An analysis of aspartic peptidases expressed by trophoblasts and placenta of even-toed ungulates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The Pregnancy Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) represent a multigene family of trophoblast expressed proteins, found exclusively in the placenta of even-toed mammals such as ruminants (cattle, sheep), pig, etc. In ruminants, ...
Temporal effects of fescue toxicosis and heat stress on rat physiology and hepatic gene expression
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Fescue toxicosis results from intake of toxins in fescue containing an endophytic fungus, Neotyphodium coenophialum. Time-related changes in rats associated with intake of an endophyte-infected fescue diet (E+) were evaluated ...
The effects of supplemental rumen-protected fat in feedlot rations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Four experiments were conducted to determine the effects of supplemental rumen-protected fat in feedlot rations. The first experiment tested the effects ...
The importance of the supplementation of zinc in nursey pig diets
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Two 28-d experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of feeding pharmacological concentrations of Zn, from organic and inorganic sources, on growth performance and intestinal microbial population in nursery pigs. ...
Digestible lysine and threonine requirements of male turkeys and their effects on performance of male turkeys fed practical diets to market age
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Seven experiments were conducted to determine the minimum requirements of digestible lysine (dLys) and digestible threonine (dThr) from 1 to 21 weeks of age for male turkeys. Requirement values were similar to NRC (1994) ...
