The effects of supplemental fat and methionine hydroxy analogue on cellulose digestion in wether lambs
(University of Missouri., 1958)
"The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of different levels of two types of fat on cellulose diges tion in lambs on a poor quality roughage. Methionine hydroxy analogue, the alpha keto acid of methionine, ...
Killing them with kindness: a meso-dialectical study of the conceptual formation of humane and inhumane in the no-kill animal shelter movement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This research begins with one question: What is humane about humane? In the context of the no-kill animal shelter movement this study examines the social processes through which...
Remobilization of leaf nitrogen in stockpiled tall fescue
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Missouri's beef industry is supported by more than five million hectares of pasture containing the grass tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum). Stockpiled (accumulated autumn growth used for winter grazing) tall fescue leaf macronutrients decrease...
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, ...

Field performance of instrumentation for monitoring effects of timber harvesting on water quality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
in the Missouri Ozarks. The concept of a threshold event is introduced and defined as the amount of precipitation necessary under a specific set of environmental conditions to create collectable flow in the ephemeral channels. Precipitation and antecedent soil...
Ion-selective electrodes for simultaneous real-time analysis for soil macronutrients
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Automated sensing of soil macronutrients (i.e., N, P, and K) would allow more efficient mapping of soil nutrient variability for variable-rate nutrient management. This study reports on the development of a sensor array consisting of three different...

Fatty acid variation between forage species and within populations and fatty acid content of beef finished on pasture with different forage species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
We describe two experiments; the first experiment was conducted in a greenhouse where four forage species - orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), tall fescue [Lollium arundinaceum (Schreb.) S.J. Darbysh = Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort...
Physiological changes occurring in plant tissue as a result of stimuli administered to break the rest period
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1914)
It is a matter of common knowledge that most of our woody plants do not grow continuously throughout the year. The fact is brought to our attention especially in spring, when we may observe the awakening of the vegetation ...
The minimum protein requirement for growing dairy heifers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1918)
with such large farm animals as dairy heifers. Consequently the results cannot be entirely satisfactory from a scientific standpoint. Yet if such experiments are properly controlled they should give results of value both scientifically and practically."...

A quarterly econometric model of the United States beef sector
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1982)
The United States beef sector has been modeled in many studies, perhaps, because beef represents a large proportion of the consumer food dollar and agriculture’s income. The predictive performance of these models has been, however, quite...
Some factors influencing the lipase content of the blood
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
From the review of the literature of the lipase content of the blood it appears that no consistent series of determinations have been made through a period of time sufficient to learn under just what conditions the variation ...
