Pcr As A Diagnostic And Quantitative Technique In Veterinary Parasitology, Dante S. Zarlenga, James Higgins Jan 2001

Pcr As A Diagnostic And Quantitative Technique In Veterinary Parasitology, Dante S. Zarlenga, James Higgins

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Over the past 15 years, there has been a dramatic evolution in molecular approaches to study parasites and parasitic diseases. Many of these advancements have been brought about through the development of new applications of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Enhancements in sensitivity that can be achieved using PCR now permit scientists to investigate changes at the level of a single cell, far below what is often needed for parasite-derived applications. PCR has had a substantial impact on advances made in the areas of parasite systematics and epidemiology, immunology and host–parasite interactions, recombinant DNA vaccine development and most re- cently, …

Fallow Versus Wheat Cropping Of Unamendedand Manure-Amended Soils Related To Mycorrhizal Colonization, Yield, And Plant Nutrition Of Dry Bean And Sweet Corn, Brett L. Allen, Von D. Jolley, Charles W. Robbins, Larry L. Freeborn Jan 2001

Fallow Versus Wheat Cropping Of Unamendedand Manure-Amended Soils Related To Mycorrhizal Colonization, Yield, And Plant Nutrition Of Dry Bean And Sweet Corn, Brett L. Allen, Von D. Jolley, Charles W. Robbins, Larry L. Freeborn

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Previous studies reported manure application to eroded Portneuf silt loam soil (Coarse-silty, mixed, superactive, Durinodic Xeric Haplocalcid) improved dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L., cv. Viva) yield to levels of topsoil. These yield increases only correlated with whole-plant zinc (Zn) concentration and soil organic matter. This might be related to enhanced arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization stimulated by manure application. A greenhouse study with dry bean suggested a relationship between manure application, increased AM colonization, and whole-plant Zn uptake, while field studies with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and sweet corn (Zea mays L.) did not. To clarify the apparent …

Methyl-Β-Cyclodextrin: An Alternative Carrier For Intravenous Infusion Of Palmitate During Tracer Studies In Swine (Sus Scrofa Domestica), Diane Wray-Cahen, Thomas J. Caperna, Norman C. Steele

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Fatty acid-free albumin has been the standard carrier for intravenous infusion of fatty acids to study in vivo lipid metabolism. However, subjects can have adverse reactions to infusion of albumin. We sought an alternative to albumin as a carrier for intravenous infusion of fatty acids, using the pig as a model. Cyclodextrins are naturally occurring water-soluble molecules that can serve as carriers for lipid-soluble compounds. 13C-palmitate was complexed to either 20% methyl-β-cyclodextrin, 20% 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, or 5% porcine albumin (isotopic purity of infusates: 99.22±0.06%). 13C-palmitate-albumin was infused under fed conditions and 13C-palmitate-methyl-β-cyclodextrin was infused under fasted and fed …

Grain Color Stability And Classification Of Hard White Wheat In The U.S., C. J. Peterson, D. R. Shelton, T. J. Martin, R. G. Sears, E. Williams, R. A. Graybosch

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Variability in grain color of hard white wheat was investigated in cultivars grown over two years in Nebraska and Kansas and related to variation observed in grain hardness, kernel weight, kernel size, and protein content and to color of ground meal and flour. Grain color was scored subjectively, through visual evaluation, and objectively through use of a colorimeter. Of the 543 hard white wheat samples examined by USDA-GIPSA grain inspectors, 15.5% were scored as visually darker than the 1990 grain color standard established as a minimum for hard white wheat classification. The remaining samples were scored as having grain color …

Assessing Site Vulnerability To Phosphorus Loss In An Agricultural Watershed, Andrew N. Sharpley, Richard W. Mcdowell, Jennifer L. Weld, Peter J. A. Kleinman

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

A P index was developed as a tool to rank agricultural fields on the basis of P loss vulnerability, helping to target remedial P management options within watersheds. We evaluated two approaches, a soil P threshold and components of a P index, by comparing site vulnerability estimates derived from these two approaches with measured runoff P losses in an agricultural watershed in Pennsylvania. Rainfall–surface runoff simulations (70 mm h-1 for 30 min) were conducted on 57 sites representing the full range of soil P concentrations and management conditions found in the watershed. Each site was comprised of two, abutting …

Food Webs, Risks Of Alien Enemies And Reform Of Biological Control, D. R. Strong, R.W. Pemberton Jan 2001

Food Webs, Risks Of Alien Enemies And Reform Of Biological Control, D. R. Strong, R.W. Pemberton

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

As ilwasions of alien species mount, biological control will become an increasingly important tool of conservation and agriculture. In an effort to understand indirect interactions in biological control, we review food web ecology in terms of resource competition, trophic cascades, intraguild predation, apparent competition, omnivory and a diverse set of tritrophic interactions. The most inclusive study suggests that food webs in biological control are simpler than in natural communities. Risks to non-target species created by biological control have been studied seriously for only about 20 years, and knowledge of these risks is incomplete. The greatest risks are known to be …
