This experiment was conducted to study the effects of arginine supplementation on organ development, egg quality, blood parameters, and immune status laying hens. A total 360 25-week-old brown Leghorn hens were randomly divided into three groups with six replicates 20 birds each fed diets supplemented 0, 8.5, or 17 mg L-arginine/kg for 42 days. Results showed that weight proventriculus duodenum in treatment mg/kg L-arginine heavier than 0 (p<0.05). The oviduct treatments smaller 8.5...
A dose-response experiment with four dietary copper concentrations (4.17, 8.17, 12.17 and 16.17 mg/kg) was conducted to estimate the growth performance, slaughter nutrient content of fecal liver growing Goslings from 28 70 d age. Two hundred healthy male Yangzhou geese similar body weight were randomized groups five replicates per treatment ten replicate. Average daily feed intake, average gain conversion ratio for each pen measured At age, two selected randomly slaughtered evaluate carcass...
The tiller angle, which is an important agronomic trait, determines plant architecture and greatly influences the grain yield of rice. In this study, a population chromosome segment substitution lines derived from cross between japonica variety with compact architecture—Koshihikari—and indica spread-out architecture—Nona Bokra—was used to investigate genetic basis angle. Five quantitative trait loci (qTA1, qTA5, qTA9-1, qTA9-2, qTA11) for angle were detected on chromosomes 1, 5, 9, 11 in two...
We assessed the effect of health sand dietary supplementation with methionine (Met) on White King pigeons. Paired pigeons (n = 180) were fed one five diets; group T1 received no added Met, while T2, T3, T4 and T5 30, 60, 90 120 g supplemental DL-Met/kg, respectively. Each treatment was replicated three times 24 pairs in each replicate. The results showed that supplementary Met had a minor length fourth primary wing feather 28-day-old squabs (p>0.05), but 14-day-old T2 significantly longer...
