SYMPTOMLESS TURNIP YELLOWS VIRUS INFECTION CAUSES GRAIN YIELD LOSS IN LENTIL AND FIELD PEA: A THREE-YEAR FIELD STUDY IN SOUTH-EASTERN AUSTRALIA

Symptomless turnip yellows virus infection causes grain yield loss in lentil and field pea: A three-year field study in south-eastern Australia

Turnip yellows virus (TuYV) is a damaging virus that is persistently transmitted by aphids and infects a wide range of grain hosts including lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and canola (Brassica napus L., oilseed rape).Although information is available about the effects of TuYV infection on grain yield in canola, data abo

INTAKE, DIGESTIBILITY, RUMEN METABOLISM AND GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF GOAT KIDS RAISED UNDER DIFFERENT PRODUCTION SYSTEMS

Forty-five wether goat kids (BW of 21.76 + 0.76) were randomly assigned to one of three production systems for 14 weeks to evaluate intake, digestibility and goat performance.Production systems were: 1) feedlot (FL), housed in individual pens and fed 40% protein pellets, 40% soybean hulls and 20% bermudagrass hay; 2) grazing continuously on 1 hecta
