Aphididae) on Fungal Endophyte-Infected and Uninfected Perennial Ryegrass
The behavior and performance of the Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis no&r (Mordvilko), on fungal endophyte-infected and endophyte-free perennial ryegrass, Lolium perenne L., was investigated in the laboratory and field. Aphids did not select endophytefree over endophyte-infected leaf sheaths and stem segments in petri dish preference tests. Similarly, the probing behavior of D. noxia on endophyte...
متن کاملLolium Endophyte and Sheep Performance on Perennial Ryegrass Cultivars
Some effects of l&m endophyte (Acremonium lolioe) on sheep production were evaluated using pure swards of h igh (SO%>) and low (< 5%) endophyte Nui and Ar ik i ryegrass. The proportion of infected t i l lers in high endophyte treatments increased by 19% in 15 months. Ryegrass staggers occurred on both high endophyte ryegrasses being sl ight ly worse on Nui . The peak ryegrass staggers outbreak ...
متن کاملPhysiological Responses of Cattle to Heat Stress
Pakistan lies in the Warm Climate Zones of the world and is subjected to extended periods of high ambient temperature and relative humidity. The objective of this article is to review the physiologic/adaptive responses of acclimated cattle to heat stress emphasizing its affects on nutrient acquisition and metabolism, acid-base chemistry and hormonal balance of the body. Heat stress invokes a de...
متن کاملEnvironmental factors influencing heat stress in feedlot cattle.
Data from 3 summer feedlot studies were utilized to determine the environmental factors that influence heat stress in cattle and also to determine wind speed (WSPD; m.s(-1)) and solar radiation (RAD; W.m(-2)) adjustments to the temperature-humidity index (THI). Visual assessments of heat stress, based on panting scores (0 = no panting to 4 = severe panting), were collected from 1400 to 1700. Me...
متن کاملEffects of heat-stress on production in dairy cattle.
The southeastern United States is characterized as humid subtropical and is subject to extended periods of high ambient temperature and relative humidity. Because the primary nonevaporative means of cooling for the cow (radiation, conduction, convection) become less effective with rising ambient temperature, the cow becomes increasingly reliant upon evaporative cooling in the form of sweating a...
