Papers, 1868-1942, of the King and Orndorff families of Van Buren Furnace, Shenandoah County, Va. The collection includes papers, 1891-1942, of Early Orndorff, documents in German of a maternal ancestor, Emily Wilde, who came to America in 1877 and letters, 1882-1890, written to Frank King and his wife from G. H. Rochling and Ferd Lipfert, Annaberg, Germany. From Mss. Sm Coll Orndorff, Early Orndorff Papers, Special Collections Research Center, Swem Library, College of William and Mary
InterferĂŞncia de Brachiaria plantaginea sobre caracterĂsticas agronĂ´micas, componentes do rendimento e produtividade de grĂŁos do milho
Peso vivo final, ganho de peso, caracterĂsticas de carcaça e concentrações plasmáticas de IGF-I e hormĂ´nios tireoideanos de bezerros mestiços Angus-Nelore recebendo somatotropina bovina recombinante (rbST) atĂ© a desmama Effects of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) on production, carcass traits, and plasmatic concentrations of IGF-I and thyroid hormones on pre-weaning crossbred Angus-Nellore calves
Objetivando estudar o efeito da somatotropina bovina recombinante (rbST) sobre o desempenho, as caracterĂsticas de carcaça e as concentrações plasmáticas de IGF-I e hormĂ´nios tireoideanos, 36 bezerros mestiços ½ Angus-Nelore com idade de 63 ± 17 dias e pesando 76,8 ± 14,7 kg, criados em pastagens de Brachiaria decumbens e suplementados em creep feeding, foram submetidos a dois tratamentos atĂ© a desmama (217 dias): I) 18 bezerros receberam 1,4 mg/kg de rbST (Boostin®) a cada 14 dias; II) 18 bezerros controle receberam solução salina. As pesagens e colheitas de sangue foram realizadas a cada 28 dias e, Ă desmama, foram abatidos cinco animais de cada tratamento, para avaliação das caracterĂsticas de carcaça. Os animais tratados apresentaram maior ganho de peso mĂ©dio diário e peso vivo final, maiores concentrações plasmáticas de IGF-I e T4 que os bezerros controle. Os parâmetros peso de carcaça quente, rendimento de carcaça, pesos de traseiro e dianteiro, gordura peri-renal, peso de fĂgado, área de olho de lombo, espessura de gordura subcutânea, pesos dos mĂşsculos do quarto do traseiro e concentração plasmática de T3 nĂŁo diferiram entre os tratamentos. A utilização de rbST proporcionou aumento de 7,9% no ganho de peso vivo e alterou o perfil hormonal de bezerros suplementados em creep feeding durante a fase de cria, nĂŁo refletindo, entretanto, em maior peso ou rendimento de carcaça.<br>The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) on production, carcass traits, and plasmatic concentrations of IGF-I and thyroid hormones on crossbred Angus-Nellore male calves. Thirty-six calves averaging 63 ± 17 days old and 76.8 ± 14.7 kg of body weight (BW) grazing Brachiaria decumbens and creep fed were randomly assigned (18 calves per treatment) to one of two treatments until weaning (217 days) as follows: I) 1.4 mg of rbST (Boostin®)/kg of BW every 14 days or II) similar dosage of saline solution. Every 28 days calves were weighed and blood samples collected; at weaning, five animals from each treatment were slaughtered for carcass evaluation. The rbST-treated calves had greater average daily weight gain, final weight, and plasmatic concentrations of both IGF-I and T4 than those receiving saline solution. Weights of hot carcass, forequarter, hindquarter, hindquarter muscles, and liver as well as dressing percentage, kidney and pelvic fat, rib eye area, backfat thickness, and plasmatic concentrations of T3 were all not affected by rbST. Use of rbST increased body weight gain (7.9%) and changed the hormonal status of pre-weaning creep-fed calves compared to the use of saline solution but did not improve carcass weight or dressing percentage
