The effects of defoliation on growth, reproduction and pollination of a non-native legume (Astragalus cicer) in the mixedgrass prairie
DownloadSpring 2017
Herbivory can lead to trade-offs between plant growth and reproduction as defoliated plants lose initial resource investments and have reduced photosynthetic capacity. This trade-off can lead to reduced investment into reproductive structures and have repercussions for floral traits, pollinator...

Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common cause of congenital infection in newborns. One mechanism for this virus to reach the fetus is to cross the placenta through the syncytiotrophoblast layer. Accumulation and protection of pathogens in the syncytiotrophoblast could affect the systemic...

Understanding the role of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on postpartum reproductive function and embryo development in dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2016
The objectives of this work were to investigate the influence of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on feed intake, calf birth weight, maternal and neonatal fatty acid profiles, milk production, postpartum reproductive function, early embryonic development and its transcriptome profile in...

USING IN-LINE MILK PROGESTERONE DATA TO DETERMINE OVARIAN ACTIVITY PARAMETERS ASSOCIATED WITH REDUCED FERTILITY IN CANADIAN HOLSTEIN COWS
DownloadFall 2017
Improvements in genetic selection and dairy management practices have resulted in dramatic increases in individual milk production over past decades. However, this positive trend has been accompanied by decreased reproductive performance and fertility in dairy cows. Infertility in modern dairy...
