Bioenergetics of Walleye in Lake Oahe, South Dakota
<p>The food habits, caloric density, and population dynamics of walleye Stizostedion vitreum were determined in 1993 and 1994 and combined with information on energetics and growth to determine the trophic interactions of walleyes in Lake Oahe, South Dakota. Monofilament gill nets were set at three …

Nutritional Management Strategies to Increase Energy Intake of Lactating Cows
… concentrate (F: C) first 100 d); increased caloric density from fermentable carbohydrates (CHO = 45 :55 first 100 d); or increased caloric density from fat (FAT = 50:50 first 100 d). After 100 d postpartum, all cows continued on the CON diet with F: C increasing to 60:40 after production …

A mathematical model for simulating the bioenergetics and growth of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides)
… 21%, respectively. An alternative equation for caloric density is developed and employed to improve the model's reality and accuracy.

Peripartal Lipid Metabolism and Tissue Fatty Acid Composition in Holstein Cows Fed Supplemental Fat During the Dry Period
… fat to a high-grain diet without regard for caloric density. Peripartal concentrations of total lipid and triglycerides in liver were similar among treatments. Feeding supplemental fat to dry cows had no effect on peripartal hepatic lipid accumulation or performance. Subsequently, 47 cows …

The effect of early nutrition and activity levels on the development of obesity in rats
… to study the effects of feeding two levels of caloric density factorially with two levels of activity on the growth rate and body composition of male weanling pups from 25 to 67 days of age. The effects of ad libitum feeding the dams of these pups the same two diets during gestation and …

The real deal: Willingness-to-pay and satiety expectations are greater for real foods versus their images
… in the context of real foods that have actual caloric content and afford grasping and consumption. Surprisingly, few studies have compared whether real foods are valued more than 2D images of foods, and in the studies that have, differences in the stimuli and testing conditions could have …

Dissecting the Mechanisms and the Nutritional Requirements of the Expansion of Normal and Tumorigenic Intestinal Stem Cell Lineages in Drosophila melanogaster
… CDFs with different nutrient compositions at iso-caloric density to be generated. Using this CDF recipe, we defined the individual macronutrient requirements for development, reproduction and longevity of Drosophila. Ongoing experiments are focused on determining the role of macronutrients in …
