Comparison of thermoregulatory mechanisms in heat sensitive and tolerant breeds of Bos taurus cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
or minus] 7.5 Kg BW) steers from USDA-ARS, Brooksville, Florida were transported to the Brody Environmental Center at the University of Missouri. Steers were housed for 14 days at thermoneutrality (21C; TN) before 14 days of cyclic heat stress (HS; 26C...
Periconceptional, gestational, and lactational exposure to unconventional oil and gas chemical mixture alters energy expenditure in adult female mice
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Unconventional oil and gas (UOG) processes involves injection of pressurized water, chemicals, and suspended solids thousands of feet under the surface to release natural gas...

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, and toxin levels can...
Effect of bioprotectants on turkey sausage
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.]Food pathogens are of great public health significance, but the spoilage bacteria cause tremendous loss to the food industry. The objective of this study was to determine...

Phytoplankton response to water quality threats in Midwest reservoirs
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms and invasive species threaten water quality. These threats are expected to worsen in the future, emphasizing the need for creative management solutions and a thorough understanding of their ...
Forage production and diversification for climate-smart tropical and temperate silvopastures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
. We examined three distinct silvopastures, two in the country of Panama and one in the state of Missouri, to better understand how the integration of woody perennial trees and shrubs affects forage productivity, availability, and nutritional value...
Lifestyle treatment in the regression of NASH: insulin resistance, lipid synthesis, and methodological innovation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
This dissertation is focused on factors that increase risk for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFD) and the more advanced form nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). These factors include postprandial lipid handling ...
Developmental programming by xenoestrogens
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Xenoestrogens (XE) are chemicals in the environment that mimic the body's natural steroidal estrogens. Developmental exposure to XE may interfere with normal hormonal signaling...
Applications of ancestry estimation in cattle population genetics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
by population substructure. Human population genetics has examined these issues in detail and has developed models which incorporate ancestry effects in the estimation of population susceptibilities to disease risk in association analyses, as well...
Uncovering the genetic basis of seed amino acid composition in arabidopsis using a multi-omics integrative approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Seeds are a vital source of protein in the diet of humans and livestock. However, protein composition in the seed is low, comprising about 10 percent of the total composition in the seed. Additionally, protein quality in the seed is poor due to low...
Impacts of soil management practices on soil fertility in potato-based cropping systems in the Bolivian Andean highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Due to changes in climate and socioeconomic developments, current soil management practices in the Bolivian Andean Highlands may be increasing soil degradation thereby threatening food security. A study was established in ...
Involvement of aberrant chromosome architecture and locus-specific vulnerability to DNA methylation epimutations in bovine large offspring syndrome
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Large/abnormal offspring syndrome (LOS/AOS) and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) are similar congenital overgrowth syndromes which occur naturally in ruminants and humans, respectively. The incidence of these syndromes increases when offspring...
The validity of morphological features and osteological markers in reconstructing habitual activities
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Bony morphological features have been used to reflect biomechanical behavioral patterns among archaeological populations. Of most recent ones is the anterior femoral curvature (AFC). It has been proposed as a valid indicator ...
Uterine regulation of preimplantation embryo development in fertility-classified heifers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Infertility and subfertility represent pervasive problems in domestic animals and humans, and embryonic mortality is a major factor influencing reproductive efficiency. In cattle, the majority of embryonic loss occurs during the first month...
