Pliable Plants, Sharon Clay

Agronomy, Horticulture and Plant Science Faculty Publications

The addition of genes for C4 photosynthesis into non-C4 plants, for example, gives us crops that are much more efficient at using water and nitrogen (see “Supercharged Photosynthesis”). But such advances are only worthwhile if they lead us to crops that yield well in the variable and unpredictable environments that we now face.

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

A finishing phase study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of replacing dry rolled corn with a high inclusion liquid feed for finishing steers. Treatments were based upon 3 supplements: 1) Control 3.3% inclusion meal-type supplement (CO); 2) Typical Liquid Supplement 4.5% inclusion liquid supplement (TLS); and 3) High Liquid Supplement 9.0% inclusion liquid supplement (HLS). Supplements displaced dry rolled corn in finishing diets. Five 5 pens of 7 or 8 yearling steers with an initial BW of 930 lb assigned to each treatment for the 119 d experiment. The assayed supplement inclusion averaged 3.35%, 4.48% and 8.97% for the …

Postruminal Flow Of Glutamate Linearly Increases Small Intestinal Starch Digestion In Cattle, E.J. Blom, D.W. Brake, D.E. Anderson

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

Improving performance and efficiency among cattle fed corn-based diets could have large benefit to cattle production in the United States. Starch escaping ruminal fermentation is not efficiently digested in the small intestine; however, postruminal flows of casein (i.e., milk protein) or glutamate (an amino acid or building block of protein) increase small intestinal starch digestion in cattle. The objective of this study was to determine responses of small intestinal starch digestion in cattle to increasing amounts of postruminal glutamate. Increasing amounts of duodenal glutamate linearly increased small intestinal and postruminal starch digestion. These data indicate that postruminal glutamate can provide …

Effect Of Processing Conditions On Nutrient Disappearance Of Cold-Pressed And Hexane-Extracted Camelina And Carinata Meals In Vitro, A. Sackey, E.E. Grings, D.W. Brake, K. Muthukumarappan

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

Camelina and carinata are oilseed crops that have recently gained increasing attention as biofuel sources. The meals remaining after oil extraction contain relatively high concentration of protein and, because of this, there is interest in using them in livestock diets. However, the nutritional qualities of these meals are not well defined and may vary with processing conditions. In our experiment, we evaluated meals from cold-pressed and solvent-extracted camelina and carinata meals manufactured using 6 different processing conditions. Estimates of total in vitro OM and CP disappearance of each meal were determined according to a modified 2-phase procedure of Tilley and …

Comparison Of Camelina Meal And Distiller’S Dried Grains With Solubles In Diet Of Beef Replacement Heifers, E.E. Grings, A. Sackey, D.W. Brake, G.A. Perry

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

Biofuel production from different crops yields by-product meals that are available for use as protein sources for ruminant livestock. Variation in nutrient composition among meals may result in different inclusion rates to meet nutrient needs of livestock. In this study we compared distiller’s dried grains with solubles (DDGS), a by-product of ethanol production, and camelina meal, a by-product of biodiesel production, as a protein source in hay-based diets for beef heifers before breeding. Diets were formulated to be similar in energy and protein content by altering the amount of protein source and corn in the diet. Heifers fed the two …

Post-Weaning Nutritional Programming Of Ovarian Developmentin Beef Heifers, O.L. Amundson, T.G. Fountain, E.L. Larimore, B.N. Richardson, A.K. Mcneel, E.C. Wright, D.H. Keisler, R.A. Cushman, G.A. Perry, H.C. Freetly

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

The nutritional management of replacement females from weaning to breeding is critical to lifetime productivity. Traditionally, cereal grains have been used to develop replacement heifers to attain puberty and enter the breeding system at a younger age. However, overfeeding heifers decreases number of calves weaned, while peri-pubertal caloric restriction increased primordial follicle numbers in the developing ovary. The number of primordial follicles a female has can determine her overall fertility; females with a greater amount of follicles have greater reproductive lifespans. In this study, two groups of heifers were developed to prebreeding status. One group received a control diet (228 …

Financial Anxiety, Physiological Arousal, And Planning Intention, John Grable, Wookjae Heo, Abed Rabbani

Consumer Sciences Faculty Publications

Results from this exploratory clinical study indicate that financial anxiety—holding an unhealthy attitude about one’s financial situation—and physiological arousal—the physical precursor to behavior—play important roles in shaping consumer intention to engage in future financial planning activity. Findings suggest that those who are most likely to engage the services of a financial adviser exhibit low levels of financial anxiety and moderate to high levels of physiological arousal. The least likely to seek the help of a financial adviser are those who exhibit high financial anxiety and low physiological arousal. Results support findings documented in the literature that high anxiety levels often …

Importance Of Estrus Expression Before Fixed-Time Aion Conception Rates In Beef Cattle, B.N. Richardson, S.L. Hill, J.S. Stevenson, G.D. Dijira, G.A. Perry

South Dakota Beef Report, 2015

Expression of estrus prior to fixed-time AI has been reported to strongly impact overall pregnancy success. Behavioral estrus is a visual indicator that a cow or heifer’s internal environment is prepared for breeding. Insemination of a cow or heifer after estrus has been expressed will yield greater pregnancy success due to adequate uterine environment, increased fertilization rates, increased accessory sperm numbers, and increased overall embryo survival. It can be difficult to analyze the effects of estrus on pregnancy success across studies due to differences in number of animals and proportion of animals exhibiting estrus per study. In order to accurately …
