Characterization Of Frost-Damaged Immature Soybeans For Alfalfa And Alfalfa-Brome Hay, Corn Silage Or Corn Based Diets, J.A. Loesche, R.H. Pritchard, Z.W. Wicks
Characterization Of Frost-Damaged Immature Soybeans For Alfalfa And Alfalfa-Brome Hay, Corn Silage Or Corn Based Diets, J.A. Loesche, R.H. Pritchard, Z.W. Wicks
South Dakota Beef Report, 1988
One compositional study and three single stage in vitro rumen fermentation experiments were conducted to characterize the feeding profile of frost-damaged immature soybeans (FDIS). Dauson and Dassel soybean plants were harvested at 86, 93, 100, 107 days post-planting and frozen at -5 C to contrast with natural frozen soybeans of the same varieties that were serially planted and harvested after the first killing frost. No differences between soybean variety were detected for crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE) or dry matter content (DM). Crude protein and EE content differed (P<.05) between maturities of artificially frozen (AF) soybeans. Only the EE content differed (P<.01) with maturity of naturally frozen (NF) soybeans. Planting date had an effect (P<.001) on composition of mature soybeans primarily due to increasing EE component. Exp. 1. Five levels of FDIS (0, 5,10, 15, 20%). three substrates (alfalfa hay, ALF), corn silage (CS), ground corn (WSC)) and two fermentation times (24 or 48 hours) were evaluated in single stage in vitro fermentations. FDIS supplementation had no effect on in vitro dry matter disappearance (IVDMD) of ALF or USC, indicating at the upper limit of FDIS supplementation had not been reached. IVDMD of corn silage was depressed (P<.01) when FDIS exceeded 10%. Increasing levels of FDIS increased NH –N (P<.01) but had no effect on VFA concentration in fermentation liquor. Exp. 2. Alfalfa-brome hay, ALF and CS were supplemented with FDlS for 48-hour IVDMD comparisons. IVDMD was not affected by substrate, but FDIS increased IVDMD of CS (P<.001). Exp.3. Four treatments, soybean meal (SBM), heated mature raw soybeans (HMB), heated FDIS (HFDIS) and FDIS, were used to differentiate oil content and trypsin inhibitor effects on roughage fermentation. Only SBM increased IVDMD (P<.05) of forages tested. FDIS included at 20% of the DM did not significantly decrease IVDMD of forages in most instances but may not stimulate digestion in the same manner as SBM.
Effect Of Different Growth Patterns On Feedlot Performance And Carcass Traits Of Moderately Large Framed Feeder Calves, R.H. Pritchard, D.H. Gee, M.A. Robbins
Effect Of Different Growth Patterns On Feedlot Performance And Carcass Traits Of Moderately Large Framed Feeder Calves, R.H. Pritchard, D.H. Gee, M.A. Robbins
South Dakota Beef Report, 1988
Dry matter intake of Charolais and Limousin sired crossbred steers was restricted to allow three distinctly different postweaning growth patterns. Growth patterns represented were LL--allow 2.8 lb ADG throughout the feeding period; LH -- same as LL until 80% of slaughter weight, then allow ad Libitum DMI; or HH--ad Libitum feed intake throughout. Ad Libitum fed steers consumed 23% more dry matter (P<.001) had higher ADG (3.81 vs 3.09 Lb/head/day; P<.01) than steers on restricted feed intake up t o 80% of slaughter weight. Feed efficiency was similar regardless of feeding rate in the early growth curve. Steers switched from restricted to ad Libitum feed intake exhibited compensatory gains (P<.01), while DM1 did not differ from steers previously fed ad Libitum. While feeding program affected cumulative feedlot ADG and DMI (P<.05) and days on feed, feed efficiency and total dry matter consumed were not affected. LL feeding resulted in lower marbling scores and a lower percentage choice grade in carcasses of similar weights. Growth pattern had no effect on carcass composition estimated from 9-10-11 rib section when adjusted to a common carcass weight.
Effect Of Previous Growing Program On The Benefits Of Restricting Feed Intake During The Finishing Phase, J.J. Wagner
Effect Of Previous Growing Program On The Benefits Of Restricting Feed Intake During The Finishing Phase, J.J. Wagner
South Dakota Beef Report, 1988
Eight pens of cattle that had been limit-fed a high energy growing diet and eight pens that had been full - fed a high roughage growing diet were fed either ad libitum amounts of a finishing diet or 93% of ad libitum for the first 70 days of the finishing phase. From day 71 through slaughter, all cattle received ad libitum amounts of the finishing diet. Interactions between previous growing program and level of feed intake during the finishing phase were significant (P<.05). Restricting the intake of finishing cattle that had been grown using a limit-fed, high energy diet resulted in improved (P<.05) feedlot performance (3.58 vs 3.28 lb per head daily average daily gain, respectively) and efficiency (6.18 vs 7.11, respectively) over the ad libitum fed cattle. For the cattle that had been grown using a high roughage program, restricting the intake of finishing cattle resulted in poorer (P<.07) performance (2.83 vs 3.16 lb per head daily, respectively) and efficiency (7.88 vs 7.19, respectively) compared with the ad libitum fed cattle. Whether or not cattle respond to restricted intake finishing regimens may be dependent upon level of dry matter intake, dietary energy density or rate of gain during previous growing program.
Effect Of Limit Feeding High Energy Growing In The Efficiency Of Metabolizable Energy Utilization, J.J. Wagner
Effect Of Limit Feeding High Energy Growing In The Efficiency Of Metabolizable Energy Utilization, J.J. Wagner
South Dakota Beef Report, 1988
One hundred twenty-eight Angus steer calves were utilized in a study to examine the effect of limit feeding on efficiency of metabolizable energy (ME) utilization during the grouping phase and subsequent performance during the finishing phase. Steers limit-fed a high concentrate diet exhibited more rapid d a i l y gains than steers full -fed the same amount of energy from a high roughage diet (2.15 vs 1.74 lb per head, respectively). Feed conversion was improved by limit feeding compared with full feeding (6.09 vs 10.19, respectively). The efficiency of ME utilization was also improved. Limit - fed steers gained …
High-Moisture Ear Corn And Corn Silage In Backgrounding Cattle Diets, M.L. Sip, R.H. Pritchard, M.A. Robbins
High-Moisture Ear Corn And Corn Silage In Backgrounding Cattle Diets, M.L. Sip, R.H. Pritchard, M.A. Robbins
South Dakota Beef Report, 1988
One hundred ninety-two Angus x Limousin steer calves (560 lb) were used in an 85-day backgrounding trial. Dietary crude protein levels of 90, 100, 110 and 120% of the NRC factorial equation recommendation were used within ad libitum-fed corn silage diets (CS) arid limit-fed chopped high-moisture ear corn (HMEC) diets. The objective was to determine if optimum dietary crude protein levels differed between these two basal diets when fed at similar levels of a net energy of gain. By design of the experiment, daily dry matter intake of HMEC diets was lower than CS diets (P<.001). ADG was similar across basal diets and feed conversion was improved (P<.001) with HMEC diets. Dietary crude protein level did not affect ADG. Quadratic decreases in the protein efficiency ratio occurred as dietary crude protein Level increased (P<.01). Plasma urea N (PUN) levels were higher in calves fed HMEC diets (P<.05) arid increased quadratically with increasing dietary crude protein level on day 56 (P<.05). This study suggests the NRC factorial equation estimates the gram daily crude protein requirement and can be used without modification to predict dietary crude protein needs of limit-fed feeder calves.

Growth, Survival, And Vulnerability To Predation Of Stocked Walleye (Stizostedion Vitreum) Fingerlings, James D. Wolters
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In laboratory tanks, largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) and northern pike (Esox Lucius consumed fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) 2.6 times more frequently than walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) and 5.7 times more than lepomids. Prey were more vulnerable in circular than rectangular tanks. In field studies, walleye fingerlings averaging 35 mm and 53 mm (mean total length) were stocked in two ponds (3- and 7- hectares) respectively: both contained largemouth bass, northern pike, yellow perch (Perca flavescenes), green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus), and fathead minnows. Aquatic insects dominated the diet of largemouth bass for 3 days after walleye were stocked, indicating that walleye fingerlings …

Iris Murdoch's "Learning Protagonists" : Toward Contingency, Responsibility And Reality, Patrice J. Coleman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
For over thirty years Iris Murdoch has continuously provided entertaining and thought-provoking novels. This prolific Irish-born English novelist has also sparked contention and controversy. She is accused of overtly manipulating her characters, placing them in extreme and implausible situations, sacrificing the realism which she admires and espouses. The world of literary criticism remains divided regarding their evaluation of Murdoch's intentions and achievements. While some steadfastly deny her a place among writers of the first rank, others proclaim her the greatest author writing in England today. Because she was born in Dublin and raised and educated in. London, both Ireland and …

The Development And Initial Public Relations Efforts Of The Tyrone Guthrie Theatre, Sandra K. Cudmore
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In New York City theatrical creativity and opportunities were being stifled by economic pressure. Over-crowding, over-cautious producers and over-priced productions were destroying theatre as it had been recognized for the past two decades. Sir Tyrone Guthrie and his staff began searching for an ideal city for a repertory theatre. They believed a repertory theatre could be an outlet or an expansion of New York theatre which would help the theatrical situation of the country. They found the location in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota. The year 1988 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre. It is an opportune time to …
Analysis Of The Herbicides Chlorsulfuron, Sulfometuron Methyl And Metsulfuron Methyl In Soil And Water, Fei-Wen Mao
Analysis Of The Herbicides Chlorsulfuron, Sulfometuron Methyl And Metsulfuron Methyl In Soil And Water, Fei-Wen Mao
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Chlorsulfuron, sulfometuron methyl and metsulfuron methyl are new herbicides. They are effective in controlling weeds in different areas. Generally, they are applied at very low levels. Their decomposition rates vary with soil moisture, pH, etc. Since they may be used year after year and their decomposition rates are not very rapid in this climate, the persistence can be a problem with herbicide carryover harming crops in the following years. Therefore, there is a need for a method to measure very low levels of these herbicides in soil and water to ensure that the quantities which might be present are not …
Growth Of Campylobacter Jejuni In Autoclaved And Irradiated Media, Todd Richard Mcaloon
Growth Of Campylobacter Jejuni In Autoclaved And Irradiated Media, Todd Richard Mcaloon
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Campylobacters are found in the reproductive organs, intestinal tract and oral cavity of man and animals. The organism was first isolated over 75 years ago and Campylobacter jejuni is now recognized as a pathogen of increasing importance, occasionally causing fatal acute and subacute gastrointestinal illness in humans. From 1973 to 1981, C. jejuni was isolated as frequently as Salmonellae and over three times as often as Shigellae from patients with diarrhea. The number of isolations of C. jejuni from feces of patients with diarrhea increases yearly and the number of cases reported are believed to be an underestimation of the …
Comparison Of Immunologic Responses Between Mice Differing At The Agouti Locus : Immunologic Abnormalities In Lethal Yellow (Ay) Mice Are Augmented By Obesity, Nancee L. Oien
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The agouti locus, located on chromosome 2 of the house mouse (mus musclus), functions in the complex regulation of pigment synthesis. The complexity of its regulatory role is revealed through the aberrations that become manifest when a mutation, specifically the lethal yellow (AY) mutation, occurs at the agouti locus. The lethal yellow mutation is associated with an alteration in pigment synthesis, onset of obesity at approximately 120 days, and an increased susceptibility to cancer. Based on the putative relationship between cancer and immunity, this mutation may be correlated with altered immune mechanisms. This correlation was investigated by comparing a delayed-type …
Zone And Drip Cooling Comparisons For Lactating Swine, Dan L. Raap
Zone And Drip Cooling Comparisons For Lactating Swine, Dan L. Raap
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A comparison of drip cooling, zone cooling, and conventional ventilation was performed on lactating swine. Overall, the cooling systems did not significantly improve swine performance. The drip and zone systems highly significantly lowered sow respiration rates by 40 and 28 percent, respectively, when compared to the respiration rates of sows from a conventionally ventilated room. Older sows consumed ten percent more feed than younger sows. Older sows returned to estrus after weaning approximately two days sooner than younger sows. Based on swine performance of this two-year study, neither drip cooling or zone cooling systems should be installed in areas with …

Comparison Of An Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay, An Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Test And A Direct Agglutination Test For Detecting Ovine Fetal Antibodies To Toxoplasma Gondii, Sheryl Lynn Seefeldt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Toxoplasma gondii is a coccidian parasite which produces a disseminated infection and reproductive failure in sheep. It is a major cause of abortion in sheep in New Zealand, Australia, and England. Within the last 5 years, T. gondii has been reported to cause ovine abortion in the United States. Individual flocks in New Zealand may lose 15-20 percent and sometimes as high as 50 percent of the lamb crop as a result of T. gondii induced abortion. The prevalence of T. gondii and the economic impact of the disease in U.S. sheep flocks is unknown. Several approaches have been employed …
Availability Of Elemental Selenium To Plants, Shu-Chen Tseng
Availability Of Elemental Selenium To Plants, Shu-Chen Tseng
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Selenium has been found to be both essential for and toxic to animals and humans. Plants make up the main source of selenium for animals which are the food source for humans. Therefore, the selenium content in soils and plants is of interest. The uptake and accumulation of selenium by plants is governed by many environmental factors such as plant species, soil pH, soil type, the chemical form of the selenium and the presence of other ions. The most important factors regulating selenium uptake by plants are the concentration and the form of selenium present in the soil. Many authors …

Aroyl Phosphates : Evidence For The High Reactivity Of Acyl Phosphates, Abdihakim O. Ahmed
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Organophosphorus compounds are one of the most important classes of chemical compounds found in plant and animal systems. Organophosphorus compounds are also important industrial chemicals used in building materials and in pesticides. Two typical organophosphorus pesticides are diazionan and malathion. In biological systems organophosphorus compounds are active constituents found in cell membranes and they are important mediators of energy transfer and storage processes. Energy liberated during biochemical processes is stored in the form of an organophosphate, adenosine triphosphate(ATP). The stored energy can be made available to the cell for its biochemical reactions that require energy input. During the course of …
Forage Nitrate Poisoning (A Summary), Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University
Forage Nitrate Poisoning (A Summary), Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University
SDSU Extension Fact Sheets
Occasionally forages accumulate nitrates in quantities that are toxic to some farm animals. As long ago as 1895, the literature reported cases of this. In the 1930's heavy cattle losses from what was then termed "oat hay poisoning" were reported in the Great Plains and Rocky Mountain areas. These losses were found to result from the high nitrate content of the hay. It has now been well established that several forage plants and weeds accumulate nitrates in toxic amounts under certain soil and environmental conditions.
