13. Performance of lactating dairy cows fed sunflower or corn silages and concentrate based on citrus pulp or ground corn
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of diets containing sunflower or corn silages and concentrate based on citrus pulp or ground corn on intake, apparent digestibility, feeding behavior, microbial protein production, and production, composition, and fatty acid profile of milk from dairy cows. Eight multiparous lactating Holstein cows (586±61 kg

14. Predatory behavior of three centipede species of the order Scolopendromorpha (Arthropoda: Myriapoda: Chilopoda)
ABSTRACT Studies related to centipede feeding and predatory behavior are rare in the literature, and are limited to observations made during fieldwork. Furthermore, they lack descriptions of prey capture. We conducted a laboratory experiment using South American specimens of Scolopendra viridicornis Newport, 1844 (n = 5), Otostigmus tibialis Brölemann, 1902

15. Interspecific hybrids between Paspalum plicatulum and P. oteroi: a key tool for forage breeding
ABSTRACT Grama-tio-pedro (Paspalum oteroi Swallen) is a rare stoloniferous grass of the Plicatula group of Paspalum, well adapted to continuous grazing in areas subject to seasonal flooding in the Pantanal region, in central western Brazil. The species is a facultative apomictic (asexual reproduction by seed) tetraploid, sporadically cultivated on Pantanal f

16. Flowering traits in tetraploid Brachiaria ruziziensis breeding
Abstract Tetraploid Brachiaria ruziziensis genotypes which reproduce sexually are essential for the breeding of other species of the Brachiaria genus which reproduce by apomixis. Aiming at studying the available phenotypic and genetic variability in the breeding population of B. ruziziensis, it was estimated the parameters heritability and genetic and phenot

17. Forage cactus associated with different fiber sources for lactating Sindhi cows: production and composition of milk and ingestive behavior
The objective of this study was to evaluate the association of forage cactus with different fiber sources (elephant grass hay - EGH; corn straw - CS, hay of cassava shoots - HCS; fresh sugarcane bagasse - FSB; and hydrolyzed sugarcane bagasse - HSB) on the milk yield and composition and the feeding behavior of lactating Sindhi cows. Five cows with average bo

18. Losses through gases and effluent and nutritional value of Brachiaria decumbens with addition of soybean hulls
The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the losses of nutrient through gases and effluents, the nutrient recovery, fermentation parameters and the chemical parameters of silages of Brachiaria decumbens with the addition of soybean hulls, testing five levels of inclusion: 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40% (as is), with five replications per treatment. After the

19. Ingestive behavior, performance and forage intake by beef heifers on tropical pasture systems
The experiment was carried out to evaluate forage intake, performance and ingestive behavior of beef heifers. Productive, structural and chemical characteristics of the pasture were also evaluated. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement, with three pasture systems (Alexandergrass [Urochloa plantaginea Link.] with

20. Supplementation of Nellore young bulls on Marandu grass pastures in the dry period of the year
The objective of this study was to evaluate performance and daytime ingestive behavior of 84 Nellore young bulls in the post-weaning phase kept on Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu pastures during the dry season. Treatments were protein mineral supplementation (1 g/kg body weight) and protein+energy mineral supplementation (3 g/kg body weight). The experiment

21. Mesquite pod meal in diets for lactating goats
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects inclusion of 0%, 33.3%, 66.7% and 100% natural matter (NM) of mesquite pod meal (MPM), in substitution of corn, on the intake, digestibility and feeding behavior of lactating Saanen goats. The forage:concentrate ratio in the diet was 40:60, using elephant grass silage as a forage source. Eight adult lac

22. CASHEW NUT MEAL USED AS FEED SUPLEMENT IN DIETS FOR LAMBS / UtilizaÃÃo do farelo de castanha de caju como suplemento alimentar em dietas de ovinos
The effects of supplementation with cashew nut meal (CNM) for sheep fed Tifton 85 (Cynodon sp.) grass hay as exclusive forage were evaluated on intake, digestibility, nitrogen balance and ingestive behavior of these animals. For this, we used twenty four male sheep, non-castrated, without defined breed and with an initial body weight (BW) of 16.2 + 3.1 kg an

23. EFEITO DE FREQUÊNCIAS DE SUPLEMENTAÇÃO NO COMPORTAMENTO INGESTIVO, PADRÃO DE DESLOCAMENTO E INGESTÃO DE MATÉRIA SECA POR NOVILHAS DE CORTE / The effects of several supplementation frequencies on ingestive behavior, displacement patterns and dry matter intake by beef heifers
The dry matter intake, ingestive behavior and displacement patterns were evaluated on beef heifers exclusively on pasture or receiving oats grain daily (frequent) or from Monday to Friday (infrequent) in "Vegetative" and "Reproductive" phenological stages of Alexandergrass (Urochloa plantaginea Link.). The grazing method was continuous with a variable number

24. Characteristics of forage and feeding behavior of Nellore heifers fed hydrolyzed sugarcane
The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical characteristics of the forage and ingestive behavior of Nellore heifers fed hydrolyzed sugarcane in different periods of storage. Twenty-four heifers with initial body weight of 119.6±8.1 kg were utilized. The experimental design was completely randomized, in which the treatments were diets with fresh
