Small Ruminant: Production and Reproduction
Scientific data for carcass traits of terminal-sire sheep breeds can be used to improve the value of market lambs, but information is lacking for modern terminal-sire breeds in the United States. Thus, the effects of terminal-sire breed on 14 fabricated carcass measurements were determined in F1 wether lambs. Columbia, USMARC-Composite (Composite), Suffolk, and Texel rams were mated with mature...
متن کاملSmall Ruminant: Goat Production
Chicory (Chicorum intybus) is becoming popular as a warm-season forage for ruminant livestock in the United States. A study was conducted with weaned crossbred meat goats to elucidate how growing / finishing meat goats grazing Joy chicory pasture respond to supplementation with varying levels of dietary protein. Thirty 6 weaned crossbred kids (26 ± 3 kg) were blocked by body weight and genotype...
متن کاملSmall Ruminant II
An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of unsaturated fatty acids supplementation on growth performance and carcass characteristics of finishing lambs. Thirty-two finishing Afshari lambs (initial weigh 58 ± 5 kg and 8 mo age) were used in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments (slaughtered in time series) and 8 lambs/treatment for the final 30 d before slaughter. The sla...
متن کاملInterferon tau and its immunobiological role in ruminant reproduction.
Interferon tau (IFN-tau) is an key cytokine in maintaining pregnancy in ruminants. It is produced by the ruminant conceptus around the time of implantation. IFN-tau belongs to the type I interferon family but, unlike the other members of this group, it is not virus inducible and its expression is temporal and restricted to the trophoblast cells of the ruminant conceptus. The main target of the ...
متن کاملPolyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Male Ruminant Reproduction — A Review
Fatty acids such as n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are critical nutrients, used to improve male reproductive performance through modification of fatty acid profile and maintenance of sperm membrane integrity, especially under cold shock or cryopreservation condition. Also, PUFA provide the precursors for prostaglandin synthesis and can modulate the expression patterns of many ke...
