Abstract Aerobic stability is an important feature in the evaluation of silages. The aims were to investigate chemical and microbiological changes that occur sugar‐cane ( S accharum spp.) silage after aerobic exposure, identify major species yeasts associated with deterioration process select lactic acid bacteria LAB ) strains can improve this silage. Fourteen wild belonging L actobacillus plantarum , . brevis hilgardii evaluated using experimental silos. Silage samples collected at 0, 96...
Ultrasonography has been increasingly used in aquaculture breeding programs for non-invasive determination of sex and the gonad maturation stage fish. For first time, this image exam was performed on a mugilid (Lebranche mullet). Nineteen male 12 female fish were submitted to evaluation, which selected because they identified be final stage, previously confirmed through spermiation by abdominal pressure ovarian sampling biopsy (oocytes 626 ± μm), respectively. The ultrasound images obtained...
Resumo No Brasil, a tainha Lebranche é espécie Mugilidae mais importante para indústria pesqueira. Contudo, recentemente foi recomendada classificação como quase ameaçada. Neste sentido, aquicultura surge uma ferramenta poderosa conservação e desenvolvimento dos recursos naturais. O presente estudo avaliou influência de diferentes temperaturas durante larvicultura Mugil liza seus efeitos tardios no gonadal na quantificação hormonal após 24 meses. Inicialmente, os ovos fecundados (45 L-1)...
Abstract In Brazil, the Lebranche mullet is most important Mugilidae species for fishing industry. However, recently, has been recommended classification as near threatened. this sense, aquaculture emerged a powerful tool natural resource conservation and development. The present study evaluated influence of different temperatures during Mugil liza larviculture their late effects on gonadal development hormonal quantification after 24 months. fertilized eggs (45 L-1) were initially kept in...
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate whether fermentation end products in silage affect intake and digestion beef cattle. Six rumen-cannulated Nellore steers randomly assigned a replicated 3 × Latin square design with 14-d periods. Each period consisted of 9 d for adaptation 5 sample collection. Steers housed tie-stall barn individually fed once daily at 0800 h. The dietary treatments Exp. 1 as follows: 60% corn plus 40% concentrate (CON), added ethanol (2.8% on DM basis) (ET), lactic...
Abstract The objectives of this study were to determine the range neutral detergent fibre ( NDF ) digestibility across sugarcane varieties and predict dry‐matter DM based on morphological chemical composition. Whole plants thirty‐two commercial collected after 12 months regrowth (second cut) evaluated for traits, composition, in situ NDFD DMD ), vitro IVNDFD gas production dynamics from isolated . content ranged 404 547 g kg −1 , was between 593 739 varied 270 363 Cluster discriminant...
Abstract The objectives of this study were to determine the proportion indigestible neutral detergent fibre ( iNDF ) in (NDF) fraction sugarcane, estimate changes NDF digestibility (NDFD) during harvesting window and predict sugarcane based on its fractions. Whole plants IAC86‐2480 IAC93‐3046 varieties collected windows 2007 2009, respectively. vitro true dry matter (IVTDMD) contents (NDF, , acid fibre) determined by near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS). NDFD potentially digestible...
This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with citral on growth performance and intestinal parameters, specific activity digestive enzymes Sardinella brasiliensis. 240 juvenile S. brasiliensis were randomly distributed in a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) composed 12 circular tanks 150 L (n = 20 per tank). A diet without addition (control) three diets containing different levels inclusion (0.5, 1.0 2.0 mL kg*feed–1) used fish feeding management during days. The...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect replacing grain sorghum (GS) with palm kernel cake (PKC) on performance, carcass traits and meat quality feedlot steers fed highgrain diets. Forty male ½ Holstein × Nellore an initial weight 331.1 ± 36.2 kg, at 24 2 months age, were housed in group stalls (10 cattle/stall) where they received diets containing 0, 80, 160, or 240 g/kg PKC a dietary dry matter basis. After 126 days, animals slaughtered their evaluated. replacement GS did...
The Lebranche mullet Mugil liza is a marine fish of great importance for artisanal and industrial fishing, as well aquaculture. use live feeds during the larviculture phase significant component production costs. present study evaluated effects feeding transition on different larval stages M. liza, from combined supply feed (Brachionus rotundiformis + Artemia franciscana) inert (Artemia franciscana diet) until weaning to only diet. A total 3240 larvae (weight 0.0133 ± 0.0062 g length 0.793...
