Effects of breed type and slaughter weight on feedlot performance and carcass composition in bulls
Download1978
Jones, S. D. M., Price, M. A., Berg, R. T.
A trial is reported comparing the growth and carcass characteristics ofbulls of three breed-types: Hereford crossbred (HC), beef synthetic (SY) and dairy crossbred (DC).

Effects of dietary enrichment with a marine oil-based n-3 LCPUFA supplement in sows with predicted birth weight phenotypes on birth litter quality and growth performance to weaning
Download2015
Patterson, Jennifer L., Foxcroft, George R., Dixon, Walter T., Spencer, Joel D., Smit, M. N., Dyck, Michael K.
The effects of a marine oil-based n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (mLCPUFA) supplement fed to the sow from weaning, through the rebreeding period, during gestation and until end of lactation on litter characteristics from birth until weaning were studied in sows with known litter birth...

Dyck, Michael K., Foxcroft, George R., Patterson, Jennifer L., Dixon, Walter T., Smit, M. N., Spencer, Joel D.
Effects of a marine oil-based n-3 LCPUFA supplement (mLCPUFA) fed from weaning until the end of the next lactation to sows with a predicted low litter birth weight (LBW) phenotype on growth performance and carcass quality of litters born to these sows were studied, based on the hypothesis that...

FEM Simulation of Non-Progressive Growth from Asymmetric Loading and Vicious Cycle Theory: Scoliosis Study Proof of Concept
Download2010
Fok, Jonathan W., Carey, Jason P., Adeeb, Samer
Scoliosis affects about 1-3% of the adolescent population, with 80% of cases being idiopathic. There is currently a lack of understanding regarding the biomechanics of scoliosis, current treatment methods can be further improved with a greater understanding of scoliosis growth patterns. The...

Manipulation of host food availability and use of multiple exposures to assess the crowding effect on Hymenolepis diminuta in Tribolium confusum
Download2008
Walsh, J.G., Wong, Y.C., Shostak, A.W.
We studied the ‘crowding effect’ in Tribolium confusum infected with Hymenolepis diminuta. Manipulations included age and number of parasites, and diet, sex, age and number of exposures of hosts. Volume per parasite was unaffected until an intensity of at least 5–10 parasites per host, then...

Optimizing exponential growth of Triticum aestivum by application of the relative addition rate (RAR) technique utilizing a computer-controlled nutrient delivery system
Download2004
Matumoto-Pintro, Paula T., Pintro, José C., Taylor, Gregory J.
We conducted experiments designed to assess whether plants can be grown under conditions of low ionic strength simulating natural soil conditions. Wheat (Triticum aestivum, cv. Atlas 66) plants were grown using ten different relative nutrient addition rates (RAR) of nutrients (0.00, 0.06, 0.09,...

Ovarian and endocrine responses associated with the treatment of cystic ovarian follicles in dairy cows with gonadotropin releasing hormone and prostaglandin F2alpha, with or without exogenous progesterone
Download2004
Schmitt, Eric J. -P., Mattos, Ricardo C., Ambrose, Divakar J., Thatcher, William W., Lopes, Flavia L.
The objectives of this observational study were to document ovarian and endocrine responses associated with the treatment of cystic ovarian follicles (COFs) in dairy cows, using gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) and prostaglandin F2α(PGF) with or without exogenous progesterone. A secondary...

Regulation of cold shock-induced RNA helicase gene expression in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sptrain PCC 7120
Download2000
Owttrim, George W., Chamot, Danuta
Expression of the Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 RNA helicase gene crhC is induced by cold shock.crhC transcripts are not detectable at 30°C but accumulate at 20°C, and levels remain elevated for the duration of the cold stress. Light-derived metabolic capability, and not light per se, is required...

Responses to n-3 fatty acid (LCPUFA) supplementation of gestating gilts, and lactating and weaned sows
Download2012
Smit, M. N., Patterson, Jennifer L., Spencer, Joel D., Dixon, Walter T., Dyck, Michael K., Foxcroft, George R., Cameron, Ashley C., Webel, Stephen K.
Feeding n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) to gilts or sows has shown different responses to litter growth, pre-weaning mortality and subsequent reproductive performance of the sow. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) that feeding a marine oil-based supplement rich in protected n-3...
