A study was performed to investigate the effect of reseeding rates of Italian ryegrass (IRG)〔Lolium multiflorum L.〕on its nutritive value and productivity in native grasssland of Jeju region from Oct. 2011 to Jul. 2012. IRG was sown at reseeding rates (0 30, 40 and 50 kg/ha) in native grassland. When IRG was sown, there was no draught and lodging damage. Plant height in treatment 30 kg/ha of reseeding IRG was the tallest at all harvest stages (p<0.05). DM yield in treatment of 30 kg/ha of reseeding IRG was 12,790 kg/ha and increased 2.7 folds as compared to control. However, there was no significant difference among the treatments. The content of neutral detergent fiber (NDF) significantly decreased in treatment of reseeding, compared to control (p<0.05). In general, the content of NDF in second harvest stage was lower than that of control in first harvest stage. The content of acid detergent fiber (ADF) also showed simliar trend as content of NDF. The content of total digestible nutrients (TDN) in treatments of 30 kg/ha and 50 kg/ha of reseeding were approximately 45.2% each. The content of TDN in treatments of 30 kg/ha and 50kg/ha of reseeding increased as compared to 40 kg/ha and control of reseeding (p<0.05). Therefore, it is conclued that reseeding rate of IRG may improve the yield and nutritive values of IRG at 30 kg/ha.

This experiment was conducted to verify the effect of spraying ethanol extracts (green tea and wormwood) on pH, TBARS, VBN, and total microbes of chicken meat during storage. The ethanol extracts of green tea and wormwood were sprayed on the chicken carcasses (0.2 and 0.2 g extract/㎏meat, respectively). Treated sample showed higher lightness (L* values) and yellowness (b* values) and lower redness (a* values) than those of control. The TBARS values were significantly lower for the treatments than the control on storage day 4, especially, the treatment of the wormwood extracts had lowest TBARS value. The VBN values were relatively lower values for the treatments than the control on storage day 4, especially, the treatment of the wormwood extracts had lowest VBN value on storage day 6. Wormwood samples showed lower total aerobic and E. coli counts than the others on day 6. Therefore, the spray with natural wormwood extracts could be useful to extend the shelf-life by preventing lipid oxidation and reducing the microbial growth during storage of chicken meat.

The objective of the study is to assess temperament of a horse based on general temperament test by a questionnaire survey. Five test criteria were identified: gentleness, patience, aggressiveness, sensitivity, and friendliness, each on a 5-point scale. 114 horses bred at the National Institute of Animal Science (NIAS) in 2010, 2011 and 2012. The horses recorded scores of 3.6∼3.9 for gentleness, 3.1∼3.6 for patience, 3.4∼4.0 for aggressiveness, 2.8∼3.2 for sensitivity, and 3.4∼3.8 for friendliness, the overall score for sensitivity the lowest. Horses born in 2012 scored lower than the rest in all five areas at a statistically significant level (P<0.05). By gender, the colts scored higher than the fillies in all five areas, but the discrepancy was not statistically significant. Factor analysis yielded only one factor, and the Cronbach's α value was 0.980 for standardization of Factor 1, indicating a high reliability of internal consistency. The correlation coefficients among the test criteria ranged between 0.85 and 0.91 (P<0.01). The assessment criteria used in this study are expected to provide a useful basis designing a temperament test horses.

This study was carried out to investigate synthetic extender for semen cryopreservation of Jeju Native Black Bull. The semen was collected using an artificial vagina and transported to the laboratory. The semen was diluted 1:1 by Tris-Egg yolk extender and contrifuged in 1,500 rpm for 15 minutes. The supernatant was removed. The pellect was diluted to final sperm concentration of 2×108/ml by doubling in every 30 minutes at 4℃ cold chamber. The semen was equilibrated for 4 hours at cold chamber and packed to 0.5 ml straw. The semen straws were located above 5 cm for 10 minutes. The height and duration affect the freezing speed by temperature. The frozen straw was plunged to LN2. The presented straws were examined the viability and motility after thawed at 37℃ water bath. Frozen-thawed sperm were evaluated sperm viability, membrane integrity and acrosome integrity. Post-thawed sperm viability has been significantly higher (p<0.05) in fresh sperm (93.27±1.62%) than frozen-thawed sperm (73.34±3.27%). However, there were no significant differences between fresh and frozen-thawed dead cell rate (7.35±2.63 vs, 13.71±2.85). In sperm motility, between Triladyl and AndroMed Extender, there was no significant different (72.86±2.83 vs, 81.47±2.48), similarly, the dead cell rates was similar (18.41±3.42% and 17.26±4.25). The results of our study suggest that AndroMed to the freezing extender showed more positive effect on the frozen-thawed spermatozoa in Jeju Native Black bull semen.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of soybean curd residue as an ingredient of TMR on growth performance and carcass characteristics of Holstein steers. Twenty four Holstein steers of 7 months age(average body weight 274.6 kg) were randomly allocated to 3 experimental groups, which contained 8animals per group during 15-months feeding trial. The treatments composed of the group fed concentrate and rice straw separately (Control), the group fed TMR containing low levels of soybean curd (T1), the group fed TMR containing high levels of soybean curd residue (T2). Body weight and average daily gain were not significantly different among the treatment groups during the feeding trial periods. Feed intake was not differ among treatment groups, but feed conversion ratio was significantly higher in T2 group compared to T1 group during late fattening stage (p<0.05). However, it was not different in overall average. According to the yield traits, carcass weight of control, T1 and T2 were 466.4, 451.1 and 460.1 kg, respectively. Back fat thickness, rib eye area and yield index were not different among the groups. The marbling score, meat color, texture and maturity in quality traits were not different among the treatment groups, but fat color was significantly higher in T2 group compared to T1 group (p<0.05). The quality grade (1+:1:2:3, NO.) tended to be higher for T1(0:2:1:5) and T2 (0:1:4:3) compared with the control (0:0:3:5). Therefore, these results indicated that TMR with soybean curd residue may be appropriate the growth performance and carcass characteristics of Holstein steers.
