Abstract:
The role of selected hormones in the control of hair follicle activity, fibre growth and moult in cashmere goats was investigated by manipulation of prolactin (PRL), thyroid hormones, and growth hormone (GH) individually or in combination. In experiment 1, the effect of different doses of the anti-thyroid drug "propylthiouracil" (PTU), on thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) profiles and deiodinase enzyme activities in liver, kidney and skin tissues was determined. Types II and III deiodinase enzymes were found to be present in goat skin but not type I. It was concluded that the supply of

Abstract:
The effects of age and plane of nutrition on the body and carcass composition and mohair fibre yield and quality of British Angora wether goats slaughtered at six, 12, 18 and 24 months of age were investigated. Carcass yield, composition and conformation improved with increasing age and plane of nutrition. Greasy fleece weight also increased with increasing age and plane of nutrition but fibre quality declined since the increase in mass was achieved by means of increased fibre diameter with no effect of age or plane of nutrition on the fibre elongation rate. There was a constant relationship b

Problems associated with increasing trends towards high micronaire values for Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) have been a matter of concern for the Arizona cotton industry in recent years.

An evaluation of recent yield and fiber quality data from a number of locations in Arizona was evaluated in relation to trends within Arizona and across the U.S. cotton belt.

The model includes three parts: (1) the flow of medium using incompressible Navier-Stokes equations; (2) the mass transport of FGF-2 using convection-diffusion equations; and (3) the cell surface binding using chemical kinetics.

The literature presents evidences of individual actions of those factors, but there is a lack on informations in respect to interactive effects.

Master of Science<br>Department of Animal Sciences and Industry<br>John Michael Gonzalez<br>The objective of this body of work was to examine effects of growth-promoting technologies (GP) on Longissimus lumborum meat tenderness, focusing on alterations of muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) and collagen solubility. Two studies were conducted and analyzed as randomized complete block designs with repeated measures with GP and day of postmortem aging (DOA) as main effects. Treatments consisted of: a control (CON), implant only (IMP), and implant and [beta]-adrenergic agonist (COMBO). The [be

Abstract:
Virtual crack closure technique (VCCT) is commonly used to analyze debonding/delamination onset and growth in fiber reinforced composite assemblies. VCCT is a computational fracture mechanics based approach, and is based on Irwin&rsquo<br>s crack closure integral. In this study, the debonding/delamination onset and growth potential in a bonded fiber reinforced composite skin-flange assembly is investigated using the VCCT. A parametric finite element analyses is conducted. The finite element analyses results are compared with coupon level experimental results available in the literature. The e

Abstract:
<p> In my thesis I investigated whether loss of growth hormone receptor (GHR) signaling affects post-natal skeletal muscle development and regenerative ability in adult male mice, and whether the effect is via insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signaling. Mouse models were used that had a post-natal muscle-specific loss of GHR signaling (<b>mGHRKO</b>), insulin-like growth factor receptor/ insulin receptor (IGF-1R/IR) signaling (<b>MKR </b>), and loss of both GHR and IGF-1R/IR signaling (<b>mGHRKO/MKR</b>). The loss of GHR signaling did not alter muscle <i>igf-1</i> expression, fib

Este estudo comparou o efeito de dietas com palha de milho com ou sem blocos com multinutrientes na variação de peso de 24 caprinos com 8 meses de idade e peso médio de 11 kg (±0,61) , durante 6 meses da época seca. No final deste período foi conduzido um estudo de digestibilidade \"in vivo\" em 8 caprinos sendo 4 por tratamento. Os blocos com multinutrientes aumentaram o consumo total (g dia -1) de MS (519,71 vs 278,95; p<0,001), MO (369,32 vs 219,93; p<0,001) , PB (67,83 vs 12,47; p<0,001), FDN (292,66 vs 183,62; p<0,001), FDA (208,28 vs 126,15; p<0,001) , Hemicelulose (83,13 vs 57,48; p <0,

Abstract:
Beef products represent the fourth largest agricultural commodity in the state of California, valuing more than $3 billion from 2013 to 2015 (CDFA, 2016) and procure 90% of the income for the range livestock industry (FRAP, 2003). Forages found on California’s coastal, desert, foothill, and mountain ranges are the basis of the state’s beef cattle industry. Understanding their nutritional quality of these forages is important for their effective use (George et al., 2001a; Waterman et al., 2014). The objectives of this research were to investigate the nutritional characteristics, and in situ dig
