Invited review: Genetic considerations for various pasture-based dairy systems.
Pasture-based dairy systems use grazing to supply significant percentages of the dry matter intake of cows and heifers. Such systems vary from those for which pasture is used only as a supplemental feed for cows primarily fed a total mixed ration to those for which pasture is the primary source of dry matter for the herd. Cows that are optimal in a pasture system share many general characterist...
متن کاملINVITED REVIEW: PART OF AN INVITED ISSUE ON TREE NUTRITION Phosphorus nutrition of mycorrhizal trees
Globally, phosphorus (P) limits productivity of trees in many forests and plantations especially in highly weathered, acidic or calcareous profiles. Most trees form mycorrhizal associations which are prevalent in the organic and mineral soil horizons. This review critically examines mechanisms that enhance the acquisition of P by tree roots. Mycorrhizal roots have a greater capacity to take up ...
متن کاملINVITED REVIEW: PART OF AN INVITED ISSUE ON TREE NUTRITION Nutrition of mangroves
Mangrove forests dominate the world's tropical and subtropical coastlines. Similar to other plant communities, nutrient availability is one of the major factors influencing mangrove forest structure and productivity. Many mangrove soils have extremely low nutrient availability, although nutrient availability can vary greatly among and within mangrove forests. Nutrient-conserving processes in ma...
متن کاملIndigenous Sheep Production in Ethiopia: A Review
Research results and facts of indigenous sheep production were reviewed with the aim of delivering relevant information for the beneficiaries. The common production system used in Ethiopia was the extensive type, which was characterized by small flock sizes and the flock being periodically devastated by diseases. Some indigenous sheep groups of the country were characterized and their names wer...
متن کاملNonruminant Nutrition: Mineral-Mineral Interactions: Implications for Nutrition
Inorganic elements (metals, non-metals, transition elements, and electrolytes commonly called “minerals” in nutrition science) are critical to all life processes as enzyme cofactors, stabilizers of proteins, structural components of tissues, second messengers, regulators of acid-base balance, participants in redox reactions, and for the maintenance of cellular electrical potential. For this rea...
