• Effect of grazing muzzles on grazing miniature horse behavior and physiological stress 

  Davis, Kristina (2019)

  Grazing muzzles are highly effective at reducing forage intake in horses and are a popular tool to control horse weight. However, grazing muzzle design may cause horses stress. The objective of these studies was to determine ...

• COMMUNITY STRUCTURES OF GUT MICROBIOME UNDER DIFFERENT DIETS IN ANGUS BEEF CATTLE 

  Liu, Jianan (2019)

  The microbiota of animals’ digestive tract plays important roles in health, nutrient utilization, and performance. For ruminants, the digestive tract, including rumen and other gastro-intestinal regions, hosts a unique and ...

• MODULATING KEY GENES INVOLVED IN PANCREAS FORMATION AND INSULIN SIGNALING USING CRISPR/CAS9 IN THE PIG 

  Sheets, Timothy P (2019)

  Among the metabolic diseases, diabetes remains a “pressing problem” as recognized by World Health Organization, not only due to the impact on individuals’ lives, but also because of the rapid increase in newly diagnosed ...

• SUPPLEMENTAL CHOLINE AND METHIONINE FOR DAIRY CATTLE: EFFECTS ON PERFORMANCE, LIVER FAT CONTENT AND GENE EXPRESSION, AND PLASMA AMINO ACID AND CHOLINE METABOLITE CONCENTRATIONS 

  Potts, Sarah B (2019)

  The objectives of this dissertation were to 1) determine markers of post-ruminal choline supply so that bioavailability of rumen-protected choline (RPC) sources can be calculated in lactating cows and 2) investigate the ...

• EVALUATION OF A METHOD TO MEASURE VOLATILE FATTY ACIDS AND GASES IN VITRO WITH MATHEMATICAL MODELING 

  Judd, Latisha Marquita (2018)

  Methane emissions from ruminants have become an issue over the last 50 years. Previous research has shown that methane emissions are stoichiometrically linked with volatile fatty acid (VFA) profiles in ruminant animals. ...
