متن کاملInitial results of genomic scans for ovulation rate in a cattle population selected for increased twinning rate.
Genomic scans were conducted with 273 markers on 181 sires from a cattle population selected for increased twinning rate to identify chromosomal regions containing genes that influence ovulation rate. Criteria used for selecting markers were number of alleles, ease of scoring, and relative position within linkage group. Markers were multiplexed or multiple-loaded on the gels to reduce the costs...

An alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivar with a low initial rate of digestion (LIRD), AC Grazeland B , was developed to test the hypothesis that the rate of cell rupture was a cause of frothy bloat in cattle or sheep. The amount of cell wall increases and digestibility declines as plants mature. Thus the cell rupture theory also predicts that the bloat potential of alfalfa is related to maturit...
متن کاملFoamy bloat of cattle. A review.
Bloat is a disorder of ruminants caused by retention of gas in the stomach. Gas is produced continuously and in large amounts in the ruminant stomach and is eliminated normaUy by the animal without difficulty. Sometimes, however, the rate of elimination falls behind the rate of production so that gas starts to accumulate in the rumino-reticulum (hereinafter called the rumen). If the disparity c...
