The objective of this study was to evaluate the yield and nutritional value silage made from corn intercropped with marandu palisadegrass (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu) in an integrated crop-livestock system. harvested at different maturity stages cutting heights processed or not before ensiling. experimental design a randomized block four replications 2x2x2+1 factorial scheme. treatments were composed two (20 45 cm) (1/4 kernel milk line physiological maturity) subjected methods...
Intracellular amino acids (AA) regulate milk protein synthesis within the mammary glands by modifying plasma flow (MPF) and AA transporter activity. Amino acid transporters catalyze translocation using Na+-gradient, substrate gradient (uniporters), exchange mechanisms; further, they exhibit specificity for individual or groups of with similar side-chain properties each transport system. Non-essential are actively transported through Na+-dependent and, thus, often utilized as intracellular...
We evaluated blood parameters of Angus and Nellore bulls fed diets with without forage. Forty animals initial body weight (BW) 380±16.2 kg were housed in individual stalls. Eight each breed a whole shelled corn (WSC) diet [850 g kg−1 WCS 150 pellet based on soybean meal, dry mater (DM) basis] or ground silage (GC) (300 700 concentrate DM basis), ad libitum, four limited-fed the GC [feed restriction (FR), 55% intake adjusted for metabolic BW]. Intake was measured daily, metabolism trial...
