Abstract:
This study was aimed for selection of Black Bengal bucks based on their fertility and the performance of their progeny in field condition. Data on buck were collected from a nucleus breeding flock and on progeny at field level. The traits considered were birth weight, weight at every 3-m interval up to 12 m of age. Average daily gain (g/day) on 90 progeny produced from 10 bucks and semen parameters on these bucks were collected. Heritability estimates obtained for birth weight, 3, 6, 9 and 12-m weights and average daily gain of progeny were found to be 0.41±0.08, 0.49±0.07, 0.46±0.08, 0.48±0.28, 0.50±0.09 and 0.49±0.06, respectively. The high heritability estimates of body weights indicated that there is a good opportunity for genetic improvement of this trait in a selection scheme. Heritability estimates obtained for semen volume, sperm concentration, sperm motility, sperm livability and normal sperm were 0.11±0.04, 0.25±0.07, 0.13±0.08, 0.12±0.08 and 0.06±0.03, respectively. The highest non return rate was observed in bucks of 32, 52 and 57 (66.67±6.75%). The lowest was found in buck 48 (41.67±5.65%). Among 10 bucks, first 3 top buck IDs were 52, 57 and 54 on the basis of BV at birth weight. Selection index of bucks for all traits was calculated and bucks were ranked accordingly. The highest selection index of three bucks ID were 52, 7 and 4 (1009.39, 934.595 and 865.808, respectively). It can be concluded that these top ranking three bucks can be selected and conserved for production and preservation of frozen semen for long term use.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjas.v43i1.19379 Bang.

Abstract:
AbstractCastration of fallow deer (Dama dama) at 7 months of age resulted in a depressed growth rate to slaughter at 20 months of age, compared with entire bucks. The castrated bucks were significantly lighter at 15 and 20 months of age respectively (P < 0·001). The mean carcass weight of castrated bucks was 6·2 kg lighter and their dressing proportion 0·07 lower than entire bucks. The potential loss of income per carcass is equivalent to A$27·00 per castrated buck at 1984 prices, with a further potential loss of A$30·00 per head from velvet antler production prior to slaughter, if this is deferred until 2 years of age. It is suggested that the only advantage that castrated bucks would have over dean tiered entire bucks occurs during the rutting period of 3 to 6 weeks from early April, when entire bucks are extremely aggressive, and difficult to confine and transport without risk of injury and bruising of carcasses.

Abstract:
This study was conducted to assess the quality and quantity aspects of different genetic group of buck’s semen used for Artificial Insemination (AI) at National Livestock Breeding Centre (NLBC), Pokhara. For this, records from different breeds and genetic groups of buck semen collected over 3 years (2014-2016) were analyzed. Parameters such as volume, density, mass motility, initial motility concentration and post thaw motility were analysed for various non-genetic factors like year, season, green based feeding. Data were analyzed by least square method using Harvey 1990 software package. The result showed that different genetic group of bucks (P<0.001) have highly significant effect (P=0.00) on volume of semen. Significant interaction (P=0.01, 0.001) was observed between year and season on volume and density of the semen. Similarly, different genetic group of bucks had significant effect on density (P=0.03). Year showed a significant effect (P=0.02) on initial motility of the buck semen. Similarly, significant interaction between year and season on initial motility percentage (P=0.01) and post thaw motility percentage (P=0.00) was found. Likewise, year has a significant effect (P=0.01) on the Post thaw motility percentage (P=0.03) of the semen. Also, a significant effect of different breed of buck was found on post thaw motility percentage (P=0.00). In addition, the average post thaw motility percentage semen of all the genetic groups of bucks was above 52% which is considered as a good percentage for the success of AI. This result might be due to use of egg yolk free extender which is soya-based protein. Moreover, adoption of new buck semen processing technologies might further improve the semen quality and long term storability along with better management and distribution of these buck semen by Government of Nepal through livestock unit at different municipalities will improve the conception rate and save huge effort and investment for the importation of buck semen.

Abstract:
A study was conducted to evaluate the percentage yield (%), proximate composition and organoleptic evaluation of the freshly prepared Suya product from indigenous goat (buck) breeds in Nigeria .Thigh muscle with average weights of 3.1±0.2 kg was excised from the carcasses of 9 fully matured bucks managed intensively for 90 days. The Chevon were dissected into smaller pieces of 10 cm long. The meat samples were thereafter trimmed of visible fats. They were also finely trimmed to very thin sheets of meat about 0.22 - 0.32 mm in thickness and with a length of about 4.5 cm - 9.3 cm. A total of 99 Suya sticks was prepared with 11 from each buck weighing approximately 88.50 g per stick. Suya ingredients used for the experiment were sourced from Bodija Market, Ibadan. The results showed that weight losses were considerable in all the treatments but the yield was not significantly different (P>0.05) among the breeds. There was also no significant difference in moisture contents among the treatment groups while the protein, ether extract and crude fibre differed significantly across the treatments. Texture of Suya from Sahel bucks with 6.81±0.3 was significantly higher than 5.4±0.3 and 5.5±0.4 for WAD and Red Sokoto bucks respectively. The overall acceptability of Suya from Sahel bucks with 6.24 and Red Sokoto bucks with (6.9±0.1) were similar and most accepted than 5.10 of that from West African dwarf bucks.

Abstract:
We examined how strongly any change in rank of a male fallow deer (Dama dama) during antler growth affected the pattern of development of his antlers. Rank was determined from victories in fights with other bucks and summarized as "dominance success," recorded at specific, well-defined stages of antler growth. We tested whether the size attained by various parts of the antler is more closely related to dominance success of the buck during their development than to average success over the whole velvet period. To test this hypothesis, 10 fallow deer bucks aged 4 years were observed throughout the velvet period. After the velvet was shed, the antlers were measured. Most of the measured characteristics of the antlers reflected dominance success during the time that they were developing rather than the average rank over the whole period of antler growth. Thus, changes in behaviour related to rank modified antler growth. Bucks gaining higher rank through fighting more bucks exhibited enhanced growth of that part of the antler that was just developing. This changed if the buck lost his position.

Abstract:
The ovulation can be induced by the introduction of a male among a group of anovulatory goats, a phenomenon called the ‘male effect’. The objective of this study was to determine whether maintaining bucks over 35 days after the initial introduction of males, improves pregnancy rate in goats. We used sexually active bucks, which were joined (n = 2 each) with three groups of goats (n = 30 each): (i) males remained with females for 15 days (Control group); (ii) males remained with females for 35 days (same buck group); (iii) males were removed at Day 23 and replaced by other males, which were not familiar to the females and which remained with females until Day 35 (new buck group). Percentage of goats ovulating did not differ among groups at Day 19 (≥87%; P = 0.12). Pregnancy rates at Day 35 did not differ between groups (≥70%; P = 0.90). At Day 55, pregnancy rates were similar in the same and new buck groups (96%; P = 1.0), but were higher than that of the Control group (73%; P < 0.05). Therefore, maintaining bucks over 35 days after the onset of the male effect improved pregnancy rate more than 20 points compared with females that remained with the same bucks for 15 days only.

Abstract:
Evidence is presented which suggests the transmission by bucks which have recovered from myxomatosis of a factor which confers on their offspring a non-genetic survival advantage against myxomatosis. This factor appears to be transmitted also to the offspring of does which have previously been mated to recovered bucks and then to non-recovered bucks. This advantage was greatest where a buck and his offspring had been exposed to the same virus strain. Fibroma immunization of bucks appears to remove this factor. It is suggested that much of the observed resistance in rabbit populations may be due to this non-genetic factor rather than to genetic resistance, and that resistance, at least in a domestic population selected for resistance, rose quickly initially and then very slowly.

Abstract:
Abstract Resistance to internal parasites (IP) is important in the sustainability of a meat goat enterprise. Langston University (LU) and the American Kiko Goat Association conducted a SecondGeneration Buck Performance Test in 2019. The performance test measured fecal egg count (FEC) and packed-cell volume (PCV) in a natural challenge of 6 wk on pasture (PAS) and in an artificial challenge in dry-lot confinement (CON). Seventy-seven Kiko bucks less than 1 yr of age completed both PAS and CON. The PAS was conducted on a 23-ha pasture with native grasses and forbs. Bucks were supplemented at 0.5% BW (25.8±0.18 kg) daily to facilitate visual inspection of animals. CON was conducted at LU’s testing facility. Bucks were sampled every 2 wk in PAS. In CON, bucks were sampled on d 29, 34, and 38 following an artificial challenge with each buck receiving 7,000 L3 Haemonchus contortus larvae. Average FEC and PCV for each buck for PAS and CON were analyzed. The correlation between FEC-PAS and PCV-PAS was -0.283 (P &lt; 0.05), which is almost identical to the correlation between FEC-CON and PCV-CON (r=-0.280, P &lt; 0.05). The Spearman rank correlation between FEC-PAS and FEC-CON was 0.069 (P &gt; 0.50). However, the Spearman rank correlation between PCV-PAS and PCV-CON was 0.376 (P &lt; 0.01). Using mixed model methods, the means for FEC-CON and FEC-PAS were similar (1,428 vs 1,698±169 epg for CON and PAS, respectively). However, PCV were different (P &lt; 0.01), with 28.3 vs. 20.7±0.34 for CON and PAS, respectively. Pasture PCV was a predictor of PCV in confinement and vice versa; however, that was not true for FEC, indicating that FEC in PAS and in CON may be two separate traits. Future buck performance tests should incorporate pasture and confinement phases to more precisely identify superior bucks for IP resistance.

Abstract:
The experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of heat stress on adaptability and semen quality of buck. Almost similar 10 Black Bengal bucks were selected for the study at Artificial Insemination Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Bangladesh. Prerequisite biological data were collected from each animal before keeping them sun heat and after 1 hour sun exposure. Different semen characteristics of each animal were measured. Temperature humidity index (THI) was 19.95 in the morning which indicate all the animals were in absence of heat stress and THI was 25.54 in the noon which indicate all the animals were in severe heat stress at noon. Buck 1 and buck 5 were more heat resistant (p<0.01), because their thermolysis capacity (TC) values were less than the others. There were no differences in tunica dartos index and semen characteristics among different bucks (p>0.05). Positive correlation between sperm motility and testis length (p<0.05), and negative correlation between sperm concentration and scrotal skin temperature (p<0.05) were found. From the study it can be concluded that all the bucks were in severe heat stress at noon time and TC can be used as an indicator for selection of buck for heat tolerance.J. Environ.

Abstract:
During the dry season, forages are low in quantity and quality; hence lacks the essential nutrients that are prerequisite for growth in ruminants, suggesting a supplemental feeding. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the dry matter intake, nutrient digestibility and nitrogen balance in growing Red Sokoto bucks fed Sorghum bicolor hay supplemented with concentrate. Eight growing Red Sokoto bucks with average body weight of 15±1.0 kg were randomly allotted to two dietary treatments containing S. bicolor hay/concentrate mixture (100:0 and 60:40). The bucks were individually fed at 3.5% body weight daily for a period of 21 days in a completely randomised design with four replicates per treatment. The parameters measured were dry matter intake, water intake, amount of faeces voided, volume of urine and costs of feeding. Total dry matter intake (424.64g/day) was significantly (p<0.05) higher in 60:40 dietary treatment than 100:0 treatment (353.57g/day). The digestibility coefficients of crude fibre (92.34 %), acid detergent fibre (71.46 %) and neutral detergent fibre (69.77 %) were significantly (p<0.05) higher in Red Sokoto bucks fed Sorghum bicolor hay:concentrate ratio of 100:0 compared to bucks fed 60:40 diet with crude fibre (87.25 %), acid detergent fibre (59.67 %) and neutral detergent fibre (60.08 %) digestibility coefficient values. However, crude protein (78.49 %) and ash (70.04 %) digestibility coefficients in bucks fed 60:40 diet were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those fed 100:0 diet with 38.14 % crude protein and 21.45 % ash digestibility coefficients. There was an increasing trend (p<0.05) in all parameters measured when concentrate was supplemented. The nitrogen retained (7.55 g/day), nitrogen retained as % intake (68.76 %) and nitrogen absorbed as % intake (78.46 %) were significantly (p<0.05) higher in Red Sokoto bucks fed 60:40 diets when compared with that of 100:0 diet which recorded 0.69 g/day nitrogen retained, 23.87 % nitrogen retained as % intake and 38.15 % as nitrogen absorbed as % intake, respectively. Total costs per kg of feed (N78.13K) and costs of feeding per buck (N696.72K) were significantly (p<0.05) higher for 60:40 diet than 100:0 diet with N45.83K total costs per kg feed and N340.29K costs of feeding per buck. It is therefore, concluded that concentrate supplementation on Sorghum bicolor hay enhances its utilisation by growing Red Sokoto bucks in terms of increased dry matter intake, nutrient digestibility and nitrogen retention in Northern Guinea Savannah of Nigeria.

Abstract:
Reproduction potential of farm animals is mainly determined by selection of appropriate strategies that benefit the reproductive performance. The aims of the study were first to evaluate the effect of selenium (Se) supplementation on attainment of puberty and reproductive performance of Saanen bucks and secondly, to evaluate the effect of selenium supplementation on semen yield and quality of Saanen bucks following two semen collection methods and induced stress. The study consisted of three experiments. For experiment 1, goats were allocated into two treatment groups: treatment and control. The treatment group were dosed with sodium selenite at three months interval. In experiment 2, the two groups from experiment one were further subdivided into two groups each based on semen collection method (artificial vagina - AV or electro ejaculator - EE) leading to four groups (Se + AV, Se +EE, Control + AV, Control + EE). For experiment 3, the major two groups (selenium supplemented and control) were subdivided into two groups each based on induced stress (injected with adrenocorticotropic hormone -ACTH) and not, leading to four groups (Se, Se + ACTH, ACTH and control). For the last two experiments, selenium supplementation was done at two months interval. ACTH was administered at three weeks interval. The phenotypic parameters were evaluated every two weeks. For all experiments semen was collected bi-weekly from bucks and evaluated for volume, colour, sperm motility, concentration, viability and morphology. Blood samples were collected at two weeks interval to determine selenium concentration and reproductive hormones. Data collected was analysed using GLM procedures of SAS (2012) and the means were separated by Duncan test. Supplementation with selenium significantly (P < 0.05) improved body weight, testicular measurements and decreased age at puberty. Selenium supplementation led to significantly (P < 0.05) greater ejaculate volume, semen colour and pH, high sperm motility, concentration and viability in the present study. There were lower (P < 0.05) percentages of morphological abnormal sperm from the selenium supplemented bucks than the control. There were also a lower percentage of primary sperm abnormalities from the selenium treated group, compared to the control. The electro-ejaculator method of semen collection had a greater ejaculate volume regardless of the selenium supplementation. The interaction of selenium supplementation and electro-ejaculator method of semen collection showed that when bucks are supplemented with selenium, the electro-ejaculator technique lead to a creamy semen appearance. The electro-ejaculator technique had an advantage of leading to a lower percentage of tertiary sperm abnormalities. Selenium supplementation also reduced the detrimental effects of stress on semen characteristics. Supplementation with selenium lessened the effects of induced stress, improved luteinising hormone and testosterone concentrations. Selenium supplementation enhanced serum blood glutathione peroxidase activity and lowered cortisol level in bucks. The results of the present study confirmed that male goat kids supplemented with selenium attain puberty with enhanced pubertal characteristics. It was observed that if selenium is supplemented and semen is collected frequently, both the electro-ejaculator and artificial vagina semen collection methods yield acceptable semen parameters and, consequently lead to improved semen quality of Saanen bucks.

Organizations face increasing pressure to improve internal conflict management, which has led to experimentation with different types of dispute resolution components. These include: Rights-based processes, in which third-parties determine the outcome of a dispute based on laws, contracts or standards of behavior; Interest-based neutrals, who manage the dispute resolution process and leave decision-making authority to the parties themselves; and Negotiations, which include all efforts by individual disputants to resolve conflicts themselves. Anecdotal evidence suggests that systems combining all three types of dispute resolution components are more effective than any of the individual or pairs of components. To date, however, there is no theoretical explanation or rigorous empirical evidence to justify the regular implementation of full dispute resolution systems by organizational leaders. In this dissertation I present and test two competing theoretical models to explain the benefits of dispute resolution systems over pairs and individual components. The first is an additive model, in which the more types of components that are available, the more types of disputes that can be managed. The second model is a complementarities model, in which none of the components can operate effectively without reinforcement from the other types of components. Thus, performance benefits accrue only when a full system is implemented.
(cont.) I test these competing models in a multi-method quasi-experimental and two supplemental before-and-after field studies. I consistently find evidence contradicting the additive model, and suggestive evidence supporting the complementarities model. The effects of exposing employees to a three-component dispute resolution system are: 1) more positive attitudes towards workplace conflict, 2) less conflict avoidance, 3) more conflict negotiation, and 4) more conflict resolution. When employees are exposed to a two-component system, however, only negotiation behaviors increase. All other outcomes were either non-significant or in the opposite-to-expected direction. Although this study is not conclusive evidence of the complementarities model, the data clearly reject the additive one. This study implies that practitioners should focus on introducing full systems to organizations instead of taking an incremental approach to changing dispute resolution behaviors.

Abstract:

The growth of any community is marked many times over by the coming of progress which may be regarded either with promise or as a threat. The history of Doylestown records the arrival of train travel as an event.

It would be a remarkable change that could put a small town on the map by opening doors of travel and communication in the heart of rural farmland. The tracks entered the town from the southwest and ended a few blocks downhill from the original crossing of Main and State Streets at its center. The rail line would now be the demarcation between town and country - an edge. A passenger station was built as were an array of light industrial and farm trade buildings, splayed out in rows along the lengths of track. The empty lots between center and edge became a weave of streets lined with town houses constructed to acknowledge the train with large front porches open wide welcoming the arrival of both the familiar and the stranger.

The ebb and flow of pedestrians descending and ascending from town to train and train to town became the daily ritual established by such progress. It is in this routine and the willing communication between buildings that lay a complimentary existence defining the character of a neighborhood.

It is a further part of progress that centers of activity with their subsequent community of buildings become obsolete. Yet from obsolescence may be found rebirth, and the rail yard was no exception. Commerce waned and then shifted from industrial and agrarian means to service oriented trade with each vacant structure quietly resurrected under adaptive re-use. The commuter line still operates though continually threatened with closure. A truth made evident by the perpetually locked doors of the station. The only activity that has a direct connection to the rail yard's past is the ritual of the commuting passengers. Pedestrian traffic into town still beats its daily walk up the stairs and sidewalks along the same streets. The numbers are now supplemented though by a stream of vehicles as evidenced by the number of parking spaces fit neatly into the available open nooks of the old freight house. Despite these progressive changes what is of greatest significance is that none has occurred to the detriment of the fabric of the existing neighborhood. It remains a distinctly vibrant edge only because new activities were necessary in offering new opportunities and a feeling of continuum. The site for the archive therefore lies at this edge of town.

This thesis tells the previously untold story of how environmental activists in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in the 1980s waged a nearly decade-long and ultimately losing battle against a plan to pump water from the free-flowing Delaware River. As a case study of grassroots community activism during the presidential administration of Ronald Reagan, the struggle known locally as “Dump the Pump” and spearheaded by a nonprofit organization called Del-AWARE supports and provides a regional take on recent scholarship that has illuminated the vibrant underlying dynamics of local civic engagement occurring amid the overshadowing political conservatism of the Reagan years. Also a case study in public history, this thesis demonstrates how collective historical memory fueled not only Del-AWARE’s protracted struggle, but its enduring legacy in public policy and community life. It concludes with suggestions for preserving the history of Del-AWARE before it is lost forever.

Abstract:
Appraising vehicle package design concepts using seating bucks — physical prototypes representing vehicle package, is an integral part of the vehicle package design process. Building such bucks is costly and may impose substantial burden on the vehicle design cycle time. Further, static seating bucks lack the flexibility to accommodate design iterations during the gradual progression of a vehicle program. A “Computer controlled seating buck”, as described in this paper, is a quick and inexpensive alternative to the traditional seating bucks with the desired degree of fidelity. It is particularly useful to perform package and ergonomic studies in the early stages of a vehicle program, long before the data is available to build a traditional seating buck. Such a seating buck has been developed to accommodate Ford vehicle package design needs. This paper presents the functional requirements, the high level conceptual design of how these requirements are realized, and the methods to verify, improve and sustain the dimensional accuracy and capability of the new computer controlled seating buck.

Abstract:
In partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Oregon State University, the National Park Service has been collecting continuous acoustic recordings at a stationary autonomous recorder in Buck Island Reef National Monument since 2016. The audio data were previously analyzed to establish baseline soundscape conditions as well as monitor the acoustic presence of vessels and humpback whales. This report specifically investigates potential changes to the soundscape environment during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent “anthro-pause” when human activities such as tourism and commercial shipping were interrupted by public health guidance. Although major declines of anthropogenic activities were observed in other regions of the world, soundscape conditions in Buck Island Reef National Monument were only minimally impacted during early 2020. Furthermore, in latter months of 2020 and into 2021, vessel movement and related noise levels slightly increased from historic levels. Humpback whale vocalizations were also analyzed for seasonal presence in Buck Island Reef National Monument, revealing a consistent pattern with previously analyzed seasons. Ongoing passive acoustic soundscape monitoring will provide data that can be used to evaluate continued impacts of anthropogenic activity in and near Buck Island Reef National Monument.
