to evaluate the effect of application of municipal solid waste compost (mswc) on the accumulation of heavy metals of lead, nickel and cadmium in the soil under maize cultivation, a factorial experiment in base randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four different amounts of municipal solid waste compost (zero, 15, 30 and 60 tons ha-1) and time (compost applied once or twice) was performed...

Nutrient digestibility in distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) is limited by constraints such as particle size and fiber. Wheat DDGS contains more fiber than corn DDGS that may reduce its nutritional value in swine feeds. Dry fractionation may create DDGS fractions with low and high fiber content; therefore, wheat DDGS was processed sequentially using a vibratory sifter and gravity tabl...

Little information is available comparing wheat forage varieties, rumen fermentation and biomass production for different wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars. A combination of grazing and in vitro experiments was conducted at Texas A & M (TAM) AgriLife Research and Extension Center, Vernon, TX from 2003 to 2004. Our objective was to determine the effects of wheat varieties (WV) and forage al...

the aim of this paper is to classify the finite simple groups with the number of zeros at most seven greater than the number of nonlinear irreducible characters in the character tables. we find that they are exactly a$_{5}$, l$_{2}(7)$ and a$_{6}$.

Because grain is highly digestible, maize hybrids for silage production are generally chosen based on their The nutritive value of forage maize (Zea mays L.) may be improved grain yield. However, the stalk portion of the maize through genetic selection for increased rate of fiber digestion or decreased indigestible fiber concentration. To identify sources of genetic plant contains 50% or more o...
