Score: 1.00 | Title: Copper status of ewes fed increasing amounts of copper from copper sulfate or copper proteinate .
| Author: Eckert GE Greene LW Carstens GE Ramsey WS .
| Journal: J Anim . Sci . Citation: V : 77 ( 1 ) P : 244-9 Year: 1999 Type: ARTICLE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub10064051 Accession (PMID): 10064051 | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 1, subscore: 1.00 ]: The Cu status of mature , crossbred ewes fed two sources ( CuSO4 vs Cu proteinate ) and three levels ( 10 , 20 , or 30 mg/kg ) of dietary Cu was determined in a 73-d feeding trial Ewes ( n = 30 ) were fed a basal diet containing rice meal feed , cottonseed hulls , cottonseed meal , meat and bone meal , cracked corn , and vitamin-mineral supplements at 2 . 5% of BW to meet NRC requirements for protein , energy , macrominerals , and microminerals , excluding Cu . The basal diet contained 5 mg/kg Cu , 113 mg/kg Fe , . 1 mg/kg Mo , and . 17% S Copper sulfate or Cu proteinate was added to the basal diet to supply 10 , 20 , or 30 mg/kg of dietary copper in a 2x3 factorial arrangement of treatments . Ewes were housed in 3 . 7 x 9 . 1-m pens in an open-sided barn . Blood samples were collected on d 28 and 73 . Ewes were slaughtered on d 74 , and liver and other it issues were collected to determine Cu concentrations . An interaction ( P = . 08 ) occurred between source and level for liver Cu . The interaction existed due to an increase in liver Cu concentrations when ewes were fed increasing dietary Cu from CuSO4 but not when fed Cu proteinate diets . There was no source x level interaction ( P> . 10 ) for the blood constituents measured . On d 73 , plasma ceruloplasmin activity was greater ( P< . 05 ) in ewes fed Cu proteinate than in those fed CuSO4 ( 33 . 1 vs 26 . 8 microM x min ( -1 ) x L ( -1 ) ) . Increasing the concentration of dietary Cu did not affect ( P> . 10 ) plasma ceruloplasmin .

Score: 2.00 | Title: Use of urea-molasses-multinutrient block and urea-treated rice straw for improving dairy cattle productivity in Vietnam .

Citation: V : 38 ( 2-3 ) P : 187-93 Year: 1999 Type: ARTICLE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub10081798 Accession (PMID): 10081798 | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 1, subscore: 1.00 ]: After conducting a preliminary survey , a feeding trial was carried out to determine the effect of urea-molasses-multinutrient block ( UMMB ) and urea-treated rice straw ( UTRS ) as a feed supplement on the productivity of dairy cows . Sixty Holstein-Friesian crossbred cows on 11 smallholder farms were divided equally into control , UMMB and UTRS supplementation groups . Milk yield and feed intake were recorded daily . Milk fat content , body weight and body condition score ( BSC ) of each cow were determined at two week intervals . Milk samples for progesterone analysis were collected once a week commencing one month after parturition . Data were recorded for date of onset of ovarian activity , estrus , insemination , and conception rate . Milk production increased by 10 . 3-11 . 9% and milk fat content increased by 3-5% , therefore , profit for farmers increased by US $0 . 55-0 . 73 per cow per day ( exchange rate US $1 = VN $11 , 000 ) . The intervals from calving to onset of ovarian activity ( 91-94 days ) , to estrus ( 110-114 days ) , to conception ( 121-122 days ) and the calving interval ( 13 . 4-13 . 6 months ) in the trial groups were significantly shorter than those in the control group ( 112 , 135 , 152 days and 14 . 4 months , respectively .

Score: 2.00 | Title: A low-resolution structure of rice dwarf virus determined by ab initio phasing .
| Author: Naitow H Morimoto Y Mizuno H Kano H Omura T Koizumi M Tsukihara T | Journal: Acta Crystallogr .
D Biol . Crystallogr . Citation: V : 55 ( Pt 1 ) P : 77-84 Year: 1999 Type: ARTICLE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub10089397 Accession (PMID): 10089397 | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 6, subscore: 2.00 ]: Rice dwarf virus crystals belong to space group I222 with cell parameters a = 770 ( 2 ) , b = 795 ( 5 ) , c = 814 ( 5 ) A and alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees . The unit cell of the crystal contains two viruses at the origin and body-centred positions . Using data synthesized from a rice dwarf virus model crystal in the space group I222 , the possibility of ab initio phasing was thoroughly examined . The centric nature of the initial phases was unexpectedly broken by extensive iteration of the non-crystallographic symmetry averaging . The structure of rice dwarf virus was then solved with ab initio phasing up to 20 A resolution . The triangulation number determined by the present study is T = 13 , which is different from the triangulation number , T = 9 , previously determined by electron microscopy [ Uyeda & Shikata ( 1982 ) . Ann . Phytopathol . Soc . Jpn , 48 , 295-300 ] .

Pusa Basmati 1 . The mean absorbance , as assessed by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride reduction , of rice cells at 8 d post-thawing , was increased by up to 60% ( P < 0 . 05 ) , compared to cells recovered in the absence of Hb . Erythrogen ( 1 : 50-1 : 500 v : v ) promoted an increase in biomass , of up to 25% over control ( P < 0 . 05 ) , at 24 d post-thawing . Cell suspensions , re-established by transfer to liquid medium of cells initially thawed and cultured with Erythrogen for 24 d , exhibited increased ( up to 2-fold ) growth rates over a subsequent 20-d period , compared to cells recovered without Hb .
