Preliminary investigation of artificial incubation of emu eggs, and alternative feeds and management techniques for emu chicks up to ten weeks of age

Creator:: Allen, Carol Ann
Abstract:: A preliminary study was conducted to establish baseline data for emu artificial egg incubation and emu chick growth and management. Three experiments examined factors affecting hatchability of emu eggs that occur prior to and during artificial incubation. Characteristics analyzed were egg storage duration, hen age, egg weight, egg index, shell...

Influence of dietary selenium on the distribution of tritium-labeled vitamin E in the rate

Creator:: Cheeke, Peter R.
Abstract:: A series of four trials were conducted to determine the influence of selenium supplementation of a selenium- and vitamin E-deficient basal diet on the absorption, excretion, tissue distribution and placental transfer of a single dose of tritium-labeled α-tocopherol in the rat. In the first trial, the effect of supplementation of...

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...

The ability of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation to minimize toxic effects of high-alkaloid tall fescue straw in beef cattle

Creator:: Merrill, Melissa L.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation (YCW) on forage intake and digestibility, ruminal fermentation characteristics, serum prolactin and prolactin stores, and milk production in beef cattle consuming high-alkaloid tall fescue straw. In Exp. 1, 16 Angus x Hereford ruminally cannulated steers (200...

The effect of certain production factors and rates of gain on carcass characteristics of beef steers

Creator:: Thompson, Kenneth Earl
Abstract:: The purpose of the present study was to determine the association of initial weight, average daily gain, days on feed, percent total digestible nutrients (TDN) and percent digestible protein in the ration with USDA carcass grade, marbling score, conformation score, back fat thickness and area of longissimus dorsi of beef...

Performance of three inbred lines of Herford cattle and their linecrosses

Creator:: Munji, Marcus Tebid
Abstract:: Three inbred and relatively unrelated lines of Hereford cattle (1. Lionheart, 2. Prince, and 3. David) developed at the Corvallis branch of the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station as part of the W-1 project of the Western States were crossed annually from 1963 through 1965 inclusive. Data on 137 inbred and...

Some genetic and environmental factors affecting weaning weights of lambs

Creator:: Dahmen, J. J. (Jerome John), 1919-
Abstract:: Eight purebred rams (four Suffolk and four Panama) previously selected as high and low on the basis of post-weaning performance feed test of 84 days were used each of three years. Each of the rams was mated to approximately 25 grade Panama ewes each year. One ram and 25 ewes...

The fatty acid composition of certain bovine tissues

Creator:: Thompson, Robert Charles, 1927-
Abstract:: In this study subcutaneous, inter- and intramuscular fats from 42 Hereford steers were analyzed for their fatty acid composition using gas-liquid chromatography. The same tissues were analyzed from one pair each of identical twins of Angus and Shorthorn breeding. Muscle and liver lipids from these latter four animals were fractionated...

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...
