Barszczewski, Sara Janina Bodnar
Preservation of grasslands is vital for the continuation of the numerous ecosystem goods and services (EG&S) provided by these ecosystems, including forage for livestock, nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration and habitat for flora and fauna. All EG&S in grasslands are supported by microbial...

Skeletal muscle fat infiltration is reversed by dietary fish oil in an animal model of colorectal cancer receiving irinotecan and 5-fluorouracil
DownloadFall 2014
This study aimed to assess the effect of a Ward colorectal tumour, and irinotecan + 5-fluorouracil after 1- or 2-cycles in rats fed a diet with or without fish oil (FO), on the amount and types of fatty acids in rat skeletal muscle. Upon chemotherapy initiation, rats remained on control diet or...

Skeletal muscle in cancer: Exploration of the local immune environment and its associations to muscle mass in cancer
DownloadSpring 2020
Low muscle mass and muscle wasting are concerning issues as they are associated with poor outcomes and reduced survival in the oncological setting. Inflammation is a recognized contributor to disease-associated muscle loss; however, the biological characteristics of muscle tissue exhibiting...

Soil microbial communities and grain quality as affected by spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar and grain mixtures in organic and conventional management systems
DownloadFall 2011
It may be possible to tailor crop management to encourage diverse soil microbial communities and beneficial microorganisms, and produce high quality food products. Studies were carried out in 2005-2007 to evaluate the impact of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar choice and crop...

Soil Microbial, Physical, and Chemical Response to Cattle Grazing Management in the Northern Great Plains
DownloadFall 2023
Globally, 25% of the terrestrial surface is covered by grasslands, 40% of which is used for grazing livestock and is estimated to hold 30% of global soil carbon. Native grasslands in the Canadian prairie cover 12 million hectares and are used extensively for grazing cattle. Livestock grazing...
