Familiarity and aggression shape long‐term associations and mortality risk in a solitary ungulate

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Periodic social interactions are important to animal fitness, even in solitary species. For solitary species, these interactions can be unexpected and shaped by previous encounters. Despite being aggressive and largely solitary, black rhinoceroses Diceros bicornis are commonly seen in groups, suggesting they may engage in more social behaviours than ...

Relationships of preweaning cow-calf characteristics to calf characteristics at selected postweaning points of evaluation

open access: yes, 1983
One hundred thirteen Angus cow-calf pairs (62 mature cows and 25 sires) were individually fed ad libitum over a five year period. Variation in cow size and production potential was comparable to that of Tennessee Agricultural Experiment Station herds ...

Neuromuscular Monitoring of Rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg in Children Aged 3–24 Months With Electromyography and Acceleromyography: An Observational Study

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Objective neuromuscular monitoring is essential to prevent residual neuromuscular block in patients receiving neuromuscular blocking agents. However, the small size of pediatric hands and the lack of appropriately sized neuromuscular equipment have made quantitative neuromuscular monitoring at the ulnar nerve (UN) difficult. In such

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Effects of Calf Age and Dam Age on Circulating BVDV II Antibody Levels Prior to Vaccination in Angus Weanling Calves

open access: yes, 2011
Newborn calves passively acquire antibodies from their dams via consumption of colostrum immediately after birth. Colostrum quality and quantity may differ by dam age affecting the amount of circulating maternally derived antibodies.

Grass species and climatic season impact on Rhipicephalus microplus temporal abundance in a tropical region

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Calf Health and Immunity.

open access: yes, 1999
End of Project ReportsSuckled calves had significantly higher serum IgG 1 concentrations than mart purchased dairy calves. The marked differences in immunoglobulin levels between suckled calves and dairy calves suggest that these calves received ...
