Effect of microbial inoculants on the fermentation characteristics,nutritive value,and in vitro digestibility of various forages

This study was aimed to examine the characteristics of three isolated lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains (HG24, M1, and TG1), and to evaluate their effects on fermentation characteristics, nutritive value, and in vitro digestibility in a variety of substrates. The experiments were conducted with Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schred.), and oat (Avena sativa L.) in laboratory silo (1 L) for ensiling 30 days. All the treated silages had significantly (p < 0.05) higher in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), and lower undesirable microorganism populations compared with controls. In Italian ryegrass and oat silages, all the inoculants improved the fermentation quality, evidenced by distinctly (p < 0.05) higher LA contents and ratios of LA to acetic acid, and lower pH, butyric acid and ammonia nitrogen contents. Strains HG24 and commercial inoculant G (Lactobacillus plantarum MTD‐1) performed better than strains M1 and TG1, indicated by obviously (p < 0.05) higher LA contents, LAB numbers, and IVDMD. In tall fescue silage, all the isolated LAB strains (HG24, M1 and TG1) markedly (p < 0.05) increased IVDMD compared with strain G. Strain HG24 is recommended as a good LAB inoculant for ensiling in various forages.

安徽省一起非洲猪瘟疫情的暴发调查

2018年9月,安徽省铜陵市某猪场暴发非洲猪瘟疫情。为查明疫情可能的来源、波及范围,继而提出有针对性的预防控制建议,对该猪场的饲养管理、猪群发病现状以及相关流行病学关联场点进行了现场调查。调查发现,此次暴发可能由饲喂泔水引起。由此建议:暂时关闭辖区内生猪屠宰场,并进行彻底消毒;停止疫情相关区域生猪及其产品调运;监测受威胁区猪场,做好生物安全防护;停止饲喂泔水,并做好餐厨剩余物的无害化处理工作。     

猪德尔塔冠状病毒纳米PCR检测方法的建立

根据Gen Bank登录的猪德尔塔冠状病毒(PDCo V)毒株M基因设计特异性引物,建立了PDCo V纳米PCR检测方法并进行了临床样品检测。结果显示:该方法对标准品检测的最低浓度可达102 copies/μL,与其他几种常见猪病病毒无交叉反应;用该方法检测国内猪场62份腹泻粪便样品,相比常规PCR方法,该纳米PCR方法的检出率更高,而两种方法对268份进境活猪粪拭子样品检测均为阴性。结果表明,本研究所建立的纳米PCR检测方法适用于国内猪场的PDCo V检测和进境活猪的监控检测,可作为PDCo V实验室检测的有力技术手段。     

河南省病死畜禽无害化集中处理体系建设实践

病死畜禽无害化处理工作事关养殖业安全、公共卫生安全和生态环境安全。河南省2013年实施病死畜禽无害化集中处理体系建设以来,已建成病死畜禽无害化集中处理场100个,日均处理能力1350t,病死畜禽收集点1990个,在政策扶持、机制创新、资金支持、执法监督等方面积累了丰富经验,创设了病死猪无害化处理与保险勘查理赔相挂钩的联动机制——“河南模式”,但也存在体系规划不合理、建设标准不高、政策不完善等问题。本文结合实际,提出制定法律法规、完善扶持政策、加强科技研发、加强宣传引导等建议,以期为深入推进病死畜禽无害化集中处理体系建设提供借鉴。     

Effects of Exogenous Glycine Betaine on the Physiological Characteristics in Medicago sativa Seedlings under Low-temperature Stress北大核心CSCD

In this study,the 'Ganong 5th' alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) was used as experimental material,and two application methods (leaf application,root application) and six exogenous betaine concentrations (0,10,20,30,40 and 50 mmol·L-1) were used to treat the seedlings of alfalfa. Plant growth and related physiological indexes were measured after 7 days of low temperature (4?) stress,and the physiological mechanism of exogenous betaine to alleviate the low temperature stress of alfalfa was explored. The results showed that exogenous GB alleviated the loss of plant height,root length,leaf dry weight,root dry weight and chlorophyll content,and increase the content of soluble sugar (SS) and free proline (Pro),and reduced the increase in leaf relative membrane permeability and MDA content. Exogenous GB increased antioxidant enzyme activities and non-enzymatic antioxidant content. And also,exogenous GB enhanced the osmotic adjustment capacity of the plant by increasing endogenous GB accumulation and BADH activity. These results indicated that exogenous GB enhanced the resistance of Medicago sativa to low-temperature stress under low temperature adjustment. The membership function analysis indicated that spraying 30 mmol·L-1 GB on the leaves and spraying 40 mmol·L-1 GB on the roots had the best effect on alleviating the low-temperature stress of alfalfa seedlings. © 2019 Ｊｏｕｒｎａｌ ｏｆ Ｒｅｆｒｉｇｅｒａｔｉｏｎ.

Influence of starch sources and dietary protein levels on intestinal functionality and intestinal mucosal amino acids catabolism in broiler chickens

Background: There is growing interest in carbohydrate and protein nutrition to enhance the efficiency of animal production. Reduced-crude protein diets depress environmental pollution and feeding cost, but the challenge to their adoption is maintaining digestive function and growth performance of birds. The present study was conducted to evaluate the influence of different dietary starch sources and protein levels on intestinal functionality and mucosal amino acid catabolism.Methods: Six dietary treatments, based on maize and soybean meal, were offered to 360 AA+male chicks from 6 to 35 d post-hatch as a 3 × 2 factorial array. Either waxy rice or amylose was added to a conventional maize-soy diet to provide three sources of starch with different digestion rates and relatively high and low dietary protein levels. Growth performance, parameters of intestinal functionality and concentrations of free amino acid in the portal circulation were determined.Results: In the grower phase, starch source influenced(P 0.02) weight gain as diets containing amylose supported significantly higher weight gains than waxy rice. Significant increase of ileal ATP concentrations and Na+/K+-ATPase activity were found in amylose treatment. Also, amylose decreased BrdU positive cell numbers and down-regulated m RNA expression for CASP-3. GOT activity in the ileum was higher(P 0.01) in birds offered low protein diets and there was a trend(P = 0.057) for waxy rice as a starch source to increase ileal GOT activities. There was a significant influence on the concentration of seventeen amino acids in the portal circulation with tryptophan the one exception. Waxy rice as a starch source generated 13.6% and 22.4% numerically higher concentrations of non-essential amino acids than maize and amylose, respectively.Conclusions: Amino acid catabolism in the gut mucosa is subject to nutritional regulation. Given that amino acids can be spared from catabolism in the gut mucosa by supplementation of amylose, it follows their post-enteral availability would be improved and intestinal energy would be derived more efficiently from glucose.

小麦品种慢叶锈抗病性的研究

1982—1984年在温室和田间对3个慢叶锈品种:中引305、中引515、中引709,2个快叶锈品种:无沙八号、纳罗的研究表明,小麦慢叶锈抗病品种具有8个抗病特性:(1)田间发病迟、普遍率增长缓慢,严重率低且发展速度慢;(2)潜伏期较长;(3)侵染频率较低;(4)夏孢子堆较小;(5)菌丝和夏孢子堆面积扩展速度慢;(6)产孢能力较弱;(7)对叶锈菌生理小种特异性不明显;(8)对产量影响不显著。慢叶锈抗病性随植株生长而增强,应用病害发展曲线下面积(AUDPC)的A值比侵染速率r值和冈珀茨方程的k值能更好地表达小麦品种的慢叶锈抗病性。利用温室测定苗期潜伏期、侵染频率和田间发病盛期旗叶的严重率指数可以作为小麦慢叶锈抗病品种的选育指标。
