饲粮蛋白质水平对育成期母貂生长性能、营养物质消化代谢及血清生化指标的影响

本文旨在探讨饲粮蛋白质水平对育成期母貂生长性能、营养物质消化代谢及血清中与氮代谢相关的生化指标的影响。选择健康（５０±３）日龄断奶的雌性水貂 ６０只,平均体重为（０．５７７±０．０７３）ｋｇ,随机分成 ６组,每组 １０个重复,每个重复 １只,单笼饲养。６组水貂分别饲喂蛋白质水平为 ２８％、３０％、３２％、３４％、３６％、３８％的试验饲粮。在水貂 ６５、８０、９５、１１０日龄时各进行 １次消化代谢试验,分析各日龄水貂的蛋白质消化率、脂肪消化率、氮沉积、蛋白质生物学价值、饲料转化率及体增重等指标。结果表明：５０～６５日龄,３８％蛋白质组体增重极显著高于２８％和 ３２％蛋白质组（Ｐ＜０．０１）,３８％蛋白质组饲料转化率极显著优于 ２８％和 ３２％蛋白质组（Ｐ＜０．０１）;５０～１１０日龄,３２％和 ３４％蛋白质组体增重显著高于 ２８％蛋白质组（Ｐ＜０．０５）。９５日龄时,３２％、３４％和 ３８％蛋白质组的蛋白质消化率极显著高于 ２８％和 ３０％蛋白质组（Ｐ＜０．０１）。１１０日龄时,３４％蛋白质组蛋白质生物学价值和净蛋白质利用率极显著低于其他试验组（Ｐ＜０．０１）。１１０日龄时,３８％蛋白质组尿素氮含量极显著高于其他各组（Ｐ＜０．０１）;３４％和３６％蛋白质组总氨基酸含量显著高于 ２８％蛋白质组（Ｐ＜０．０５）。综合试验中的测定指标,建议５０～６５日龄,水貂饲粮蛋白质水平为 ３６％ ～３８％;６６～８０日龄,水貂饲粮蛋白质水平为 ３４％ ～３６％;８１～１１０日龄,水貂饲粮蛋白质水平为 ３２％ ～３４％。     

Long‐term ingestion of low amylose/amylopectin ratio diet affects aspects of meat quality by changing muscle fibre characteristics in growing‐finishing pigs

Amylose plays important role in body health. It is controversial whether changing dietary amylose/amylopectin ratio (DAR) will improve meat quality in growing‐finishing pigs. A total of 48 Duroc × Landrace × Large White castrated male pigs (initial body weight 49.8 ± 2.8 kg) were randomly allotted to two treatments, and fed ad libitum either with a low DAR diet (LR, amylose/amylopectin: 12/88) or a high DAR diet (HR, amylose/amylopectin: 30/70) for 68 days. Feed intake was recorded every day, body weight was weighed at 46th and 68th day to calculate average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI) and Feed:gain ratio. Blood was collected at ?30 min (fasting 12 hr), 60, 90, 120, 180 min postprandial at 64th day and then serum was obtained by centrifugation of blood at 1,500× g at 4°C. After pigs were slaughtered, samples such as longissimus dorsi, iliopsoas and semitendinosus were collected. Density, diameter and types of muscle fibres were analysed. Results showed that ADG, ADFI, Feed:Gain ratio, cross‐sectional area of longissimus dorsi muscle, backfat thickness, colour scores were not affected by DAR. Ingestion of LR diet increased the fasting glucose (p < 0.05) and insulin (p < 0.05) concentrations in serum. The drip loss and firmness were decreased significantly in LR vs. HR animals (p < 0.05). Densities of muscle fibre in longissimus dorsi, iliopsoas and semitendinosus were greater in LR pigs (p < 0.05). Moreover, ingestion of LR diet significantly increased myosin heavy chain (MyHC) IIa mRNA level and decreased MyHC IIb gene expression in longissimus dorsi muscle (LM) (p < 0.05). Therefore, intake of diet low in amylose/amylopectin ratio induces a better meat quality (lower drip loss and lower firmness), which could attribute to smaller myofibres, a shift to slower and/or more oxidative fibres.     

Effect of semen and donor factors on multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET) in sheep

Multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET) is an important tool in the sheep industry for increasing numbers of genetically superior individuals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of semen source (frozen or fresh), the number of embryo collection procedures for each donor (NECP), the season in which embryo transfer and collection was performed, and the age and breed of the donor, on the number of recovered embryos and pregnancy rates after embryo transfer. The Alamos Genetics’ flushing station database was used. This consisted of 140 embryo collection procedures, from 53 Dorper and White Dorper sheep donors, aged between one and eight years, totalling 1,200 collected embryos. Neither the number of retrieved embryos nor the pregnancy rate was affected by the semen preservation method (fresh or frozen), NECP or the age and breed of donor. The season did not affect the number of collected embryos but had a significant effect (p < 0.05) on the recipient pregnancy rate, with higher pregnancy rates reported in the winter (65.57% ± 25.33%) compared with spring (37.11% ± 33.27%), summer (29.95% ± 28.33%) or autumn (35.03% ± 31.66%). There is an estimated increase of 98.4% and 71.5% of embryos recovered in the spring and summer seasons, respectively, when winter is used as reference. The survival of embryos is significantly higher when implanted during the breeding season, more specifically in winter. Embryo collection can be carried out throughout the year in sheep, but there may be a marginal advantage in the use of superovulation and fresh embryo transfer programmes in the autumn and winter.     

放牧季节及放牧强度对高寒草地植物多样性的影响

在海北高寒草地进行了7年轻度放牧、中度放牧和重度放牧试验,并用围栏控制放牧进行对照.试验显示,物种丰富度和均匀度在夏季牧场和冬季牧场出现不同的变化.在夏季牧场,物种丰富度随着放牧强度的增强而增强,而均匀度则随着放牧强度的增强而下降;在冬季牧场,物种丰富度和放牧之间呈现驼峰反应模式,说明植物的丰富度在中度放牧强度时达到最大.不同牧场生物多样性变化的模式说明夏季牧场放牧强度不足.

施硅对玉米水分生理特性的影响

施硅可提高根系对土壤水分的吸收能力,施硅伤流液量比对照区增加3.6%～9.4%;施硅可降低植株的蒸腾强度,减少植株水分蒸腾26.0%～39.7%,提高了植株体内水分的利用效率;施硅改变了玉米叶片细胞的形态结构,抑制了体内水分的渗透,明显改善了玉米植株体内的水分状况,为增加产量创造了良好的水分条件。
