Variability In Copepod Hatching Success: Observations On Natural Populations And Experiments On The Role Of Maternal Diet, Carol A. Burkart

HCNSO Student Theses and Dissertations

The objectives of this study were (1) to survey the percent hatching success of eggs produced by calanoid copepod species from a variety of ecosystems (i.e., polar, temperate, and sub-tropical), (2) to describe the relationship between egg production, hatching success of Acartia tonsa and the physical and food environments of Florida Bay, and (3) to describe the relationships between hatching success and maternal diet. In order to fulfill the first objective, an incubation system was designed to allow the monitoring of eggs at sea for extended periods of time. The second objective was addressed with a series of egg production …

Effects Of Inbreeding And Heterozygosity On Preweaning Traits In A Closed Population Of Herefords Under Selection, L. Dale Van Vleck, M. D. Macneil

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Records of five inbred lines at the Livestock and Range Research Laboratory were used to evaluate effects of inbreeding and heterozygosity on preweaning traits. Members of each line were descendants of a single founder Hereford bull. A total of 8,065 records of birth weight and 7,380 records of preweaning daily gain and weaning weight were analyzed by derivative-free REML using a model that included fixed effects of sex, combination of year and month of birth and parity of dam, with covariates for direct and maternal genetic fractions of inheritance from the genetic groups, inbreeding, and heterozygosity fractions. Heterozygosity fractions were …

Effect Of Energy Source And Escape Protein On Receiving And Finishing Performance And Health Of Calves, R. A. Mccoy, Rick Stock, Terry J. Klopfenstein, D. H. Shain, M. J. Klemesrud

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Two receiving and two finishing trials evaluated energy source and escape protein supplementation for calves. In receiving Trial 1, 398 calves (257 ± 24 kg BW) were used in a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Energy sources were dryrolled corn (DRC) and wet corn gluten feed (WCGF); each was fed without or with supplemental escape protein (EP). Calves fed WCGF gained slower ( P < .05) and consumed less DM ( P < .01) than calves fed DRC. Feed efficiency improved ( P < .10) with EP supplementation. In finishing Trial 1, 240 calves (305 ± 21 kg BW) were used. The arrangement of treatments was the same as in receiving Trial 1. Calves fed DRC/WCGF tended ( P = .15) to be more efficient and consumed less DM ( P < .05) than calves fed DRC. In receiving Trial 2, 315 calves (252 ± 23 kg BW) were fed diets similar to those fed in receiving Trial 1. Calves fed WCGF consumed less DM ( P < .01), gained similarly ( P > .15), and were more efficient ( P < .10) than calves fed DRC. In finishing Trial 2, 320 calves (298 ± 23 kg BW) were fed diets containing DRC, DRC/WCGF, high-moisture corn (HMC), HMC/WCGF, and DRC/HMC; each was fed without or with supplemental EP. An energy source ´ protein supplement interaction was detected for gain ( P < .05) and efficiency ( P < .01). Results suggest that WCGF has a NE_g greater than DRC in receiving diets and a NE_g similar to that of DRC but lower than that of HMC in finishing diets.

Solvent-Extracted Germ Meal For Receiving Calves, Daniel Herold, Mark Klemesrud, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Todd Milton, Rick Stock

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

This study evaluated solvent-extracted germ meal as a dietary ingredient for receiving calves. Treatments were 7% of dry matter as either corn bran or solvent-extracted germ meal in 55% concentrate diets. Average daily gain, dry matter intake and feed to gain ratio were not influenced by treatment. Dry matter offered for the first 7 days calves were in the feedlot also did not differ due to treatment. Both dry matter consumption and calf performance indicated solvent-extracted germ meal can replace up to 7% corn bran in the diet without influencing either dry matter intake or performance.

Tenderness And Retail Stability Of Hydrodyne-Treated Beef, Bernadette O'Rourke, Chris R. Calkins, Rose Rosario, Morse Solomon, John Long

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Detonating a small explosive within a water-filled, stainless steel tank, creates a shock wave which penetrates vacuum-packaged meat. The acoustical match between water and meat caused an immediate and significant (P<.05) reduction in shear force. After an additional 10 days of aging, no tenderness differences (P>.05) were detected. Hydrodyne created no differences in pH, sarcomere length, purge, oxidative rancidity, bacterial counts (anaerobic or aerobic) or panel color ratings for either cut. Treated samples had higher Hunter L* values. The Hydrodyne process can tenderize unaged meat with no detriment to product display or shelf stability characteristics.

Body World And Time: Meaningfulness In Portability, Rumiko Handa

Architecture Program: Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity

Architectural scholars and professionals have long recognized the erosion of culturally endowed architectural meaning: technology transfer has caused the relationship between form and its means, so evidently reciprocal in indigenous construction, to crumble. Natives and tourists alike now deprecate traditional architecture while applauding the pseudoauthentic. If the irreversible universalization of technology and of man constitutes “a sort of subtle destruction, not only of traditional culture … but also of what I shall call for the time being the creative nucleus of great cultures, that nucleus on the basis of which we interpret life,” is architecture doomed to lose its rneaningfulness? …

Texas Recreational Trails Fund Application Guide, Texas Parks And Wildlife Department, Texas Parks And Wildlife Department Land Conservation Program

Documents from the State of Texas-Archive

The Symms National Recreational Trails Act, authorized by Congress and signed by the 61 President in 1991 as part of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act, created a 7.1% new federal trails assistance program. The recreational trails program receives its funding from a portion of federal gas taxes paid on fuel used in non-highway recreational vehicles. Funds can be spent to construct new recreational trails, improve/maintain existing trails, develop/improve trailheads or trailside facilities, and acquire trail corridor/easements. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is administering the funds in Texas under the approval of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Funding provided …

Geographical Variation In Male Courtship Behavior And Sexual Isolation In Wolf Spiders Of The Genus Schizocosa, Gary L. Miller, Gary L. Stratton, Patricia R. Miller, Eileen Hebets

Eileen Hebets Publications

We surveyed 12 populations of the wolf spider Schizocosa crassipes (Walckenaer) and S. nr. crassipes in Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Florida, in the United States, to determine the extent of variation in male courtship behavior when observed in standard laboratory conditions. We observed variation in both the frequency of occurrence and the sequence of the four principal male courtship behaviors and, when compared statistically, most of these behaviors differed between populations. Although there was no clinal pattern in the frequency of courtship behavior, we observed geographically consistent patterns in the sequence in which male courtship behaviors are displayed. We conducted …

G98-1350 Basics Of Feeding Horses: What To Feed And Why, Kathleen P. Anderson

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses the horse's digestive system and appropriate feeding procedures.

Because of the horse's eating habits and digestive system, feeding practices common to other species of livestock often result in severe digestive dysfunction or even death for the horse. In fact, several anatomical peculiarities of the horse's digestive tract predispose horses to digestive disorders such as colic and laminitis even under the best management. Under poor feeding management, the onset of these disorders is almost assured. The objective of feeding management is to provide a ration with balanced nutrition that both maximizes nutrient utilization while minimizing the occurrence of …

The Effects Of Catalyst, Free Fatty Acids, And Water On Transecterification Of Beef Tallow, Fangrui Ma, L. D. Clements, Milford Hanna

Industrial Agricultural Products Center: Publications and Information

Transesterification of beef tallow and methanol is affected by many factors. Catalyst, free fatty acids, and water in beef tallow, and reaction time were investigated. Sodium hydroxide (NUOH) was a more effective catalyst than sodium methoxide (NaMeOj. NaOH and NaMeO reached their maximum activities at 0.3% and 0.5%, w/w of beef tallow, respectively. The presence of water had more negative effect on transesterification than did the presence of free fatty acids (FFA). For best results, the water content of beef tallow should be kept not beyond 0.0696, w/w. FFA content of beef tallow should be kept below 0.596, w/w. The …
