Species And Subspecies Of The Genus Aphanius Nardo 1897 (Pisces: Cyprinodontidae) In Turkey, Rudolf H. Wi̇ldekamp, Fahretti̇n Küçük, Mustafa Ünlüsayin, Wi̇m Van Neer

Turkish Journal of Zoology

The Turkish species of the Cyprinodontiform genus Aphanius Nardo 1827 are described. The naming used follows Wildekamp (1993) (1) as the latest available revision. Information is given on morphology, sexual dimorphism, colouration and distribution, as well as remarks on taxonomy, nomenclature, distribution, variability and conservation. Comments are given on the Lazara (1995) (2) revalidation of Lebias as a distinct genus. It is shown that Valenciennes (1846) (3) is the first revisor of Lebias, and not Lazara, and that Aphanius should be maintained as a genus. The taxon Aphanius chantrei (Galliard 1895) is regarded as a junior synonym of Aphanius danfordii …

The Arctic And Antarctic: An Integrated Curriculum Unit, Grades K-2, Institute For The Development Of Gifted Education, Ricks Center For Gifted Children, University Of Denver

Ricks Curriculum Units Series

An integrated curriculum is an instructional approach that connects the disciplines to an underlying theme or topic. Immersing students in an integrated-thematic unit provides the backdrop for experiences to occur across the disciplines. Shaping coursework around integrated themes is especially appropriate for gifted students, however using an integrated-thematic curriculum is appropriate for all learners as it develops students' abilities to make connections, to solve problems by looking at multiple perspectives, and to integrate information from different fields of experience. An integrated-thematic curriculum permits students to be active participants in their own learning as they design their own explorations and take …

Bringing The Standards Into The Classroom: A Case Study Of One School District's Implementation Process, Georgia Sarroub, Aleidine Kramer Moeller

Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications

In 1993 federal funding was provided for the development of national foreign language standards for students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. The resulting content standards (Standards for Foreign Language Learning: Preparingfor the 21st Century) define what students should know and be able to do in grades four, eight, and twelve and were intended to "serve as a gauge for excellence" (National Standards in Foreign Language Learning Project 1996, 13). Like the mathematics goals, the foreign language goals were viewed as criteria for excellence rather than as a minimum level of competency (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics 1989, 2).

Mimosa 1999, Jacksonville State University

JSU Yearbooks

The JSU Yearbook Collection spans the years from 1926 to the present. The publication began in 1926 as the Teacola (some volumes spelled "Teacoala") and continued under this title through 1933. The yearbook appears to have ceased printing after that year; the student newspaper took the name Teacola (later changed to the Collegian and finally the Chanticleer) and began publication in 1934. The yearbook started up again in 1947 under the name Mimosa. The Library holds all volume years that were printed: 1926-1933, 1947-1950, 1952-present.

Optimal Conditions Of Cooler Aging For Beef, Chris R. Calkins, Rosemarie Rosario

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Steaks from longissimus muscle were stored at 30°F and 38°F for one, two, three, eight and 15 days postmortem to identify time/temperature combinations providing optimum tenderization. After completion of each treatment, steaks were sampled for myfibrillar protein degradation using gel electrophoresis and Warner-Bratzler shear force. Steaks aged at 38°F tended to have lower shear force values (greater tenderness) and shorter storage times than those stored at 30°F. Gel electrophoresis confirmed these results: samples stored at 38° F had considerable protein degradation in eight days, comparable to steaks aged at 30°F for 15 days.

Use Of Neutral Detergent Insoluble Protein In Omasal Samples To Estimate Escape Protein, Abdullah Can, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Ryan Mass

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Three experiments were conducted with ruminally cannulated steers to evaluate neutral detergent insoluble protein (NDIP) content of omasal samples as an escape protein estimation technique. In experiment 1, brome hay escape protein (EP) values were determined with the NDIP technique and the omasal sampling purine technique (OSPT) with no difference in EP values. In experiment 2, smooth bromegrass EP values were estimated in June and August, 1996. In situ and OSPT estimated similar EP values, but EP estimates from NDIP were lower. Experiment 3 was conducted from May through July, 1997. OSPT estimated the highest EP values. In experiments 2 …

Climate Affects Calf Birth Weights And Calving Difficulty, Gene H. Deutscher, Dave Colburn, Rex Davis

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

A six-year study was conducted to investigate effects of winter temperatures on two-year-old cows (n=285) and their subsequent calf birth weights and calving difficulty in the spring. The winter of 1992-93 (coldest) was 11° F colder than the winter of 1994-95 (warmest). The coldest winter was followed by calf birth weights that were 11 pounds heavier with 29 percent greater calving difficulty compared to the warmest winter. Our results indicated that as average winter temperatures decreased 1° F, subsequent calf birth weights increased 1 pound and calving difficulties increased 2.6 percentage points. When blankets were placed on cows before calving, …

Effects Of Matching Protein To Requirements On Performance And Waste Management In The Feedlot, Galen E. Erickson, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Todd Milton, Dan Herold

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Four experiments were conducted, two with calves in the winter/spring and two with yearlings during the summer, to evaluate the effects of decreasing protein levels on nutrient balance in the feedlot. The control diet was formulated for 13.5 percent protein; the experimental diets were formulated using the 1996 NRC model to predict protein requirements. Nutrient balances for organic matter (OM) and nitrogen (N) were measured. Nitrogen intake and subsequent excretion were decreased with steers fed the experimental treatment. During the summer more N was removed from pens on the experimental treatment since OM excretion was greater which led to decreased …

Effects Of Rumensin Level And Bunk Management Strategy On Finishing Steers, Ki Fanning, Todd Milton, Terry J. Klopfenstein, D. J. Jordon, Rob Cooper, Cal Parrott

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Eight ruminally fistulated, yearling steers (two concurrent 4x4 Latin squares) were used to evaluate dietary Rumensin level (0, 30, 30/40 or 40 g/t), and bunk management strategy (ad libitum or clean bunk: 24- or 14-hour feed access). Rumensin decreased meal size and increased meal frequency without compromising intake. Clean bunk management increased consumption rate, meal size and ruminal pH change and pH variance. Steers with limited feed exposure are at greater risk for subacute acidosis; Rumensin effects consumption favorably for controlling acidosis, especially for cattle with limited feed exposure.

The Relationship Of Beef Primal Cut Composition To Overall Carcass Composition, Dana Hanson, Chris R. Calkins, Bucky Gwartney, John Forrest, Ron Lemenager

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

The amount of lean, subcutaneous fat, seam fat and bone of each of the four major primal cuts (round, rib, loin and chuck) were used in combination with yield grade to predict total side composition. The makeup of each primal is highly related to total carcass composition The decision of which primal to fabricate depends on the sex of the animal and which component (lean, subcutaneous fat, seam fat or bone) is of greatest interest.

Corn Bran, Solvent-Extracted Germ Meal, And Steep Liquor Blends For Finishing Yearlings, Daniel Herold, Rob Cooper, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Todd Milton, Rick Stock

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Finishing performance of yearling steers was used to assess eight treatments containing corn wet milling byproducts. Interactions were encountered for dry matter intake, average daily gain and feed efficiency as level of dietary steep liquor/distillers solubles increased and corn bran and(or) corn bran with solvent- extracted germ meal decreased. Average daily gain and feed efficiency increased as steep liquor/distillers solubles replaced corn bran or a combination of corn bran and solvent-extracted germ meal. Steep liquor with distillers solubles had higher feeding value than corn bran or solvent-extracted germ meal and solvent-extracted germ meal had 19.9 percent higher energy than corn …

Hormonal Influence On Fat Synthesis In Cattle, Sheila Jacobi, Jess L. Miner

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

The ability of adenosine, insulin and human acylation-stimulating protein to modify fat synthesis was determined using cultures of fat tissue from steers. Adenosine did not influence fat synthesis. However, acylation stimulating protein and insulin promoted fat synthesis. These observations, coupled with knowledge of how fat synthesis is regulated in other species, justify investigation of whether cattle synthesize acylation-stimulating protein, and how this synthesis is regulated. An understanding of how acylation-stimulating protein production and action is regulated should expose potential places for intervention to manipulate fat synthesis in cattle.

Evaluation Of Growth-Promoting Systems For Heifer Calves Finished In The Feedlot, Mari Lubberstedt, Terry L. Mader, Jill Heemstra, Kelly Letchenberg

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Two-hundred ten head of predominantly British and/or British x Continental cross heifers were assigned to six implant/reimplant treatment groups (five pens/treatment). In addition, melengestrol acetate (MGA) was provided to four treatment groups from day 28 until 48 hours prior to slaughter. Heifers not fed MGA had the greatest number of immature ovaries, although they were also the most efficient in feed conversion (lower feed to gain ratio). Heifers fed MGA and implanted with Finaplix were the least efficient in feed conversion
