Ruminal Degradation Of Switchgrass, Big Bluestem, And Smooth Bromegrass Leaf Proteins, Daren D. Redfearn, Lowell E. Moser, Steven S. Waller, Terry J. Klopfenstein
Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications
Two in situ protein disappearance experiments were conducted to determine disappearance rates of leaf protein fractions and characterize individual leaf protein fractions that escaped ruminal degradation. Fresh leaf blades of two warm-season grasses, switchgrass (Panicum uirgatum L. 1 and big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii Vitman), and one cool-season grass, smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.), were included in Exp. 1. Only warm season grasses were used in Exp. 2. Leaves were harvested from greenhouse-grown plants, placed in polyester bags, and incubated up to 48 h in situ in three ruminally fistulated steers fed diets of warm season grass hay. …

Quantifying Developmental Morphology Of Perennial Grasses, K. J. Moore, Lowell E. Moser
Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications
Perennial forage grasses can be viewed as modular organisms. The phytomer is usually considered the basic unit of the grass plant and consists of a leaf blade and sheath, the internode, the node, and the associated axillary bud below the point of sheath attachment. The tiller is a collection of phytomers differentiated from a single apical meristem. The grass plant is a group of tillers that ultimately arise from a single zygote and are of the same genotype. A grass sward is a population of individual plants, often genetically related, but usually of unique genotypes. The developmental morphology of perennial …

INTSORMIL Impacts and Bulletins
USAID conducted an overall evaluation of the Collaborative Research Support Programs (CRSPs), including lNTSORMIL, between May and July 1994. According to the "CRSP Evaluation Scope of Work" developed by USAID, the goal of this evaluation was to provide an objective assessment of the degree to which each of the CRSPs has had an impact on increasing agricultural production and development, and improving natural resource management through the development and dissemination of new and/or more appropriate sustainable agriculture technologies. The evaluation also assessed the extent to which the CRSP framework has responded to past Agency expectations and objectives and if the …
Life History And Description Of Immature Stages Of Euaresta Stigmatica (Diptera: Tephritidae) On Ambrosia Spp. (Asteraceae) In Southern California, David H. Headrick, Richard D. Goeden, Jeffrey A. Teerink
Life History And Description Of Immature Stages Of Euaresta Stigmatica (Diptera: Tephritidae) On Ambrosia Spp. (Asteraceae) In Southern California, David H. Headrick, Richard D. Goeden, Jeffrey A. Teerink
Horticulture and Crop Science
Euaresta stigmatica Coquillett is bivoltine and nearly monophagous on four native ragweeds, Ambrosia spp. (Asteraceae), in the southwestern United States. In southern California, larvae of the spring (F1) generation develop singly in and feed on one or both ovules of young fruiting involucres of Ambrosia ilicifolia (Gray) Payne, with a small proportion infesting the staminate involucres. Adults emerge after ≈1 mo, with their reproductive organs immature. The F2 generation develops in the involucres of fall-blooming Ambrosia acanthicarpa Hooker. The egg is described and illustrated for the first time for any species of Euaresta. First, second, and …

Behaviors Of Female Eretmocerus Sp. Nr. Californicus (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) Attacking Bemisia Argentifolii (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) On Sweet Potato, David H. Headrick, Thomas S. Bellows, Jr., Thomas M. Perring
Horticulture and Crop Science
Behaviors of Eretmocerus sp. nr. californicus Howard females on Bemisia argentifolii Bellows & Perring infesting sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lain, were described and quantified. Walking speeds of up to 1.3 mm/s were calculated for females searching for host whitefly nymphs on sweet potato leaves. Females encountered all host stages during searching with approximately the same relative frequency as their relative abundance (average of 17.03% of hosts available were encountered). Females also arrested and antennated all of the host stages with the same relative frequency as their encounter rate (62.8%). Females showed a clear and significant preference for probing second …

Split-Root Nutrition Of Sweetpotato In Hydroponic Systems, M. A. Sherif, P. A. Loretan, A. A. Trotman, D. G. Mortley, J. Y. Lu, Lauren C. Garner
Horticulture and Crop Science
Nutrient film technique (NFT) and deep water culture (DWC) hydroponic systems were used in a split-root study of the effect of four treatments on sweetpotato yield, the translocation of assimilates, and microbial population count. ‘TU-155’ cuttings (15 cm) were prerooted for 30 days in sand using deionized water and a modified half-Hoagland (MHH) solution. After 30 days, the plants were removed, and the roots of each were cleaned and split evenly between two sides of a channel (each 15 cm deep by 15 cm wide by 1.2 m long), four plants per channel. Replicated treatments were: MHH/MHH; MHH/Air, MHH/deionized water …
Introduction From The Changing Prairie: North American Grasslands, Anthony Joern, Kathleen H. Keeler
Introduction From The Changing Prairie: North American Grasslands, Anthony Joern, Kathleen H. Keeler
School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications
Preserving remaining North American grasslands requires a multiability approach. In this book, we investigate three aspects of an admittedly larger problem: (1) how we as humans perceive grasslands; (2) the ecology of grasslands, in order to define the framework within which conservation and preservation efforts must operate; and (3) conservation issues. Additional sociological, economic, philosophical, and cultural considerations will provide important additional insights to preserving and managing grasslands, but are not included here. By restricting our focus to only three issues, we feel that we can provide a basic, but appropriate, understanding of grassland ecosystems for the prairie enthusiast. This …
Environmental Modification Of Hard Red Winter Wheat Flour Protein Composition, Robert A. Graybosch, C. J. Peterson, P. Stephen Baenziger, D. R. Shelton
Environmental Modification Of Hard Red Winter Wheat Flour Protein Composition, Robert A. Graybosch, C. J. Peterson, P. Stephen Baenziger, D. R. Shelton
United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
The intrinsic processing quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars is modified significantly by cultural conditions and climate. In an attempt to understand the biochemical basis of such variation, environmental modification of flour protein content and composition was measured. Thirty hard red winter wheat cultivars and experimental lines were grown at 17 Nebraska environments during 1990 and 1991. Environmental conditions, including grain filling duration, temperature and relative humidity during grain filling, were monitored. Grain yield and test weight also were determined as environmental indicators. Significant linear correlations between flour protein content, as measured by near-infrared spectroscopy, were observed only …

Umingmakstrongylus Pallikuukensis Gen. Nov. Et Sp. Nov. (Nematoda: Protostrongylidae) From Muskoxen, Ovibos Moschafus, In The Central Canadian Arctic, With Comments On Biology And Biogeography, Eric P. Hoberg, Lydden Polley, A. Gunn, J. S. Nishi
United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
Umingmakstrongylus pallikuukensis gen. nov. et sp. nov. is established for a protostrongylid nematode in muskoxen, Ovibos moschatus, from the Kitikmeot Region (central Arctic) of the Northwest Territories, Canada. It is distinguished from Cystocaulus and other Muelleriinae by characters that include the following: males: deeply incised, bilobed bursa, independent externodorsal rays, telamon composed of distal transverse plate, absence of falcate crurae, and spicules not distally split; females: absence of provagina; and first-stage larvae: presence of three cuticular folds on the tail. The great length of females (468 mm) and males (171 mm) is exceptional among the Protostrongylidae. Pathognomonic lesions include …
Coordination Of Adsorbed Boron: A Ftir Spectroscopic Study, Chunming Su, Donald L. Suarez
Coordination Of Adsorbed Boron: A Ftir Spectroscopic Study, Chunming Su, Donald L. Suarez
United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
We studied B adsorption on amorphous aluminum and iron hydroxides, allophane, and kaolinite as a function of pH and initial B concentration. Boron adsorption lowered the point of zero charge of all four adsorbents, implying specific adsorption (inner-sphere complexation) of B. We provided novel information on the coordination of B adsorbed at mineral-water interfaces by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy. The ATR-FTIR spectra of interfacial B species were influenced by pH and mineral type. Strong trigonal B and weak tetrahedral B bands of the asymmetric stretching mode were observed on the difference spectra at pH

Endocrinology Of The Avian Reproductive System, Mary Ann Ottinger, Murray R. Bakst
Endocrinology Of The Avian Reproductive System, Mary Ann Ottinger, Murray R. Bakst
United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the avian reproductive system. Attention is given to the neuroendocrine regulation of hypothalamic and pituitary gland hormones as well as the target tissues regulated by these hormones. Emphasis is placed on the dynamics of the system and the effects of alterations resulting from environmental and other influences on the function of the reproductive system. The ovulatory cycle, oviduct, and shell gland are discussed relative to egg formation and the hormonal regulation of this process. Testicular function and the cellular bases for spermatogenesis and steroid production are also discussed.

Quantitative Mass Production Of Hydrotaea Aenescens (Diptera: Muscidae), Jerome Hogsette, Frank Washington
United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
A covered oviposition device was developed that allows collection of large numbers of Hydrotaea aenescens (Wiedemann) (formerly Ophyra aenescens) eggs. Eggs can be measured and known numbers added to larval rearing medium so this beneficial fly can be reared quantitatively for the first time. With the use of quantitative rearing techniques and a new diet consisting of 5 parts Gainesville house fly diet and 1 part meat and bone meal, H. aenescens can be mass-reared easily for biological control studies.
Variability In Soil Testing, Kenneth L. Wells, Vern Case
Variability In Soil Testing, Kenneth L. Wells, Vern Case
Agronomy Notes
Many factors can influence the accuracy of soil test results, ranging from field sampling technique, sample preparation, and quality control in the laboratory. Many people expect that if a field is sampled more than once, the soil test results should be identical. When identical results are not obtained from successive sampling, much concern about soil test reliability is of ten expressed.
We have analyzed soil test results from some controlled field experimental sites which help provide an understanding of variability which can occur naturally in the field, how various field sampling techniques influence soil test readings obtained, and how laboratories …

Kentucky County Soil Sample Summaries, Vern Case
Agronomy Notes
The UK Soil Testing Labs at Lexington and Princeton, KY test 50,000 to 60,000 soil samples each year. Samples are submitted through the county Extension offices for agronomic (Ag) crops, commercial horticulture, home garden/lawn, greenhouse media, and surface mining reclamation. The Mehlich III extractant (M-3) is used for routine determination of phosphorus (P), potassium (K),calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and zinc (Zn). Amounts of these nutrients extracted are determined by either ICP methodology or by color for P and atomic absorption for K, Ca, Mg and Zn. Soil pH is determined on a 1:1 soil:water mix using appropriate electrodes and pH …
An Evaluation Of Twelve Maturity Group Ii Soybean Varieties At Lexington, Kentucky, Larry J. Grabau, Colleen C. Steele
An Evaluation Of Twelve Maturity Group Ii Soybean Varieties At Lexington, Kentucky, Larry J. Grabau, Colleen C. Steele
Agronomy Notes
In both 1993 and 1994, the Kentucky Soybean Promotion Board funded an on-farm test of a small set of Maturity Group (MG) II varieties. Those studies showed that several MG II varieties were competitive with a high-yielding MG IV variety. However, other MG II varieties did not perform as well in those tests, indicating that variety selection is an important management consideration if this early maturing cropping system is to be successful in Kentucky soybean producers' fields. MG II varieties used in past University of Kentucky tests have been chosen based on their performance in university variety trials where such …

Sodium In Pasture Species And Grazing Livestock, C. T. Dougherty, Kenneth L. Wells, G. E. Mitchell
Agronomy Notes
Concern among some dairy nutritionists has recently been expressed that "high potassium" content of hay and silage is reducing milk production in some high-producing dairy herds. Alfalfa and grass hay and com and grass silage, which have been heavily fertilized, are the objects of this concern. The nutritional question being considered in this article is whether an animal diet excessively high in potassium (1

The Rare, Serpentine Endemic Streptanthus Morrisonii (Brassicaceae) Species Complex, Revisited Using Isozyme Analysis, Rebecca W. Dolan
The Rare, Serpentine Endemic Streptanthus Morrisonii (Brassicaceae) Species Complex, Revisited Using Isozyme Analysis, Rebecca W. Dolan
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
The Streptanthus morrisonii (Brassicaceae) complex is a group of six narrowly-distributed obligate serpentine endemic taxa whose habitat is threatened by geothermal development. Isozyme analysis of this little-studied complex supports the delineation of two species, S. morrisonii and S. brachiatus, but is at odds with the treatment of two subspecies based on morphology. These results may be influenced by small sample sizes but genetic studies of other Streptanthus taxa have shown patterns of relatedness that often transgress subspecies boundaries based on morphology. The present study further shows that members of the S. morrisonii complex share high genetic identity values (mean …
The Royal Catchfly (Silene Regia; Caryophyllaceae) In Indiana, Rebecca W. Dolan
The Royal Catchfly (Silene Regia; Caryophyllaceae) In Indiana, Rebecca W. Dolan
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
Botanist Thomas Nuttall called the royal catchfly, Silene regia, "one of the most splendid species in existence." This red-flowered, hummingbird-pollinated member of the Caryophyllaceae is a perennial herb of prairies and glades. Because of the conversion of much of its former habitat to agriculture, the royal catchfly is considered threatened in Indiana. The species' historical and present-day distribution in the State, documenting the current status of all known locations, including population sizes and co-occurring species, are reported in this paper. Only 8 of the documented 23 historical locations still support the plant. No populations occur in dedicated nature preserves or …

Lime Source And Rate Effects On Corn Production On An Acid Soil, Kenneth L. Wells, James E. Dollarhide, V. W. Case
Agronomy Notes
Quality of lime available for use in neutralizing soil acidity can be quite variable in Kentucky. This sometimes raises questions of which locally available source is most effective. Information about the quality of individual lime sources is necessary to make such determinations.

Getting The Lay Of The Land: Introducing North American Native Grasslands, Anthony Joern, Kathleen H. Keeler
School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications
The expected catastrophic extinction of species (already under way in many places) will alter the planet’s biological diversity so profoundly that, at the known rate of extinction, it will take millions of years to recover. Yet few ecologists study extinction. Indeed, very little ecology deals with any processes that last more than a few years, involve more than a handful of species, and cover an area of more than a few hectares. The temporal, spatial and organizational scales of most ecological studies are such that one can read entire issues of major journals and see no hint of impending catastrophe. …
