Full textAbstract:
Summary A preliminary survey indicated that the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica is widely distributed in the rhizosphere of medicinal plants in Boyer-Ahmad region (Iran). Host suitability of ten species of medicinal plants to M. javanica was examined in a pot experiment under controlled greenhouse conditions: alkakengy (Physalis alkekengi L.), chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.), English plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.), garden anchusa (Anchusa italica Retz.), horehound (Marrubium vulgare L.), lovage (Levisticum officinale L.), sorrel (Rumex acetosella L.), thistle (Echinops adenocaulos Boiss.) and woundwort (Stachys pilifera Benth.). According to the scheme of Canto-Saenz, seven species, namely garden anchusa, fennel, horehound, alkakengy, English plantain, woundwort and sorrel can be considered susceptible hosts with gall index (GI) > 2 and reproduction factor (RF) > 1, and thistle, lovage and chamomile, can be considered as hyper-susceptible with GI > 2 and RF ≤ 1.

"A simple model to examine the impact of changes in wood traits on the costs of thermomechanical pulping and high-brightness newsprint production with radiata pine." Canadian Journal of Forest Research 29, no. 10 (October 1, 1999): 1615–26. http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/x99-127.
Full textAbstract:
A number of functions were investigated that related the costs of thermomechanical pulp (TMP) and high-brightness newsprint production, using Pinus radiata D. Don, to important pulp and paper quality (breeding objective) variables, including specific energy consumption and pulp handsheet tear and tensile strength, brightness, and opacity. Pulp handsheet quality traits were considered to be reasonable two-dimensional predictors of paper quality traits in this context. A specific production process that requires the use of a reinforcement kraft pulp and an artificial clay filler to improve the quality of paper produced from the bleached TMP fibres was investigated, similar to the production process used by Australian Newspaper Mills' Boyer Mill in Tasmania, Australia. Pulp and pulp handsheet quality variables could be explained by significant (P > 0.05) wood traits using multiple linear regression equations. This provided a method to predict the economic importance of each wood trait in relation to the thermomechanical production process investigated. The results showed that tracheid length, wood density, wood brightness, and tracheid coarseness were the best predictors of costs. Increases in tracheid length, wood density, and wood brightness and decreases in tracheid coarseness resulted in decreasing the total costs of TMP and high-brightness newsprint production.

Full textAbstract:
A geographical survey of sediments in the Derwent Estuary, near Hobart (Tasmania), for sterol biomarkers of faecal pollution has established the extent, distribution and severity of sewage pollution in the estuary. Analysis of biomarkers for terrestrial plants has also determined the distribution of pulp fibre discharged from a paper mill at Boyer in the upper estuary. Contributions from other sources of extractable organics, such as hydrocarbons and terrestrial plant and animal faecal matter from stormwater and creeks were qualitatively evaluated. On the basis of the distribution of the faecal biomarker coprostanol, the mid estuary and parts of the upper estuary (from Newtown Bay to Taroona) are severely contaminated by sewage. Pollution from pulp fibre is worst in the upper estuary and concentrations of pulp-fibre biomarkers decrease downstream. Sediments of the lower estuary (south of Taroona) have biomarker distributions more typical of open marine systems with little evidence of pulp fibre. There is, however, evidence of low concentrations of faecal pollution in the lower estuary.

Full textAbstract:
Viburnum tinus L., commonly known as laurustinus, is an ornamental shrub that is widely used as a garden plant and flower crop. V. tinus is popular because of its desirable characteristics such as evergreen foliage, tolerance to pruning, winter blooms, and its adaptation to cold temperate zones. It is also relatively easy to grow and is commonly used as a windbreak. Infection of this ornamental species by Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) has been associated with yellow mottling or variegated leaf coloring, including light green and white, and has been referred to as the “Viburnum Calico” (1,4). In April 2011, at the onset of winter in the Southern Hemisphere, intense yellow spotting and mottling was observed on V. tinus leaves in the San Joaquin Campus at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile. Presence of Aphis spiraecola Patch was observed on the shrubs, however, in the area it is also common to find other aphid species such as Toxoptera aurantii (Boyer de Fonscolombe) and A. fabae Scopoli. Leaf tissue samples from 10 asymptomatic and 10 symptomatic plants were examined for the presence of AMV by tissue-blot immunoassay with a commercially available polyclonal antibody (Agdia Inc., Elkhart, IN) along with the Goat affinity purified anti-rabbit IgG conjugated (Whole Molecule) (Molecular Probes, Invitrogen Corp., Carlsbad, CA). First-strand cDNA synthesis and PCR were performed with specific primers CP-AMV1 and CP-AMV2 (3). AMV was detected in all symptomatic leaves and also in two of the asymptomatic tissue analyzed by tissue blot assay. Reverse transcription (RT)-PCR produced 753-bp amplicons in all samples that were positive to AMV by tissue printing. No amplification product was observed when water control or seronegative samples were used as templates in the RT-PCR assays. Two amplicons were directly sequenced in both directions to confirm the identification of AMV in the leaf samples. The sequences obtained were homologous and BLASTN analysis of the submitted sequence (GenBank Accession No. JN040542) showed 99% nucleotide sequence identity to an AMV isolate described from Nicotiana tabacum L. (GenBank Accession No. FJ527749). These results demonstrate the presence of AMV in V. tinus in Chile. This pathogen has also been described to be affecting V. tinus in France (1) and V. lucidum Mill. in Spain (2). In Chile, V. tinum is increasingly grown as an ornamental plant. Therefore, care should be taken to ensure that the propagative materials of V. tinum are devoid of AMV infection to prevent further spread of this virus. References: (1) L. Cardin et al.

Full textAbstract:
A Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore é uma palmeira nativa do Brasil que é alvo do extrativismo anual da sua folha para retirada do pó e produção da cera, um produto muito comercializado nacional e internacionalmente. Essa palmeira vem sofrendo com a ameaça da Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer, espécie nativa da ilha de Madagascar, África. Essa planta, é considerada invasora no semiárido brasileiro, principalmente no bioma Caatinga, devido a sua facilidade de formar densas populações. O objetivo desse trabalho é comparar a estrutura fitossociológica de duas áreas de Caatinga com atividade extrativista da folha da Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore e com a presença de Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer. Assim, foram selecionadas duas áreas, Área I – atividade extrativista intensiva das folhas da Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore, Área II – não possui atividade extrativista intensiva. Para análise fitossociológica utilizou-se o método de parcelas, e catalogados os indivíduos com circunferência a altura do peito maior ou igual a 5 cm e altura maior ou igual a 1 m. Para a avaliação das comunidades vegetais, foram analisados os parâmetros fitossociológicos convencionais, e os índices de Similaridade, Diversidade, Equabilidade e Impacto Ambiental de Exóticas. Como resultado, foram inventariados 2.567 indivíduos pertencentes a 21 famílias, 28 gêneros e 39 espécies, das quais 21 são nativas, 17 endêmicas, 1 cultivada e 1 naturalizada, percebeu-se também que a diversidade na Área I foi menor quando comparada ao Área II. Assim, conclui-se que a presença da Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer associada à atividade extrativista intensiva reduz número de gêneros, espécies e famílias na Caatinga.Palavras-chave: Extrativismo, Semiárido, Fitodiversidade, Impacto Ambiental de Exóticas. Phytosociology of Two Caatinga Woods Used for Leaf Extraction of Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore and Infested by Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer A B S T R A C TThe Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore is a palm tree native to Brazil that is the target of the annual extractivism of its leaf for dust removal and wax production, a product very commercialized nationally and internationally. This palm has been suffering from the threat of Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer, a species native to the island of Madagascar, Africa. This plant is considered invasive in the Brazilian semiarid, mainly in the Caatinga biome, due to its ease of forming dense populations. The objective of this work is to compare the phytosociological structure of two areas of Caatinga with different degrees of extractive activity, leaves of Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore and infestation by Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer in the municipality of Pacatuba - Ceará, Brazil. Thus, two areas were selected, Area I - intensive extractive activity of the leaves of Copernicia prunifera (Mill.) H.E.Moore, Area II - does not have intensive extractive activity. For phytosociological analysis, the plots method was used, and individuals with circumference greater than or equal to 5 cm and height greater than or equal to 1 m were cataloged. For the evaluation of plant communities, conventional phytosociological parameters were analyzed, along with the Similarity, Diversity, Equability and Environmental Impact of Exotics. As a result, 2,567 individuals belonging to 21 families, 28 genera and 39 species were inventoried, of which 21 are native, 17 endemic, 1 cultivated and 1 naturalized, it was also noticed that the diversity in Area I was lower when compared to Area II. Thus, it is concluded that the presence of Cryptostegia madagascariensis Bojer associated with intensive extractive activity reduces the number of genera, species and families in the Caatinga.Keywords: Extractivism, Semiarid, Phytodiversity, Environmental Impact of Exotics.

Full textAbstract:
The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effect of 2 feeding systems and 5 breeding groups on the growth performance, biometric features, and stomach morphology of feedlot goat kids. The experiment utilized gender as a randomized blocking factor in a 5 × 2 factorial scheme. The study goats were from the Alpine, Anglo-Nubian, 1/2 Boer x Alpine, 3/4 Boer x Alpine, and 7/8 Boer x Alpine breeds. Half of the goats were fed an experimental diet, whereas the other half were given the same diet supplemented with 1.5 L milk daily. The kids were slaughtered after they attained 30 kg body weight. The 1/2 Boer x Alpine goats showed superior growth performance because they exhibiting considerable heterosis. These animals are especially easy to use given that there is no need to maintain cross-bred females (½ Boer x Alpine e ¾ Boer x Alpine) in the flock. Using milk in the feed the animals does not adversely affect growth performance or biometric features. Moreover, it helps to reduce the total weight of the stomach and leads to a 51.39% savings on feed. Dietary supplementation of milk in goat feed is recommended so long as there is excess milk available on the property.

Full textAbstract:
Sixty goats (20 Alpine, 18 Anglo-Nubian, and 22 crossbred Boer), with average body weight 49.33 ± 1.41 kg, were raised on Panicum maximum cv. Tobiatã pasture with two different levels of concentrate supplementation, 300 (SL30) and 600 g kg-1 (SL60) of the daily requirements, and evaluated from the pre-mating season until an average of 110 days of lactation. Milk controls were performed every 14 days. The following milk production curve parameters were estimated: time to reach peak milk production (TP), peak milk production (PP) and milk production during the first 110 days of lactation (MP). The following milk components were determined: fat, protein, lactose, total solids (TS), defatted dry extract (DDE), urea nitrogen (UN) concentrations, and somatic cell count (SCC). Goat prolificacy and birth weight of the kids were also determined. Breed affected the lactation curve, with Alpine and Anglo- Nubian goats presenting higher TP, PP, and MP. Protein, TS, and DDE concentrations were also affected by breed, being higher for crossbred Boer goats. Milk fat, lactose concentrations, and the log of SCC were affected by the concentrate supplementation level, being higher for SL30, as well as by the breed, with crossbred Boer goats presenting higher fat concentrations and log of SCC, and crossbred Boer and Alpine goats presenting higher lactose concentrations. UN was affected by the stage of lactation. Prolificacy and birth weight were affected by breed and concentrate supplementation level, being higher for Anglo-Nubian and crossbred Boer goats with SL60. Kids from single births presented higher birth weights. The Anglo-Nubian breed presented good milk production and the best body condition, which might indicate the effectiveness of this production system, SL60 supplementation resulted in higher birth weight and prolificacy.

Full textAbstract:
In dairy goats, the low average daily gain and the high conversion ratio for milk and concentrate of the kids mean that their sale price does not offset the costs generated. The hypothesis proposes that a crossbreeding of the Murciano-Granadina breed (MG) with the Boer breed (MG×Boer) will improve the profitability of the kids sold. Thus, the effect of two different groups of kids (purebred MG and crossbred MG×Boer) on birth weight (BW), mortality, average daily gain (ADG), the time for minimum slaughter weight (7 kg) and its variation factors were studied. MG×Boer kids had a 27% greater BW than purebred MG kids (2885 ± 84 g and 2275 ± 74 g, respectively), similar ADG (156 ± 6 g and 142 ± 6 g, respectively) and mortality (18% and 20%, respectively), and reached minimum slaughter weight a week sooner. ADG was less and less as the lactation period progressed due to a lower milk consumption and milk energy value, which highlights the importance of providing a concentrate that will compensate for this reduced energy content. In conclusion, the results show that MG×Boer crossbred kids reached the minimum slaughter weight a week earlier than purebred MG kids, and highlighted the improvement of farm profitability through the increase of milk sold and the need to provide a concentrate feed to enhance the growth of the kids.

Full textAbstract:
The sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Fabr.) is the main sugarcane pest in Brazil. In the State of São Paulo, the main active population control of D. saccharalis is by inundative releases of the exotic parasitoid, Cotesia flavipes (Cam.). However, the production of C. flavipes in sugar mills entails costs and few studies have evaluated the effects of native predators on sugarcane borer populations. Using a simple colony translocation method, we evaluated the effect of fire ants (Solenopsis spp.) on population densities of D. saccharalis and concurrently upon rates of parasitism by classical biological control agents in the São João sugar mill in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. The translocation technique proved to be feasible and economically possible. Sugarcane borers were sampled in each of the 5 areas for each treatment in two 1.4 x 5.0 m (7 m²) points (sample size), by opening and visually examining all canes. The average numbers and its respective standard deviations (SD) for D. saccharalis population densities before and after colony translocations considering 0, 5, 10 and 15 colonies added per 0.5 ha were, 9.2 ± 5.9, 8.4 ± 3.4, 9.0 ± 6.9, 9.4 ± 8.1 and 3.2 ± 1.8, 2.8 ± 2.7, 2.6 ± 1.5, 3.8 ± 2.8, respectively. However, we detected no significant changes in sugarcane borer densities with respect to ant colony densities over a two-week period, none of which were greater than for no colony additions. No effects of colony translocations on parasitism rates of braconid and tachinid parasitoids on D. saccharalis were detected. Thus, although the translocation technique was economically feasible, no reductions of D. saccharalis densities were produced by colony additions, and may not be a viable alternative for D. saccharalis population reduction, especially at the low population levels which prevail in Brazil.

Clinical and radiographic findings suggested a fractured anconeal process.Such a fracture after mild trauma is uncommon and indicates the possibility of a disorder in the area of the growth plate between anconeal process and ulna. Therefore this case could be related to the complex of the ununited anconeal process, too.A one-year-old Boxer sustained a fracture of the anconeal process following a mild trauma. This case might be related to the complex of the ununited anconeal process.

Postfire salvage logging is used to reduce economic losses; however, burned trees are rapidly colonized by wood-boring insects, which reduce the merchantable value of the wood. This study aims to predict wood borer (Monochamus Megerle in Dejean, 1821) attacks after wildfire as a function of rapidly available variables such as tree basal area, stem diameter, and burn severity using the differenced normalized burn ratio (dNBR). In 2011, we sampled 60 black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) Britton, Sterns & Poggenb.) or jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) plots in five burns from 2010 in the Haute-Mauricie region of Quebec, Canada. A 50 cm bole section was debarked on seven trees in each plot to estimate wood borer attack density. Wood borer attacks were more abundant in black spruce than in jack pine. As a continuous variable, dNBR unveiled a quadratic effect of burn severity on attack density in black spruce, which was higher at moderate burn severity. In jack pine, the highest levels of attack density were found at high burn severity. Models produced in this article will help forest managers to better prioritize areas for salvage logging and thus reduce economic losses due to wood borer activity.

The aim of this study is to determine the influence of goat breeds (Saanen, Jamnapari and Boer) on the biological quality of milk in Malaysia and to compare the chemical composition of SFAs, MUFAs and PUFAs concentration of milk across the three breeds. Nine milk samples were collected from three different breeds of goats namely Saanen, Jamnapari and Boer. All samples were taken in triplicate and analysed for fatty acid composition of the milk using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). According to the GC-MS results, 13 fatty acids were identified and expressed relatively in the percentage of peak areas (%) and evaluated in three types of fatty acid groups, which are saturated fatty acid (SFA), monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). The total of SFA varies from 57.48% to 66.10% and is the most abundant fatty acid group in each of the samples. In addition, the total of MUFA was also found ranging from 22.07% to 39.06%, while the total of PUFA is from 0% to 4.06%. 13-octadecenoic acid was detected as the highest concentration for each of the Saanen and Jamnapari breed samples, and hexadecanoic acid for the Boer breed samples. These results have confirmed that each individual species have their own unique fatty acid composition that can contribute as part of complete nutrition for the well-being of the ummah.

The first evaluation of milk yield was done at early stage of lactation starting after day seven of kidding to exclude colostrum. Daily collection of milk samples followed in the morning and evening until 10 weeks of lactation. The weeks were divided into 3 stages of lactation as early, mid and late lactation stages. Milk samples were measured using a 100 mL measuring cylinder and later converted into grammes. The external udder measurements were taken in cm after seven days post kidding and fortnightly for the period of lactation. The result obtained shows significant difference (p<0.05) in the total morning milk yield between the goats. The total morning milk yield was higher (2642.00 ± 3.18 g) in the Boer goats than in the Red Sokoto (2371.50± 3.18 g). However, the average daily milk yield, total milk yield and total evening milk yield were not significantly (p>0.05) affected by the breeds of goat. Mean milk yield was significantly (p<0.05) influenced by stage of lactation and time of milking. The milk yield was significantly higher (98.91 g) in the late lactation while the least was obtained in the mid stage of lactation (65.44 g). Moreover, the morning milk yield was significantly higher than the evening milk yield. A significant interaction effect (p<0.05) of lactation stage and milking time was similarly observed. The results indicated that breed significantly (p<0.05) influenced most of the udder traits except UC, UW and TFD. Significantly (p<0.05) higher values of UL, UW, TC, RTL, LTL, CH and TFD were recorded in the Red Sokoto. Furthermore, the Boer goat breed had significantly higher values of NT, UC and DBT.
Le but de l'étude était d'évaluer l'effet de la traite de traite, de la phase de lactation et des traits de la piste sur le rendement du lait de Red Sokoto et des chèvres de Boer à la ferme du Centre d'agriculture à sec, de l'Université Bayero Kano, du Nigéria. La première évaluation du rendement en lait a été effectuée à un stade précoce de l'allaitement à partir de sept jours de blague pour exclure le colostrum. La collecte quotidienne d'échantillons de lait a suivi le matin et le soir jusqu'à 10 semaines de lactation. Les semaines ont été divisées en 3 étapes de la lactation comme des étapes de début et de lactation tardive. Les échantillons de lait ont été mesurés à l'aide d'un cylindre de mesure de 100 ml et convertis ultérieurement en grammes. Les mensurations externes de la mamelle ont été prises en cm après sept jours après la mise bas et tous les quinze jours pendant la période de lactation. Le résultat obtenu présente une différence significative (p <0,05) dans le rendement le lait total du matin entre les chèvres. Le rendement au lait total du matin était plus élevé (2642,00 ± 3,18 g) dans les chèvres Boer que dans le Sokoto rouge (2371.50 ± 3,18 g). Cependant, le rendement quotidien moyen quotidien, le rendement total du lait et le rendement au lait total de la soirée n'étaient pas significativement (p> 0,05) affectés par les races de chèvre. Le rendement en lait moyen était significativement (p <0,05) influencé par la phase de lactation et du temps de traite. Le rendement en lait était significativement plus élevé (98,91 g) à la fin de la lactation, tandis que le moindre a été obtenu au stade moyen de la lactation (65,44 g). De plus, le rendement au lait du matin était nettement supérieur au rendement le lait du soir. Un effet d'interaction significatif (P <0,05) de stade de lactation et de délai de traite a été observé de la même manière. Les résultats ont indiqué que la race de manière significative (p <0,05) a influencé la plupart des traits de pis de la piste, à l'exception des UC, UW et TFD. De manière significative (p <0,05) des valeurs plus élevées d'UL, UW, TC, RTL, LTL, CH et TFD ont été enregistrées dans le Red Sokoto. De plus, la race de chèvre Boer avait des valeurs significativement plus élevées de NT, UC et DBT.

Abstract Objective The purpose of the present study was to compare Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (WAIS-IV) Reliable Digit Span (RDS) and Digit Span Age-Corrected Scaled Score (DS-ACSS) sensitivity and specificity, when the effort criterion was determined by between one and five performance validity test (PVT) cut scores. Method Data were collected from 82 adults (18–49) referred for clinical questions of multiple sclerosis, mild traumatic brain injury, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Patients were administered full neuropsychological batteries,with different combinations of PVTs (including Advanced Clinical Solutions Word Choice, Animals raw score, Trails A T-score, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test [WCST; Suhr & Boyer] equation, and California Verbal Learning Test-II Forced Choice). Chi-square and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were utilized. Results Using established RDS (≤7) and DS-ACSS (≤6) cut scores, specificity was highest (90&37; and 86%, respectively), with equivalent sensitivity (90%), when effort was determined by WCST (Suhr & Boyer) equation failure alone. Related area under the curve for RDS was .90 (CI = .76–1.0) and for DS-ACSS was .88 (CI = .74–1.0). Conclusions In this clinical sample, the highest sensitivity and specificity were observed when the RDS cut score was utilized, and effort was based on the WCST criterion. However, the DS-ACSS cut score resulted in strong sensitivity/specificity combinations across more effort classification groups.

Full textAbstract:
The effect of dietary inclusion of increasing levels of Flemingia macrophylla hay on the yield, composition and fatty acid profile of milk from Saanen x Boer goats was evaluated. The diets were composed of 40% concentrate and 60% forage. The treatments were defined by the level of inclusion of Flemingia hay in the diet (0, 80, 160, 240 and 320 g kg-1 dry matter) in replacement of the Cynodon dactylon cv. Tifton-85 hay, distributed according to a 5 x 5 Latin Square design. The inclusion of Flemingia in the diet did not change the milk yield or milk fat content but promoted a quadratic effect on the fat yield. A quadratic effect was observed on the milk protein and lactose contents, but this effect was not reflected in the daily production of these components. The concentrations of vaccenic, rumenic, elaidic and trans-10 C18:1 fatty acids in milk fat increased linearly in response to the dietary inclusion of Flemingia, whereas the contents of palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic and ?-linolenic fatty acids were not modified. A linear reduction was observed in the lauric and myristic fatty acids concentrations, which was accompanied by a reduction in the atherogenic index of milk fat. A quadratic effect was also observed on the trans-10, cis-12 CLA milk fat content in response to the inclusion of Flemingia in the diet, as well as a linear increase in the apparent transfer of ?-linolenic acid from the diet to milk. The inclusion of up to 320 g kg-1 of Flemingia hay as a replacement for Tifton-85 hay in the Saanen x Boer dairy goat diet does not modify the milk production and improves the nutritional quality of milk fat by increasing the contents of rumenic and vaccenic acids beneficial to human health and reducing the concentrations of hypercholesterolemic fatty acids.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this work was to improve the growth characteristics of Murciano-Granadina (MG) kids through terminal crossbreeding of MG goats to Boer bucks. Four experiments were carried out, using a total of 354 MG goats, half of which were mated with MG bucks (n = 12) and the other half with Boer bucks (n = 12). The kids were raised in artificial rearing until slaughter weight (9 kg). The birth weight and average daily gain were recorded in crossed kids (n = 197 and 145, respectively) and purebred kids (n = 257 and 169, respectively). Crossed kids presented significant differences (p < 0.001) compared to MG purebred kids in birth weight (+ 24%), mortality in artificial rearing (−37%), average daily gain (+32%) and milk powder conversion rate (−16%). However, the reproductive performance rates of MG goats mated with Boer bucks were slightly worse (pregnancy rate: 78.5% vs. 86.6%, p < 0.05; kidding rate: 62.0% vs. 75.7%; p < 0.01; prolificacy: 1.9 vs. 2.1 kids/parturition), especially when the matings took place in non-breeding season (experiments conducted at latitude 38–39° N). It is concluded that the terminal crossbreeding of MG goats to Boer bucks (those not used to produce replacement kids) could be an interesting option for ethical goat production.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The objective of this study was to characterize the milk yield (MY) and milk composition of relevant sheep and goat breeds raised around the world to be used with nutrition models for diet formulation and nutrient balancing. A 2-step approach was used. First, a database developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization was used to identify relevant breeds (i.e., frequently raised) by comparing the occurrence of transboundary breed names across countries. We selected transboundary breeds that occurred more than 3 times and other relevant breeds obtained from the specialized literature that had milk production information (e.g., MY, days in milk, and milk fat, protein, and lactose). The majority of sheep breeds were classified as nondairy (76%) because they lacked milk production information. Karakul and Merino accounted for up to 2.4% of sheep breeds raised around the world, whereas the other individual breeds accounted for less than 1%. In contrast, nondairy breeds of goats accounted for 46.3% and of the remaining 53.7%, Saanen, Boer, Anglo-Nubian, Toggenburg, and Alpine accounted for 6.5, 5, 4.4, 4, and 3%, respectively, of the transboundary breeds. Second, a database compiled from published studies for the selected sheep (n = 65) and goats (n = 78) breeds were analyzed using a random coefficients model (studies and treatments within studies as random effects). For sheep breeds, the average and SD were 1.1 ± 0.3 kg/d for MY, 6.9 ± 1% for milk fat, 5.4 ± 0.4% for milk protein, 5 ± 0.3% for milk lactose, 17.7 ± 1.4% for milk total solids, and 1,073 ± 91 kcal/kg of milk energy. Lacaune had the greatest MY compared to Comisana and Tsigai (1.65 versus 0.83 and 0.62 kg/d; respectively, P < 0.05), but milk components were not different among breeds. For goats breeds, the average and SD across breeds were 1.7 ± 0.6 kg/d for MY, 4.2 ± 0.9% for milk fat, 3.3 ± 0.4% for milk protein, 4.4 ± 0.4% for milk lactose, 12.7 ± 1.1% for milk total solids, and 750 ± 75 kcal/kg of milk energy. Alpine had similar MY to Saanen (2.66 versus 2.55 kg/d, respectively; P > 0.05), but greater (P < 0.05) than other breeds. The Boer breed had the greatest milk fat, protein, lactose, and total solids than several other breeds, leading to the greatest milk energy content (907 kcal/kg). Because there are many factors that can alter MY and milk composition, averages provided in this study serve as guidelines, and nutritionists must obtain observed values when using nutrition models.

Full textAbstract:
Ectoparasite Habrobracon hebetor Say is one of the most widely used biological controllers in biological plant protection against a number of harmful lepidopterans, including especially dangerous pests of corn, soy, fruit and vegetable crops. As a result of research conducted in 2017, food specialization and parasitic activity of three different populations of H.hebetor were studied. Two races have been identified for mass rearing and application: pyralid and leaf roller (against corn moth, bean pod borer, apple and plum moths), and pyralid owl-moth (against cotton moth, corn borer, bean pod borer and boxwood moth). As a result of studies of biological features and trophic needs, it has been determined that caterpillars of mill moth (Ephestia cuhniellia Zella) should be used as a host insect for laboratory cultivation of the stock population of the Habrobracon pyralid and leaf roller race (race No. 1). For the introduced from South Kazakhstan the H.hebetor pyralid and noctuid race the most productive rearing is on the caterpillars of large bee moth (Galleria mellonela L.). Optimal temperature for rearing of both races is 26-28 ° C, relative air humidity is 70% and photoperiod is not less than 16 hours. It has been noticed that before laying eggs on the host’s caterpillars, the Habrobracon female preliminarily paralyzes the victim, piercing the sheath with ovipositor. As a result, the caterpillar stops eating and is immobilized. In 3-4 days larvae hatch out of the laid on the caterpillar eggs. The larvae feed on the contents of the caterpillars for 4-5 days, then pupate and after 6-8 days an adult insect leaves the cocoon. The development of one generation lasts 13-16 days, one cocoon includes one parasite. 1,000 large bee moth caterpillars used for infection provide on average 5.8-6.0 thousand cocoons, of which an average of 4.5-4.7 thousand parasites fly out.

Full textAbstract:
The Mexican rice borer, Eoreuma loftini (Dyar), is the primary pest of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas; yet, few studies have examined its economic impact. Knowledge of the spatial patterns of the rice borer and associated damage in sugarcane would be useful in designing studies to further investigate the economic importance of this pest. We examined the respective spatial patterns of larvae, pupae, tunnels and damaged internodes using Taylor's power law for population estimates based on plots or sites within fields and based on fields. Estimates based on plots or sites featured smaller sample sizes and greater variability than estimates based on fields. Analyses based on plots or sites also indicated between-field heterogeneity in estimates of Taylor's b for small, medium and large larvae, and for pupae. Such heterogeneity was not observed for total larvae, tunnels and bored internodes. In contrast, analyses based on fields indicated that common-slopes models were appropriate for each population category. The inconsistencies between results of analyses for plots or sites compared with those for fields probably resulted from the inadequacy of population estimates derived from the smaller-sized sample units. Based on samples from fields, counts exhibited mild clumping except for medium-sized larvae (random distribution) and pupae (regular distribution). Our results indicate that counts of most population categories of the rice borer are mildly clumped and that the observed distribution pattern is sensitive to sample size.

Full textAbstract:
Suberin accumulation in mechanically wounded bark tissue was determined fluorimetrically in greenhouse-grown peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] and F2 progeny from peach × almond [P. amygdalus (Mill.) DA. Webb] hybrids. In general, suberin accumulation following wounding was significantly greater for progeny from almond-type than for peach-type hybrids. Hybrids from parents with almond tree type combined with peach fruit type accumulated the highest suberin levels. These data may partially explain the differences observed among peach and peach × almond hybrids in relative susceptibility to Leucostoma canker [Leucostoma persoonii Hohn. and L. cincta (Fr.) Hohn.] and injury caused by lesser peachtree borer. The association of higher suberin accumulation with specific phenotypic characteristics could simplify the selection of desirable seedlings in a breeding program that includes canker resistance as an objective.

The study aimed to evaluate the Boer buck sperm velocity (μm/sec) parameters (VCL: Curvilinear Velocity, VAP: Average Path Velocity and VSL: Straight line Velocity) with 5 mM Glutathione (G) and 1% or 2% Honey (H) in Skim milk (SM) based extenders preserved at refrigeration temperature for 0, 24, 48 and 72 hrs. A total of 72 ejaculates were collected equally from 6 mature bucks at the weekly interval by using Artificial Vagina (AV) as per the standard procedure. All the ejaculates were diluted using six Skim milk-based extenders, viz. SME, SMGE, SMGH(1%)E, SMGH(2%)E, SMH(1%)E and SMH(2%)E. The sperm motility was evaluated by CASA (Computer Assisted Semen Analyzer). The data obtained was statistically analyzed. The results showed that sperm velocity parameters (VCL, VAP, and VSL) differed significantly (p less than 0.05) from the extender to extender at 24, 48, and 72 hours of refrigeration. Supplementation of optimum concentration of glutathione (5 mM) and honey (1%) maintained better sperm velocity parameters up to 72 hours of storage compared to other extenders and was successful in the preservation of buck spermatozoa at refrigeration temperature. Hence, It was concluded that Boer buck semen could be preserved effectively with SMGH(1%)E at refrigeration temperature for sperm velocity parameters up to 72 hours of storage.

AbstractBacillus thuringiensisBerliner isolates were detected in 57% of 801 samples of rice grain dust, soil, rice field arthropods, and miscellaneous habitats (rice straw compost and mammal faeces) collected at 100 sites in the Philippines. The collection yielded 3950 isolates ofB. thuringiensis(8.7 isolates/positive sample). Grain dust from rice mills was the richest source (63% of the samples were positive, with 10.2 isolates/positive sample), followed by rice field arthropods, soil, and miscellaneous habitats. Polyclonal antibodies to six δ-endotoxin groups (Cry1A, Cry1B, Cry1C, Cry1D, Cry1E, and Cry3A) were used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) to characterize the toxins produced by each isolate. Subsamples of isolates representing the diversity of isolate sources and δ-endotoxin profiles were bioassayed against the yellow stem borer,Scirpophaga incertulas(Walker) and striped stem borer,Chilo suppressalis(Walker). Eighteen isolates highly toxic to both species were selected for characterization of δ-endotoxin genes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with primers specific to 14 genes or gene subfamilies, and Western blotting with Cry2A antibodies. At least two novel δ-endotoxin genes, related tocry1Bandcry1F, were detected by DNA sequencing of PCR products.

They are increasingly being recommended for use by healthcare practitioners as part of a stepped care treatment package (Bower & Gilbody, 2005). Such materials provide key information and key skills to help readers tackle mild-to-moderate depression (National Institute for Clinical Excellence, 2004). The recent review of self-help by the National Institute for Mental Health in England confirmed that it is cognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) self-help that has an evidence base rather than self-help per se (Lewis et al, 2003).

The goal was to evaluate if feeding systems with or without milk or breed groups can improve carcass characteristics, the proportion of tissues and meat tenderness of feedlot goat kids. Were used 56 animals from five different breed groups fed by experimental diet and milk according to the treatment., without milk or with 1,5 L milk/animal/day. The kid goats were slaughtered at 30 kg of live weight, and the carcass conformation and amount of fat were determined subjectively by visual assessment. Morphometric measurements and carcass and cut yields were performed. The Longissimus lumborum muscle was separated to determinate the area and subsequently it was used to evaluate the tenderness of the meat. The feeding system changes goat carcass characteristics, and goat kids fed milk until slaughter have better carcass yield and meat quality, as it anticipates the deposition of total fat, which can benefit carcass quality, given the scarcity of fat in the carcass of goats. The breed group also influences carcass characteristics. It is recommended the use of the Boer breed up to 3/4, since more than that it reduces leg yield and does not improve the compactness index and carcass conformation.

AbstrakPemberian pakan merupakan unsur yang sangat menentukan pertumbuhan, reproduksi dan kesehatan ternak, sehingga penambahan kadar protein dalam ransum akan dapat meningkatkan bobot badan ternak, salah satu usaha untuk meningkatkan kandungan protein pakan adalah dengan pemberian nutrisi pakan imbuhan berupa susu pengganti atau Calf Milk Replacer (CMR) pada cempe masa pasca sapih disamping pemberian pakan konsentrat dan hijauan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh pemberian susu pengganti terhadap peningkatan berat badan harian (PBBH). Pengamatan ini menggunakan 10 ekor cempe Boer lepas sapih yang dibagi menjadi dua kelompok perlakuan. Perlakuan pertama yaitu dengan pemberian susu pengganti dan perlakuan kedua tanpa pemberian susu pengganti. Kemudian penimbangan berat badan berkala selama satu bulan. Hasil yang didapatkan menunjukkan peningkatan berat badan harian cempe lepas sapih dengan pemberian susu pengganti yaitu sekitar 0,031 kg dan untuk cempe tanpa pemberian susu pengganti yaitu sekitar 0,03 kg. Kesimpulan yang dapat ditarik bahwa Peningkatan berat badan harian cempe lepas sapih yang diberikan susu pengganti tidak berbeda dengan yang tidak diberikan susu pengganti. Disarankan agar lebih memperhatikan komposisi dari susu pengganti.Kata kunci—susu pengganti, peningkatan berat badan harian, cempe Boer

Date pits (DP) are discarded as agricultural waste by-products and used in animals’ supplementation. Data on multi-nutrient milk analysis is still less published to understand the effects of supplementation. Therefore, this research was done to evaluate the effect of DP powder (DPP) cultivars as supplementation on milk yield and quality to lactating Saanen-Boer crossed bred goats for a 12-week trial and to analyse the parameters using chemometrics. The analyses include milk yield, crude protein, fat, lactose and total phenolic content (TPC). The goats (n=24) were grouped into 12 designated cubicles and goats fed with normal daily rations, served as control. Several doses of DPP supplementations were administered against the control. Milk yield was significantly (p < 0.05) affected by DPP cultivars and doses. Significant (p < 0.05) increase in milk yield was registered for goats fed with A20 (59.52%) and M30 (28.24%), respectively compared to control. However, the crude protein (2.71 – 4.33%), fat (2.69 – 5.55%), lactose (4.52 – 9.66 mM) and TPC (0.14 – 0.42 mg/g) of the milk were not affected (p > 0.05) by the cultivar and dose. 3D PCA of the significant highest milk yield (A20 and M30) compared to the control focusing on combination of milk yield, crude protein, fat and TPC was obviously clustered. Hence, milk quality analyses via a multi-nutrient chemometric approach could be a comprehensive method in determining milk as food for food security and sustainability.

Histologic examination was performed on uterine biopsy samples of irregular cystic masses noted during caesarean section of a 2-year-old female Boer goat. Histopathologic examination revealed multifocal erosions of the superficial epithelium and multifocal infiltration of the endometrium by widely scattered viable and degenerate neutrophils, lymphocytes, and plasma cells admixed with mild amounts of cellular debris and hemorrhage. The endometrium was markedly expanded by many irregular cystic and hyperplastic glands. This is the first case report of endometritis and cystic endometrial hyperplasia in a goat in North America.

Professional boxing carries high risk of acute traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Subdural hematoma is the most common neurological cause of boxing related mortality. Other acute TBIs in boxing include epidural hematoma, intracranial hematoma, cerebral contusions, dissection of large vessels of the neck and concussion. Concussion or mild TBI is common in a sport like boxing where every punch thrown at the head is thrown with the idea of winning by causing a knockout (KO) which is nothing but a concussive injury of the brain. After a KO, the boxer is typically given a medical suspension. The adequate duration of medical suspension after a KO has neither been determined nor standardized.

Full textAbstract:
Damage by lesser Peachtree borer (LPB) (Synanthedon pictipes Grote & Robinson) and Leucostoma canker that had accumulated during 6 (Orchard A) and 8 (Orchard B) years were compared in peach (Prunus persica L.) and peach-almond [P. amygdalus (Mill.) D. A. Webb] hybrids. Afterward, the main trunk and scaffold limbs of the trees received 10 wounds 26 mm in diameter and a subset of these trees in Orchard A had wounds inoculated with Leucostoma persoonii Hohn. Before wounding, Leucostoma canker infection and LPB infestations that had accumulated for 6 to 8 years on peach-almond hybrids was ≈60% and 98% less than on peach in Orchard A and B, respectively. One month after wounding the trees, no significant differences in Leucostoma canker infection and LPB infestations were found among the peach-almond hybrids, treated or not treated with L. persoonii, or untreated peach. Yet, Leucostoma- treated and untreated peach-almond hybrids had 33% and 25% less Leucostoma canker and LPB, respectively, when compared with Leucostoma- treated peach. Ten months after wounding, peach-almond hybrids treated with L. persoonii still had significantly less Leucostoma canker (60%) and LPB (25%) when compared with Leucostoma- treated peach. Wound gumming and wound closure rates seemed to influence the degree of LPB infestation and Leucostoma canker. Based on these data, peach-almond hybrids could be valuable sources of resistance to LPB and Leucostoma canker.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractFlight ability of Ostrinia furnacalis Guenée was evaluated using a flight-mill in laboratory. Females flew most actively at 20–23°C, whereas the majority of the moths tested did not fly at 14–17°C. Temperature above 26°C inhibited their flight activity and survival. The age-specific flight ability of unmated males and females was similar from one to 12 days after emergence; it was highest at one day and then declined gradually. Females showed a pre-oviposition period of three to four days after emergence during which they were capable of longer continuous flight. There was no significant difference between the unmated and mated females in any aspect of flight ability at four days (commencement of oviposition) or at eight days old (peak of oviposition). In males, the flight ability of mated adults was reduced compared with that of unmated adults at both four and eight days old. Increased flight experience did not delay oviposition by mated females, but significantly reduced egg production. There was a significant negative correlation between flight duration and subsequent egg production. Ostrinia furnacalis is concluded to be an active flier that is able to male long-distance flights, because both mated and unmated adults displayed high flight ability for several days after emergence.

Abstract This commercial field test was conducted in cooperation with Ed and Jim Ranck of Noble Oak Farms near Nine Points, PA, in eastern Lancaster County. A conventionally-tilled 6-acre field, which was soybeans in 1984, was planted on 30-inch centers with ‘DK587’ field corn on 19 Apr ‘85 with no soil insecticide. When corn was at the 10-12 leaf stage (38-inch extended leaf height), scouting for first generation European corn borer “shot-hole” feeding damage (20 consecutive plants in each of 8 randomly selected areas of the field) indicated that 83% of the plants were infested. Larvae were first and second costar with an average 5.6 larvae/plant, determined by dissecting the last infested plant within each 20-consecutive-plant sample and counting larvae. On 7 Jun ‘85, Lorsban 15G at 6.5 lb/acre (1.0 lb (AI)/acre) was applied using a small-plot Gandy air-spred granular applicator (compliments of Gandy Corp) pulled behind a tractor. Granules were applied directly over the whorls with 4 rows treated the length of the field (about .25 mile) and replicated 6 times. Treated strips were separated by 4-row non-treated strips. On 10-11 Jul ‘85 the effectiveness of the treatments was evaluated by dissecting 5 consecutive plants from 4 random sample sites within each treated strip and 6 non-treated strips, and counting the no. of live corn borer larvae, pupae and empty tunnels caused by borer feeding. A yield evaluation was made on 26 Sep ‘85 by commercially harvesting, with the farmers‘ 4-row combine, about 520 ft of each 4-row treated and non-treated strip near one end of the field (for ease of harvesting and weighing). Grain from each strip was weighed separately (using a weigh wagon furnished by Dekalb-Pfizer Seed Co.), and % moisture was determined with a moisture tester at the field.

<p>The increasing negative effects of climate change and the emergence of invasive species in forests around the world require the development of innovative methods to monitor and quantitatively measure the health status of woodlands. These effects are especially notable in the Mediterranean area, where the decline of stands due to recurrent droughts has increased the damage caused by secondary pests whose populations would otherwise be in balance. Remote sensing technologies allow us to work on large surfaces with reasonable precision. In particular, new spectral indices obtained from high-resolution hyperspectral and thermal images have been shown to be good predictors for the early detection of physiological changes related to diseases. In this pilot study developed in a stand of Pinus halepensis in the Comunitat Valenciana, a controlled simulation of a decay is carried out by means of sequential girdling of trees, making a subsequent field monitoring of the caused decay. Through a hyperspectral camera, the spectral information of each of these trees is analyzed in relation to their discoloration and state of observed decay. The proposed methodology allows the detection of affected trees three months before the appearance of visual symptoms, obtaining a precision higher than 0.9 with Random Forest and Support Vector Machine classifiers. The vegetation indices with better results were PRI, VGO1, VGO2, GM1 and OSAVI. This pilot study allows us to think that some of these indices can be used in the early detection of general pine wilt and, therefore, have application in the monitoring of the main threats to European forests, borer pests or quarantine organisms such as <em>Bursaphelenchus xylophilus.</em></p>
