Root Density In Panicum Maximum Cv. Tanzania Monoculture And In A Mixture With Leucaena Leucocephala With Different Densities In Mexico, H. J. Delgado Gómez, Luis Ramírez-Avilés, Juan C. Ku-Vera, J. Escamilla Bencomo, P. A. Velázquez Madrazo

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

In Yucatan cattle production is limited by forage availability during the dry season. L. leucocephala has good nutritive value (24 - 30% CP) and can stand drought and grazing, therefore its use in mixture with grasses is recommended. However, in association both species could compete for light, water and nutrients. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of introduction of L. leucocephala with different densities on root density of P. maximum.

Red Clover In Monoculture Or In Association With Grasses?, A. De Vliegher, L. Carlier

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

Sowing grass or clover under a cereal cover crop or after the harvest of the cereal is common practice, but there still are some questions about seed mixtures regarding monocultures or mixtures, especially when the fodder crop has to be productive for more than 2 years. In this experiment seed mixtures with clovers and grasses in a cereal cover situation were compared in terms of DM yield, energy and protein content and proportions of grass, clover and weeds.

Yield And Quality Of Annual Ryegrass Grown In Pure Stand And In Mixtures With Squarrosum Clover, M. E. V. L. Lourenço, P. M. M. Palma

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

The objective of this study was to evaluate the importance of growing annual ryegrass in mixtures instead of ryegrass alone in order to reduce nitrogen application and thereby lowering production costs, and environmental pollution.

Black Medick - A Beneficial Companion Crop For Use In Organic Grass Production, R. Macháč, B. Cagaš

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

Organic farmers must use only organically produced seed for establishing new meadows and for, renovation and undersowing of old pastures, in accordance with EC regulations. Therefore an important and difficult goal is to obtain enough seed of grasses without the use of pesticides and inorganic fertilisers. The seed yield is closely related to the number of fertile tillers, which depends on adequate nitrogen in the soil. Growing grasses for seed with a legume, as a companion crop, is one possibility for providing a source of organic nitrogen. Aamlid (1999) claimed that growing timothy together with white clover or alsike clover …

Seed Size And Its Relationship With Crop Establishment, Productivity And Nutritive Value In Genotypes Of Maize For Silage, C. Pérez, M. R. Tovar G., G. García, A. Carballo, G. Mendoza, T. Vásquez, F. González, M. Crosby

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

For a high dry matter (DM) yield of forage maize an adequate population of plants is required, which is related to germination, vigour, and seed size (Ellis, 1992). The objective of the present study was to investigate seed size and its relationship to establishment, productive and nutritional potential of silage maize, which has not before been reported in the literature.

Improvement Of Lucerne Cutting Management: The Relative Impact Of Initial Organic Reserves, Cutting Height And Residual Leaf Area On Forage Yield, J. C. Avice, F. Meuriot, M. L. Decau, A. Morvan-Bertrand, M. P. Prud'homme, F. Gastal, J-C. Simon, J. J. Volenec, A. Ourry

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

Less lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) is now grown because of difficulties arising from 2 interacting characteristics: productivity and stand persistence. Optimisation of these two parameters depends highly of the cutting management (cutting height and/or frequency) and of the taproot N reserves. For example, Avice et al. (1997) showed that lucerne shoot regrowth is relates closely to taproot soluble protein concentrations (especially vegetative storage protein: VSP). However, it is not known how stubble C-N reserves and/or residual leaf area (both depending of the cutting management) influence the contribution of taproot reserve-derived C-N supply to regrowing lucerne shoots after defoliation. …

Tapestry: Journal of Research in Education

The mental health of collegiate students, specifically minorities increased during the pandemic. The death for all minorities increased as well as financial burdens and mental health trauma. Black students were already faced with being a part of a general demographic with higher death rates, challenges with a variety of diseases, and financial concerns. The pandemic further exposed and increased those challenges which in turn created more mental health concerns. Collegiate institutions were faced with student enrollment concerns and students were determined to seek resources in a variety areas to support the added trauma. This article will explore the impacts of …

Comparison Of Oral Carotene Supplementation And Oral Polypodium Leucotomas In Preventing Photodamage, Jazmin Martinez

Yale School of Medicine Physician Associate Program Theses

Skin exposure to ultraviolet (UV) irradiance is the major cause of skin disorders, such as sunburn and nonmelanoma cancer. The current standard of care for photoprotection is the daily use of sunscreen, although patient adherence and adequate application continues to be an issue. Current data show systemic photoprotection can be added to sunscreen use to reduce the risk of cutaneous diseases. This randomized controlled study will investigate whether supplementation with Polypodium leucotomas versus carotenoid supplementation versus the standard of care, provide increased photoprotection in adults with Fitzpatrick skin types II-IV. Outcomes will be measured by comparing the minimal erythema dose …

Current Best Practice In Pelvic And Hip Fracture Management In The Older Adult Population, Anthony P. Joseph

Journal of Geriatric Emergency Medicine

Fractures of the pelvis and hip are a relatively frequent occurrence in the older population. Pelvic fractures in older patients usually occur after a fall from standing height. CT scan is the investigation of choice. There are several classifications available which are useful in risk stratification and predicting surgical treatment. Haemorrhage is a major complication and can usually be treated by interventional radiology. An Orthopedic opinion should be sought promptly, and surgical stabilisation (if indicated) should be completed as early as possible to enable early mobilisation and the avoidance of complications such as deep vein thrombosis or pneumonia.

Hip fractures …

Alternatives To Antibiotics In Veterinary Medicine: Considerations For The Management Of Johne's Disease, Laura M. O'Connell, Aidan Coffey, Jim O'Mahony

Dept. of Biological Sciences Preprints

Antibiotic resistance has become a major health concern globally, with current predictions expecting deaths related to resistant infections to surpass those of cancer by 2050. Major efforts are being undertaken to develop derivative and novel alternatives to current antibiotic therapies in human medicine. What appears to be lacking however, are similar efforts into researching the application of those alternatives, such as (bacterio)phage therapy, in veterinary contexts. Agriculture is still undoubtedly the most prominent consumer of antibiotics, with up to 70 % of annual antibiotic usage attributed to this sector, despite policies to reduce their use in food animals. This not …

Novel Potential Targets For Function-Promoting Therapies: Orphan Nuclear Receptors, Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Troponin Activators, Mas Receptor Agonists, And Urolithin A, Waly Dioh, Vihang Narkar, Anurag Singh, Fady Malik, Luigi Ferrucci, Cendrine Tourette, Jean Mariani, Rob Van Maanen, Roger A Fielding

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

In recent years, several new classes of therapies have been investigated with their potential for restoring or improving physical functioning in older adults. These have included Mas receptor agonists, regulators of mitophagy, skeletal muscle troponin activators, anti-inflammatory compounds, and targets of orphan nuclear receptors. The present article summarizes recent developments of the function-promoting effects of these exciting new compounds and shares relevant preclinical and clinical data related to their safety and efficacy. The development of novel compounds in this area is expanding and likely will need the advent of a new treatment paradigm for age-associated mobility loss and disability.

Targeting Energy Intake And Circadian Biology To Engage Mechanisms Of Aging In Older Adults With Obesity: Calorie Restriction And Time-Restricted Eating, Satchidananda Panda, Geraldine Maier, Dennis T Villareal

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

With the rise in obesity across age groups, it has been a hindrance to engaging in physical activity and mobility in older adults. Daily calorie restriction (CR) up to 25% has been the cornerstone of obesity management even though the safety in older adults remains incompletely understood. Although some adults can follow CR with clinically significant weight loss and improved health metrics, CR faces 2 obstacles-many fail to adopt CR and even among those who can adopt it short term, long-term compliance can be difficult. Furthermore, there is a continuing debate about the net benefits of CR-induced weight loss in …

Dietary Sources Of Linoleic Acid (La) Differ By Race/Ethnicity In Adults Participating In The National Health And Nutrition Examination Survey (Nhanes) Between 2017-2018, Shabnam R Momin, Mackenzie K Senn, Ani Manichaikul, Chaojie Yang, Rasika Mathias, Mimi Phan, Stephen S Rich, Susan Sergeant, Michael Seeds, Lindsay Reynolds, Floyd H Chilton, Alexis C Wood

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Linoleic acid (LA) is a primary n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), which is of interest to nutritional professionals as it has been associated with health outcomes. However, as some LA-rich foods offer protection against chronic diseases such as CVD (e.g., fatty fish), while others increase risk (e.g., red meat), the individual foods contributing to LA intake may be an important factor to consider. Therefore, this analysis sought to examine whether there are racial/ethnic differences in the proportion of overall LA intake accounted for by individual food groups, via a cross-sectional analysis of 3815 adults participating in the National Health …
