  • Use of nondestructive spectroscopy to assess chlorophyll and nitrogen in fresh leaves

    Creator:
    Ding, Pinghai
    Abstract:
    Four aspects of factors influencing the accuracy of nondestructive chlorophyll (Chl) and nitrogen (N) measurement in fresh leaves were studied: (1) optimum wavelength (OW) identification; (2) indices development and evaluation; (3) influence of leaf properties; and (4) influence of meter parameters and sampling technique. Results were used to develop indices...

  • A distributed local computer network : FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat NETwork)

    Creator:
    Kang, Yong Joong
    Abstract:
    FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat) is a communication subnet architecture utilizing a hybrid application of point-topoint and broadcast communications to achieve a high degree of network performance. This objective is achieved through utilizing a dual bus structure: a data bus and a control bus. The data bus consists...

  • 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...
