility of pasture forages using conventional and indicator techniques

Creator:

Alpan, Suleyman Orhan

Abstract:

Digestibility experiments were carried out with dairy heifers to determine the digestibility of orchard grass, Dactylis glomerata, and also to evaluate the accuracy of various indicator techniques in pasture digestibility experiments. Chromic oxide was used as an external indicator to predict fecal dry matter output in three digestion trials. Cut...

Evaluation of methods of progeny testing in tall fescue seed production (Festuca arundinacea, Schreb.)

Creator:

Thomas, Johnny Ray

Abstract:

Seventeen parental clones were selected, from 9,000 plants, on the basis of self-sterility, seed and forage yield potential using phenotypic ratings, crude protein and chromogen content. The parental clones were divided into two populations based on date of maturity. Group I was intermediate in maturity and had nine parental clones,...

Masters Thesis
Primary seismic waves near explosions

Creator:

Trembly, Lynn Dale

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with near source primary seismic waves generated by, the Gnome, Hardhat, Shoal and Haymaker underground nuclear explosions. Records of ground motion between 0.3 and 20.0 kilometers from the sources were analyzed in terms of displacement amplitude and energy variations with distance. The observed data have been...
