Effect Of Dry, High-Moisture And Reconstituted Normal And High-Lysine Corn Diets And Particle Size On Energy And Nitrogen Metabolism In Growing Swine, G. L. Asche, J. D. Crenshaw, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr. Jan 1986

Effect Of Dry, High-Moisture And Reconstituted Normal And High-Lysine Corn Diets And Particle Size On Energy And Nitrogen Metabolism In Growing Swine, G. L. Asche, J. D. Crenshaw, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr.

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Two metabolism studies were conducted with 24 (Exp. 1) and 36 (Exp. 2) crossbred barrows (initial weight 35 kg) to determine the effect of corn type - normal corn (NC) and high-lysine corn (HLC) - and storage method - dry (D), high-moisture (HM) and reconstituted (RC) - on energy and N digestibility. Diets fed in Exp. 1 were: 1, NC-soybean meal formulated at .78% lysine (dry matter basis); 2, HLC-soybean meal containing the same amount of corn as diet 1 (.87% lysine); 3, HLC-soybean meal with the same lysine level as diet 1. In Exp. 1, dry matter, energy and …


Additional Mapping Of Isozyme Loci: Localization Of Acp4, Dia2, Adkl, Tpi3, And Sadl, Jonathan F. Wendel, Major M. Goodman, Charles W. Stuber Jan 1986

Additional Mapping Of Isozyme Loci: Localization Of Acp4, Dia2, Adkl, Tpi3, And Sadl, Jonathan F. Wendel, Major M. Goodman, Charles W. Stuber

Jonathan F. Wendel

We recently listed the isozyme loci being studied by starch gel electrophoresis in our laboratory and summarized the available mapping data in a series of reports (Wendel et al., MGCNL 59:87-90). Subsequent work has resulted in further clarification of the chromosomal locations of markers on chromosomes 1 (Acp4, Dia2), 6 (Adkl), 8 (Tpi3), and 10 (Sadl). Previously unreported information on these loci and their chromosomal locations follows.


Tpi4 Is Located Near The Centromere On The Long Arm Of Chromosome 3, Jonathan F. Wendel, J. B. Beckett Jan 1986

Tpi4 Is Located Near The Centromere On The Long Arm Of Chromosome 3, Jonathan F. Wendel, J. B. Beckett

Jonathan F. Wendel

Tpi4, one of the three genes encoding cytosolic triose phosphate isomerase isozymes, was earlier shown to be on 3L between Pgd2 (phosphogluconate dehydrogenase) and the centromere (Wendel et al., MNL 59:88). In an effort to better localize Tpi4, a series of crosses was made between Tpi4 testers and stocks carrying three B-A translocations believed to be near the centromere on 3L.
