Utilization of non protein nitrogen by rabbits

Creator:: Mathius, I-Wayan
Abstract:: Several studies have been conducted to examine the utilization of non-protein nitrogen by the New Zealand White rabbit. Soybean meal (SBM) or urea added to a low protein (13% CP) diet and a positive control diet were fed to does and their offspring during a nine month experiment. Urea and...

Utilization of high roughage diets by rabbits

Creator:: Pote, Linda Marie Wayland.
Abstract:: A series of experiments were conducted to determine the utilization of fibrous feeds by the rabbit. A review of literature was performed to ascertain the results of similar studies. The first two experiments involved various levels of alfalfa substituted for corn or barley. Results indicated that a 50 percent alfalfa...

Temporal effects of Dexamethasone on skeletal muscle protein metabolism in rabbits

Creator:: Yeh, Jan-ying
Abstract:: Glucocorticoids are growth-inhibiting steroids. They have been reported to reduce muscle growth by reducing protein synthesis. However, their actions on muscle protein degradation remain equivocal. Glucocorticoids have been reported to transiently increase muscle protein degradation, to not affect this process and to reduce muscle protein degradation. Reasons for these conflicting...

Survival, movements and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) on the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon and northwestern Nevada

Creator:: Crawford, Justin A.
Abstract:: I investigated survival, movements, home range sizes, and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) in southeastern Oregon and northwestern Nevada from June 2005 to June 2007. I trapped 298 rabbits on four sites and fitted each with radio transmitters. More than 13,000 locations of telemetered rabbits were recorded. I...

Potential barriers to movements and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) after experimental translocation

Creator:: Lawes, Timothy J. (Timothy James)
Abstract:: I assessed potential barriers to dispersal using homing tendency and investigated the movements and settlement site selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) after short distance translocations in southeastern Oregon from June – December 2008. I captured, radio marked, and translocated 59 pygmy rabbits 1-2 km across landscapes with (1) continuous...

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) production in tropical microcosms fertilized with rabbit excreta

Creator:: Franco, Luis
Abstract:: This investigation explored the use of microcosms as a tool for studying the dynamics of tropical aquaculture ponds. The potential use of rabbit excreta as a pond fertilizer in integrated farming systems was also investigated. Twelve insulated fiber glass tanks were utilized as microcosms to simulate earthen ponds. Seven hand-sexed...

Isolation and partial characterization of a cultivable rabbit calicivirus, RaCv Ory-1

Creator:: Keefer, Nathan K.
Abstract:: This report describes the partial characterization of the first cultivable calicivirus isolated from a European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), named rabbit calicivirus Oryctolagus-1 and abbreviated RaCv Ory-1. RaCv Ory-1 was isolated from juvenile feeder rabbits displaying symptoms of diarrhea. Absence of neutralization by type specific neutralizing antibodies for 40 caliciviruses and...

Habitat and distribution of pygmy rabbits (Sylvilagus idahoensis) in Oregon

Creator:: Weiss, Nondor T.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to determine the location and extent of populations of pygmy rabbits in Oregon, and to describe several biotic and physical components within communities that include pygmy rabbits. Interpretation of aerial photographs, and information obtained from soil maps and interviews with biologists and area residents,...

Evaluation of tree forage as a nontraditional feedstuff for small livestock

Creator:: Ayers, Anne Christine
Abstract:: Five experiments were conducted to evaluate tree forage as a feedstuff for small livestock, using the foliage of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) and hybrid poplar (Populus spp.). In the first trial, rabbits were fed diets containing 40% alfalfa (control), and 10%, 20% and 40% poplar leaves (PL) from untrimmed or...
