(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Sixteen Hereford x Holstein (HH), 25 Hereford x Jersey and 27 Hereford (H) cows 7 to 12 yr of age grazed native and improved pastures as a single group in two experiments. Cows were mated to one of two Charolais bulls over ...

Skeletal development in growing ponies fed high-energy diets and differing nutrient, calorie ratios (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Skeletal development was examined in weanling pony foals fed either (1) a control diet of 100% NRC requirement for energy and all other nutrients (n=6); (2) a high-energy diet containing 138% of NRC recommended level of ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Ingestive and ruminative chewing, meal and dorsal rumen contractions were measured in yearling beef steers offered foraged diets based on either Coastal bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers] or sorghum X sudan [Sorghum ...

Use of active immunization against somatostatin in the manipulation of the ruminant endocrine system (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Three experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of active immunization against somatostatin (SS) on, 1) the lactational performance of ruminants, 2) growth hormone (GH) secretion and metabolism and 3) the ...
