The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Composition of soybean seeds is important to manufacturers of tofu and natto food products. The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars was measured in Missouri in 2004 and 2005. The environment was altered...
Impact of grazing stockpiled tall fescue of lactating beef cows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Two experiments are described, in which fall-calving cow-calf pairs grazed stockpiled tall fescue at three different endophyte infection levels (20, 51, and 89%) and four forage allowances (2.25, 3.00, 3.75, and 4.50% of BW). A hay feeding treatment...
The role of genetic and phenotypic diversity in maize and its effects on aflatoxin accumulation by the fungus Aspergillus flavus
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Accumulation of the potent carcinogen, aflatoxin, in maize poses a significant health risk to humans and animals. Most commercially grown maize lines are susceptible to infection by the fungus that synthesizes aflatoxin, ...
Soybean seed components as affected by nodal position, environmental conditions, and irrigation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) are a major source of vegetable protein and edible oil. The nutritional quality of these seed components depends upon the relative abundance of specific proteins and fatty acids. Additionally, ...
Genotype, environment and GE interaction effect on soybean oil composition
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Changing the content of the five major soy-oil fatty acids is important to enhance food, fuel and other applications of soybean oil. In addition to genetic effects, the growth environment can significantly affect oil ...
Dissipation and carryover of imidazolinone herbicides in imidazolinone-resistant rice (Oryza sativa)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The development of Imidazolinone (IMI) Resistant (IR) rice now allows rice producers to selectively control red rice (Oryza sativa, O. rufipogon, and O.nivara), weedy relatives of commercial rice (O. sativa). Imazethapyr ...
