Comparison of Herbage Production on Moderately Grazed and Ungrazed Western Ranges

Diversity of Coprophagous Scarabaeidae (Coleoptera) in Grazed Versus Ungrazed Sandhills Prairie in Western Nebraska

on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning

the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...

study the effects of low level laser diode on no production and healing of diabetic and cortisone acetate and normal wounded sd rats

nitric oxide (no) is a small molecule synthesized by most of mammalian cells with diverse biological activities including vasodilatation, host defense and wound healing. impaired wound healing is a common occurrence among diabetics and patients receiving glucocorticoid therapy. on the other hand the application of laser in biomedical area have been increased. thus, the current studies were desi...

Bird Communities in Grazed and Ungrazed Oak-Pine Woodlands at the San Joaquin Experimental Range1

Ten years of spot-mapping censuses in grazed and ungrazed plots at the San Joaquin Experimental Range, Madera Co., California, indicate likely changes in abundance of several bird species. Data do not, however, indicate that any species is in jeopardy as a result of grazing in the foothill woodlands. Brown-headed cowbirds are probably more abundant in the woodlands with cattle than without catt...

Comparison of rumen fermentation patterns and in situ degradation of grazed herbage in Churra and Merino sheep

The aim of this experiment was to study the effect of breed (Churra and Merino) and advancing season (middle June, late July and early October) on rumen fermentation in sheep grazing a continuously stocked grass /white clover pasture. Six mature sheep (three Churra and three Merino) fitted with rumen cannulae were used. During each grazing period, samples of the grazed herbage (obtained using t...
