In Nebraska, the species of hummingbird most likely to be seen, and indeed the only one likely to be seen in the eastern half of the state, is the ruby-throated hummingbird. This is the most widely distributed of all North American hummingbirds, and its breeding range covers virtually all of eastern North America north nearly to Hudson Bay. The nesting range includes most of eastern Nebraska, but only along the Missouri River is nesting at all regular. Nests have been reported as far west as North Platte. Ruby-throats typically arrive in Nebraska in early April, with about half of the …

RESUMEN:
Histológicamente, las gónadas de Chthonerpeton indistinctum son similares a las ya descritas para otras especies del orden Gymnophiona. Los lóbulos testiculares se hallan compartimentados en unidades estructurales denominadas lóculos. La espermatogénesis ocurre en cistos sincrónicos de células germinales. Durante la espermiogénesis se identifican cuatro estados consecutivos de desarrollo: 1) cistos de espermátidas redondeadas; 2) cistos de espermátidas arrifionadas; 3) cistos de espermátidas bastoniformes y 4) espermátidas en ramillete.
El análisis histológico de los ovarios mostró la presencia de tres estados en la maduración de los folículos ováricos. Estas etapas pueden ser identificadas de acuerdo a: 1) ubicación del folículo …

Comparison Of Iterative Procedures For Solving Equations For Sire Evaluation, L. Dale Van Vleck, D. J. Dwyer
Comparison Of Iterative Procedures For Solving Equations For Sire Evaluation, L. Dale Van Vleck, D. J. Dwyer
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Gauss-Seidel, successive over-relaxation, end-of-round relaxation, and block iteration methods of obtaining solutions for sire effects from equations rising from progeny with records in mixed model procedures were compared. Equations transformed to provide direct solutions for genetic group plus sire effects as well as constrained and unconstrained equations were compared also. Equations for milk yield for the Northeast Artificial Insemination Sire Comparison numbered 301 for Ayrshires, 325 for Brown Swiss, 6,010 for Holsteins, and 926 for Jerseys after absorption of herd-year-season effects. Numbers of coefficients were 15 to 20% less for transformed equations, which decreased computing time per round of interation …
Extension Factors For Trimester Yields Of Milk And Fat, K. Agyemang, E. C. Clapp, L. Dale Van Vleck
Extension Factors For Trimester Yields Of Milk And Fat, K. Agyemang, E. C. Clapp, L. Dale Van Vleck
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Evidence of problems with sire proofs of extended incomplete records suggests the desirability of another method of evaluating dairy bulls for milk that minimizes the need for extending records by instead considering yields of three parts of a lactation (days 1 to 90, 91 to 180, and 181 to 270) as distinct and separate traits. Records of less than 90 days (or 180 or 270 days) require extension to 90-day (or 180- or 270-day) equivalents. Last sample day production of 17,826, 15,282, and 12,115 first-lactation records of Holstein cows was used to calculate extension factors to predict remaining yields to …
Trends In Genetic And Phenotypic Variances For Milk Production, S. L. Mirande, L. Dale Van Vleck
Trends In Genetic And Phenotypic Variances For Milk Production, S. L. Mirande, L. Dale Van Vleck
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Residual standard deviations estimated separately for each year of first freshening from first lactation milk records of artificially sired Holstein cows increased from 1960 to 1982, especially after 1976. The pattern on the square root scale was similar. On the logarithmic scale, residual standard deviations were smallest in the middle of the time period. Heritabilities estimated from paternal half-sib correlations were greater than .30 on all scales until about 1976 when estimates began to go below .20. Estimates were similar for untransformed and transformed records. When records were divided into four herd production groups within each year, the same patterns …
The Nutritional Value Of Normal And High Lysine Corns For Weanling And Growing-Finishing Swine When Fed At Four Lysine Levels, G. L. Asche, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr., J. D. Crenshaw
The Nutritional Value Of Normal And High Lysine Corns For Weanling And Growing-Finishing Swine When Fed At Four Lysine Levels, G. L. Asche, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr., J. D. Crenshaw
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
One-hundred-ninety-two weanling pigs from two separate trials, (initial weight 6.0 and 5.6 kg) and 400 growing-finishing pigs (initial weight 17 kg) were fed normal and high lysine corn diets containing four levels of lysine in a 2 • 4 factorial arrangement. Crossbred (Large White • Landrace x Duroc) pigs were used in all experiments. The objectives of the experiments were to (1) compare normal and high lysine corn when fed at different lysine levels, (2) determine the lysine requirements for the three stages of growth and (3) evaluate the effect of protein level on the lysine requirement. All diets were …
Weaining Weight Response Of Pigs To Simple And Complex Diets, L. V. Himmelberg, E. R. Peo, Jr., A. J. Lewis, J. D. Crenshaw
Weaining Weight Response Of Pigs To Simple And Complex Diets, L. V. Himmelberg, E. R. Peo, Jr., A. J. Lewis, J. D. Crenshaw
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Five experiments were conducted to determine (1) the value of simple vs complex diets on gains and feed conversion of pigs weaned at a constant age but varying in weight, (2) the optimum post-weaning time to change from a complex to a simple diet and (3) the effect of previous treatment on subsequent performance.
Metabolic Clearance And Production Rates Of Oestradiol And Progesterone During Pubertal And Postpubertal Development In Gilts, R. K. Christenson, J. J. Ford, D. A. Redmer
Metabolic Clearance And Production Rates Of Oestradiol And Progesterone During Pubertal And Postpubertal Development In Gilts, R. K. Christenson, J. J. Ford, D. A. Redmer
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
The crossbred gilts studied were aged 80 days (prepubertal), 180 days (prepubertal or postpubertal) and 260 days (postpubertal or pregnant). Estimates of metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of oestradiol and progesterone were consistently less (21 and 27%) in plasma than in blood, and these differences were not influenced by age of gilt. The MCR (1/day per kg body weight) for oestradiol and progesterone in plasma was greater (P < 0·05)for 80-day-old prepubertal gilts than for older gilts. The MCR values of oestradiol and progesterone were similar in 180-day-old and 260-day-old gilts independent of reproductive state. Production rate (PR) of oestradiol and progesterone increased with age (80-180days), and age and reproductive state differences were much more pronounced for PR of progesterone than of oestradiol. These results support the hypothesis that a reduction in the MCR and an increase in PR of oestradiol and progesterone in the gilt are associated with the process of pubertal development, and changes in gonadal steroid concentrations appear not to alter the MCR of oestradiol and progesterone.

Heritability Estimates And Adjustment Factors For Yearling Testicular Size In Different Breeds Of Beef Bulls, Donald D. Lunstra, Keith E. Gregory, Larry V. Cundiff
Heritability Estimates And Adjustment Factors For Yearling Testicular Size In Different Breeds Of Beef Bulls, Donald D. Lunstra, Keith E. Gregory, Larry V. Cundiff
Roman L. Hruska U.S. Meat Animal Research Center: Reports
Little information is available on breed differences and variation in testicular development of young beef bulls. Larger testis size in young bulls is favorably correlated with sperm output, age at puberty, mature testicular size, and pregnancy rate. If testicular size is to be considered in selection programs for young sires, the breed differences, heritabilities, and relationships of testicular measurements to age and body weight must be established for young beef bulls.
The objectives of this study were to measure and define breed differences and variations in testicular size of yearling beef bulls, determine the heritability of yearling testicular size, and …
Oxidative Metabolism Of Gravid Uterine Tissues Of The Cow, Calvin L. Ferrell, Lawrence P. Reynolds
Oxidative Metabolism Of Gravid Uterine Tissues Of The Cow, Calvin L. Ferrell, Lawrence P. Reynolds
Roman L. Hruska U.S. Meat Animal Research Center: Reports
Early reports suggested fetal growth is an energetically efficient process; however, more recent reports have suggested fetal growth to be a relatively inefficient process. These latter reports were based on indirect estimates obtained by the use of indirect calorimetry or comparative slaughter approaches, whereas the earlier data resulted from acute in vivo and in vitro approaches. Methodologies have been developed to directly measure rates of oxidative metabolism of tissues of the gravid uterus of cows using chronic preparations. The objective of this study was to quantify rates of oxidative metabolism of gravid uterine, fetal and utero-placental tissues of the pregnant …

Effect Of Dietary Fat On Pig Performance And Dust Levels In Modified-Open-Front And Environmentally Regulated Confinement Buildings, L. I. Chiba, E. R. Peo, Jr., A. J. Lewis, M. C. Brumm, R. D. Fritschen, J. D. Crenshaw
Effect Of Dietary Fat On Pig Performance And Dust Levels In Modified-Open-Front And Environmentally Regulated Confinement Buildings, L. I. Chiba, E. R. Peo, Jr., A. J. Lewis, M. C. Brumm, R. D. Fritschen, J. D. Crenshaw
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Four trials were conducted with 1,480 pigs (initial wt: 23 kg in trial 1, 29 kg in trial 2 and 49 kg in trial 3 and 4) to determine the effect of dietary fat on pig performance, nutrient separation in an automated feed distribution system, dust levels in swine buildings and integrity of the respiratory system of swine. Two modified-open-front (B-1 and B-2) and two environmentally regulated (E-1 and E-2) growing-finishing buildings, of identical design, were used in each trial. In trial 1,250 pigs (25 pens of 10 pigs/pen) in B-1 were fed a ground, mixed, corn-soybean meal diet (15% …

Effect On Receiving Diets Containing Alfalfa And Certain Feed Additives On Performance Of Feeder Pigs Transported Long Distances, M. C. Brumm, E. R. Peo, Jr.
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effect of receiving diets containing alfalfa meal and certain feed additives on performance of comingled feeder pigs transported 900 to 1,100 kin. In Exp. 1, the inclusion of 9.4% dehydrated alfalfa meal in receiving diets for 2 wk resulted in no difference (P>.I) in gain or feed conversion from purchase to market compared with pigs fed a basal corn-soybean meal (CS) diet or a diet containing 20% ground whole oats (O). In Exp. 2, pigs fed receiving diets containing 10% dehydrated alfalfa meal had no improvement (P>. 1) in gain (.60 …

Effect Of Source Of Dietary Energy And Energy Restriction During Lactation On Sow And Litter Performance, J. L. Nelsson, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr., B. D. Moser
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
The effects of source of energy and energy restriction during lactation on sow and litter performance were investigated in an experiment with 90 primiparous sows. At parturition, the sows were randomly assigned to diets containing either tallow or cornstarch as a major energy source.
An Evaluation Of Threonine And Isoleucine As The Third And Fourth Limiting Amino Acids In Corn For Growing Swine, D. A. Grosbach, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr.
An Evaluation Of Threonine And Isoleucine As The Third And Fourth Limiting Amino Acids In Corn For Growing Swine, D. A. Grosbach, A. J. Lewis, E. R. Peo, Jr.
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
A metabolism experiment and two growth experiments were conducted to determine if threonine and isoleucine are the third and fourth limiting amino acids in corn for growing swine. In each experiment there were four dietary treatments. The basal diet contained corn fortified with minerals, vitamins, lysine and tryptophan. Threonine additions of 0 or .17% and isoleucine additions of 0 or .22% of the diet were evaluated in a 2 • 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. The addition of threonine reduced (P<.001) the daily urinary excretion of urea N and total N. There was a tendency for urea N excretion to be reduced further when isoleucine was added in combination with threonine.
Prediction Of Heifer Transmitting Ability From Genetic Evaluations Of Sire, Dam, And Maternal Grandsire, R. A. Westell, L. Dale Van Vleck
Prediction Of Heifer Transmitting Ability From Genetic Evaluations Of Sire, Dam, And Maternal Grandsire, R. A. Westell, L. Dale Van Vleck
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Estimated transmitting abilities for milk of 258,201 Holstein heifers from first lactations were regressed on sire's milk proof, maternal grandsire's milk proof, and either dam's estimated transmitting ability from milk in first lactation or dams' estimated transmitting ability from milk of all lactations. Effects of year of birth of dam, dam's estimated transmitting ability for milk from first lactation, for milk from all lactations, estimated transmitting ability for fat from first lactation or for fat from all lactations were determined by sorting data into deciles by each of these criteria and calculating partial regression coefficients within each decile. For data …

Prediction Of Transmitting Ability Of Heifers From Genetic Evaluations Of Dams When Dams And Herdmates Are Required To Have A First Record, R. A. Westell, L. Dale Van Vleck
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
Estimated transmitting ability for milk production calculated from only first lactation records was regressed on milk proofs of the sire and maternal grandsire and either estimated transmitting ability of the dam calculated from only first lactations or estimated transmitting ability of the dam calculated from all lactations of a data set in which all cows were required to have milk records of first lactation. Records of 222,576 Holstein heifers in the northeastern United States were analyzed. Partial regression coefficients were similar to those from reports in which all records in the data file were used to estimate transmitting abilities. The …
Successive Overrelaxation, Block Iteration, And Method Of Conjugate Gradients For Solving Equations For Multiple Trait Evaluation Of Sires, L. Dale Van Vleck, D. J. Dwyer
Successive Overrelaxation, Block Iteration, And Method Of Conjugate Gradients For Solving Equations For Multiple Trait Evaluation Of Sires, L. Dale Van Vleck, D. J. Dwyer
Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications
A potential difficulty with mixed model equations for multiple trait evaluation of sires is solving the equations as the number of equations increases proportionally to the number of traits. Time required to obtain inverse solutions increases by the number cubed. Thus, iterative procedures often are used. Three iterative procedures, successive over-relaxation, block iteration with relaxation, and the method of conjugate gradients, were compared for four sets of multiple trait equations for sire evaluation. Equations were solved after absorption of equations for random herd-year-season effects. Equations for two and four traits each with test and complete data sets made up the …

Extruded Blend Of Soybean Meal And Sunflower Seeds For Dairy Cattle In Early Lactation, James K. Drackley
Extruded Blend Of Soybean Meal And Sunflower Seeds For Dairy Cattle In Early Lactation, James K. Drackley
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
An extruded blend of 44% crude protein soybean meal (50%), sunflower seeds (45%), and premix (5%) was evaluated as a protein and energy source for dairy cows in early lactation. Thirty Holstein cows (24 multiparos and 6 primiparous) were assigned to either a corn-oats-soybean meal concentrate (SBM) or a concentrate where soy-sunflower blend replaced all soybean meal and portions of corn and oats (SSF). Dry matter of total mixed diets was 36% corn silage, 21% alfalfa haylage, and 43% concentrate. Yields of milk (33.6 and 33.8 kg/day) and 4% fat-corrected milk (30.9 and 30.5 kg/day) were similar for cows fed …

Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The effectiveness of a rumen-protected methionine preparation was studied as an amino acid source for high-producing dairy cows during wk 4 through 16 postpartum. Twenty-four Holstein cows (14 primiparous and 10 multiparous) were fed concentrate containing heat-treated· soybean meal without or with 50 g/cow/day of added ruminally protected methionine product which provided 15 g of added DL-methionine daily. Cows were fed 16% crude protein mixed diets containing 30% of dry matter as corn silage, 15% as alfalfa hay, and 55% as concentrate. Milk production and composition were adjusted for pretreatment values (3 wk postpartum) by analysis of covariance. Adjusted milk …

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Correlation and linear regression analyses between mean annual pelt price and total harvest of 13 Arkansas furbearer species between 1965 and 1983 were performed for state and regions (Ozark Mountains, Ouachita Mountains, Gulf Coastal Plain, and Mississippi Delta). Statewide, strong correlations (r > 0.80) were identified for bobcat (Felis rufus), coyote (Canis latrans), gray fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus), mink (Mustela vison), nutria (Myocastor coypus), opossum (Didelphis virginiana), and raccoon (Procyonlotor). Moderate correlations (r = 0.55 - 0.79) were identified for eastern spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius), muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus), river otter (Lutra canadensis), and striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis). Nonsignificant correlations (r < 0.468) were shown for beaver (Castor canadensis) and long-tailed weasel (Mustela frenata). Regional differences were noted for each species.

Biology Faculty Publications
El orden Gymnophiona comprende anfibios ápodos, ciegos, de hábitos cavícolas y acuáticos. Como consecuencia de estos hábitos resulta muy difícil su colecta, lo cual redunda en un escaso conocimiento de la biología del orden y sobre las relaciones filogenéticas del mismo.
Una de las características más particulares del grupo se refiere a la modalidad reproductora, ya que aproximadamente el 50% de las especies presentan viviparidad y la totalidad de ellas tienen fecundación interna. Es por esta razón que el estudio del aparato reproductor ha sido encarado por diversos autores, en especial por Wake (1968, J. Morphol. 126: 291) con una …
