Digestion of Alfalfa Hay Using Washed Ruminal Bacteria
A culture system for digesting forages utilizing washed ruminal bacteria was examined. Cultures inoculated with washed bacterial suspensions had similar cellulolytic populations but lower methane production rates than did cultures inoculated with rumen fluid. Subsequent experiments utilized washed cell suspensions. Urea supplementation (8 mM) increased total bacterial and cellulolytic populatio...
متن کاملEffects of supplemental alfalfa hay on feed intake and digestion by Holstein steers consuming high-quality bermudagrass or orchardgrass hay.
Effects of level and frequency of supplementation with alfalfa (A) on feed intake and digestion by steers fed bermudagrass (B) or orchardgrass (O) were determined in two Latin square experiments. In Exp. 1, six Holstein steers (224 kg) were fed B (2.25% N; 71.4% NDF) or O (2.52% N; 64.3% NDF) with 0, 15 or 30% (DM) A (2.70% N; 44.0% NDF). Total DMI was 2.43, 2.72 and 2.85% BW for B and 2.98, 3....
متن کاملConservation genetics and North American bison (Bison bison).
The many millions of North American bison in the mid-19th century were reduced to near extinction by the middle 1880s. Plains bison, the subspecies found in the United States, were saved from extinction primarily by 5 private ranchers and the survival of a small herd in what is now Yellowstone National Park. This bottleneck resulted in the present-day plains bison population being descended fro...
متن کاملFibre type characteristics and postmortem glycolysis of bison (Bison bison bison) Longissimus lumborum
Janz, J. A. M., Aalhus, J. L. and Price, M. A. 2002. Fibre type characteristics and postmortem glycolysis of bison (Bison bison bison) longissimus lumborum. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 82: 259–262. To augment the limited information base, muscle fibre and postmortem glycolytic data from bison longissimus lumborum were compiled. As expected, postmortem glycogen concentration and pH declined while lactate...
متن کاملFat source and calcium level effects on finishing steer performance, digestion, and metabolism.
A 111-d finishing study evaluated animal growth and carcass characteristics using 138 steers (366 kg) in a randomized complete block design with a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement of treatments. The dietary treatments consisted of no supplemental fat or 3.5% tallow or soybean oil soapstock (SS) fed with .6% and .9% dietary Ca. Fat increased DMI (P less than .05) but interacted with Ca level (P less ...
