Abstract
The current study was conducted to investigate the effects of additional valine and isoleucine in a high corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) diet on growth performance, intestinal health, and cecal microbiome in broilers. A total of 800 0-d-old male Ross 708 were allocated into 5 dietary treatments with 8 replicates. The five diet groups were as follows: 1) corn-soybean meal (SBM)-based control (CON) group; 2) 15 % DDGS (15D) group (replacing corn and SBM with 15 % DDGS); 3) 15D + additional valine and isoleucine to have the same leucine:valine and leucine:isoleucine ratios as the CON group (15DB); 4) 30 % DDGS (30D) group; and 5) 30D + additional valine and isoleucine to have the same leucine:valine and leucine:isoleucine ratios as the CON group (30DB). The reduction in growth performance, carcass weight, breast muscle, and lean weight was intensified with increasing dietary DDGS levels. The 15DB group showed similar body weight gain (BWG) and carcass weight compared to the CON group. The 30DB group showed significant differences in phylum- and family-level cecal bacterial diversities compared to the 30D group but did not create significant growth improvement. No significant differences were observed in growth performance, carcass weight, body composition, intestinal morphology, jejunal gene expression levels, and alpha and beta diversity of cecal microbiota between the 15D and 15DB, and 30D and 30DB groups. Additional valine and isoleucine did not show consistent improvements in intestinal health and growth performance in DDGS-supplemented diets. The effect of additional valine and isoleucine varied depending on how much corn and SBM was replaced with DDGS in the diet, which may have been affected by additional factors other than intestinal health. In conclusion, additional valine and isoleucine may play a role in growth and muscle deposition but not have significant impact on the intestinal health in broiler diets that replaced corn and SBM with high levels of DDGS.
期刊介绍:
First self-published in 1921, Poultry Science is an internationally renowned monthly journal, known as the authoritative source for a broad range of poultry information and high-caliber research. The journal plays a pivotal role in the dissemination of preeminent poultry-related knowledge across all disciplines. As of January 2020, Poultry Science will become an Open Access journal with no subscription charges, meaning authors who publish here can make their research immediately, permanently, and freely accessible worldwide while retaining copyright to their work. Papers submitted for publication after October 1, 2019 will be published as Open Access papers.
An international journal, Poultry Science publishes original papers, research notes, symposium papers, and reviews of basic science as applied to poultry. This authoritative source of poultry information is consistently ranked by ISI Impact Factor as one of the top 10 agriculture, dairy and animal science journals to deliver high-caliber research. Currently it is the highest-ranked (by Impact Factor and Eigenfactor) journal dedicated to publishing poultry research. Subject areas include breeding, genetics, education, production, management, environment, health, behavior, welfare, immunology, molecular biology, metabolism, nutrition, physiology, reproduction, processing, and products.
