Soil, Plant And Cattle Nutrient Dynamics On Pastures Of The Western Amazon Of Brazil, B. Rueda, R. W. Blake, E. Fernandes, Charles F. Nicholson, J. F. Valentim Nov 2002

Soil, Plant And Cattle Nutrient Dynamics On Pastures Of The Western Amazon Of Brazil, B. Rueda, R. W. Blake, E. Fernandes, Charles F. Nicholson, J. F. Valentim

Agribusiness

Cattle production on Brachiaria pastures is a primary use of cleared forestland in the western Brazilian Amazon. About 6.8 million hectares in the States of Acre and Rondônia have been deforested, where 75% of land is now grazed (IBGE, 1998). The principal pasture species are B. brizantha and B. decumbens with the latter in decline from spittlebug susceptibility (Deois incompleta; Gonçalves et al., 1996). The general pattern of pasture establishment in the Amazon basin includes felling and burning forest biomass, planting annual crops for one to three years (especially on small farms), and then seeding to grasses. The …


Livestock Land Use Change, And Environmental Outcomes, Robert W. Blake, Charles F. Nicholson Nov 2002

Livestock Land Use Change, And Environmental Outcomes, Robert W. Blake, Charles F. Nicholson

Agribusiness

Rapid predicted worldwide growth in demand for animal products to 2020—the so-called “next food revolution” in animal agriculture—portends complex interactions among people, biological and geophysical resources, and economic objectives. A restructuring of global food demands is expected: in contrast to current patterns, most (>60%) global production of meat and milk will be consumed by households in the developing countries (Delgado et al., 1999). The key drivers of this change are income growth, population growth, urbanization, and increased opportunities for trade. We identified some of the environmental risks, and recuperative effects, of animal agriculture in a recent article (Nicholson et …

Biological Sciences

This review summarizes a collection of lactic acid bacteria that are now undergoing genomic sequencing and analysis. Summaries are presented on twenty different species, with each overview discussing the organisms fundamental and practical significance, environmental habitat, and its role in fermentation, bioprocessing, or probiotics. For those projects where genome sequence data were available by March 2002, summaries include a listing of key statistics and interesting genomic features. These efforts will revolutionize our molecular view of Gram-positive bacteria, as up to 15 genomes from the low GC content lactic acid bacteria are expected to be available in the public domain by …

Cooperative Breeding Effects Among The Matrilineal Khasi Of N. E. India, Donna L. Leonetti, Dilip C. Nath, Natabar S. Hemam, Dawn B. Neill Jun 2002

Cooperative Breeding Effects Among The Matrilineal Khasi Of N. E. India, Donna L. Leonetti, Dilip C. Nath, Natabar S. Hemam, Dawn B. Neill

Social Sciences

As a hallmark of our species, mothers of small children generally require and receive help from others in their reproductive efforts of parenting, in what can be called cooperative breeding. This help appears to affect the frequency of births and the success of reproductive efforts as measured by the health and survival of children. The nature of such effects in family systems organized around women and in which women control resources holds interest with respect to the evolution of the human species. The matrilineal Khasi tribe of N. E. India are swidden agriculturalists characterized by low socioeconomic resources and high …

Dietary Patterns And Prostate Cancer Risk In The Nhefs Cohort, Marilyn Tseng Jun 2002

Dietary Patterns And Prostate Cancer Risk In The Nhefs Cohort, Marilyn Tseng

Kinesiology and Public Health

We examined the association between dietary patterns and prostate cancer risk using data from the first National Health and Nutrition Examination Epidemiologic Follow-up Study. The study population included 3,779 men followed 1982-4 to 1992, with 136 prostate cancer cases identified during the follow-up. Principal components analysis on responses to a lOS-item diet questionnaire in 1982-84 was used to identify dietary patterns, and scores representing level of intake of each pattern were categorized into tertiles. Three distinct patterns were identified: a vegetable-fruit pattern, a red meat-starch pattern characterized by intake of beef, pork, potatoes, and sweets, and a southern pattern characterized …


Combining Behavioral And Pharmacological Treatments For Obesity, Suzanne Phelan, Thomas A. Wadden Jun 2002

Combining Behavioral And Pharmacological Treatments For Obesity, Suzanne Phelan, Thomas A. Wadden

Kinesiology and Public Health

Weight-loss medications are currently recommended for use only as an adjunct to diet, exercise, and behavior modification. Little, however, is known about the benefits of combining behavioral and pharmacological therapies or about the mechanisms that would make these combined approaches more effective than either used alone. This article reviews the effects of adding pharmacotherapy (i.e., principally sibutramine and orlistat) to a modest program of lifestyle modification. Studies revealed that the addition of medication typically improved short- and long-term weight loss compared with lifestyle modification alone. The best results, however, were obtained when medications were combined with an intensive, group program …
