Nutrient utilization, body condition and carcass traits of cull ewes were studied in three dietary regimens based on complete feed block (CFB) feeding to control (C) with rumen protected protein (RPP), CU [RPP + urea (6 g/kg)] and CUF [RPP + urea + rumen protected fat (RPF; 40 g/kg)]. The RPP component (g/kg) in C had 1% formaldehyde‐treated soy flakes 50, mustard cake 50 and sesame cake 30. The mustard and sesame cakes were replaced with urea on equivalent N basis in CU and CUF. The ewes were offered ad libitum CFB composed (g/kg) of concentrate 650, roughage 300 and molasses 50. The digestibility of OM and EE was higher (p < 0.05) in CUF than in CU and C, while that of NDF and ADF was lower (p < 0.05). The CP digestibility was higher in both CU and CUF. Utilization of N and Ca was higher (p < 0.05) in CUF compared with C and CU. Urinary purine derivatives analysis and microbial N synthesis were similar in all the groups. Blood glucose concentration improved at 90 day compared with 0 day. Ruminal attributes showed a higher (p < 0.05) pH, total N, TCA precipitable N, entodiniomorphs and total ciliate population in CU and CUF than in the control. The CUF had higher (p < 0.01) DM, digestible OM and ME intake, which resulted in higher (p < 0.05) weight gain and better feed efficiency. Ewes in all the groups showed an improvement in carcass traits at 90 day. The pre‐slaughter weight was higher (p < 0.05) and dissected and KOH bone content was lower in CUF. Thus, feeding of CFB with urea as a cheaper N source and RPF to enrich with energy supported the improved performance as evidenced from higher nutrient input, ‘utilization and efficiency with enhanced carcass traits’ for better marketability and returns from cull ewes.  相似文献   

Labeo rohita and Argulus siamensis infection: Host size,local inflammatory reaction and immunity modulate ectoparasite load on fish          下载免费PDF全文

Parasite species often show a heterogeneous, highly dispersed pattern of infestation within hosts. Varieties of factors including morphological, physiological, immunological and nutritional characteristics affect the infestation level of a specific parasite in homogenous pray. Limited attempts, however, have been made to explore such underlying drivers of infestation pattern. Here, three stages of Labeo rohita (fingerling, juvenile and pre‐adult) were challenged with ectoparasite, Argulus siamensis in same aquaria. The parasite load on individuals was determined at 5‐day interval for 1 month. The load was found to be highest in pre‐adult stage followed by juveniles and fingerlings. On day 20 post infection, the load of parasite on pre‐adult fish was high along with detectable skin damages. Skin tissues were collected for immune gene expression analysis and histopathology. Histological studies showed increased melanization in the dermis and mild inflammatory cellular reactions in pre‐adult fish whereas, massive subcutaneous myositis with engorged blood vessels were observed in fingerlings. The expression levels of various inflammation and innate immune‐related genes viz., interleukin (IL)‐8, IL‐10, IL‐11, IL‐15, natural killer enhancing factor, toll‐like receptor 4, apolipoprotein A–I and immunoglobulin Z were significantly high in skin samples of infected fingerlings as compared to other two growth stages or controls of each stage. On the other hand, the expression of immunoglobulin M was down‐regulated in all infected samples as compared to their respective controls. The results thus depict that local immuno‐inflammatory response plays a significant role in determining susceptibility of host in intra‐specific group, and has important implications for ecology and aquaculture.  相似文献

Enhanced Lipid Peroxide Levels in the Erythrocytes of Calves with Haemoglobinuria     

Sahoo A  Patra RC  Pathak NN  Dwivedi SK  Dash PK 《Veterinary research communications》2001,25(1):55-59

Eight 6–9 month old calves, showing clinical signs of intermittent haemoglobinuria, even after treatment with an antipiroplasmal drug (4,4-diamidinodiazoaminobenzene diaceturate), were examined for oxidative damage to their erythrocytes and the presence of hemoprotozoa in blood smears. Four calves without signs of haemoglobinuria served as controls. The blood smears from three of the eight calves contained piroplasms for Theileria annulata. Irrespective of the presence of piroplasms in their blood smears, the calves with haemoglobinuria had significantly (p<0.01) lower haemoglobin concentrations (Hb) and packed cell volumes (PCV). The lipid peroxide level in the erythrocytes, but not in the plasma, of calves with red urine was significantly (p<0.05) higher than that for the controls. It is concluded that haemoglobinuria, irrespective of the presence of piroplasms in blood smears, is associated with oxidative stress to erythrocytes and peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids of cell membrane.  相似文献   

Effects of calcium soap of rice bran oil fatty acids supplementation alone and with DL‐α‐tocopherol acetate in lamb diets on performance,digestibility, ruminal parameters and meat quality          下载免费PDF全文

R. S. Bhatt  A. Sahoo  S. A. Karim  A. R. Agrawal 《Journal of animal physiology and animal nutrition》2016,100(3):578-589

Thirty‐six Malpura lambs (28 day old and 6.7 ± 0.25 kg BW) were distributed equally in three groups having six males and six female. They were ad libitum fed individually three different experimental diets containing calcium soap of fatty acids (CA‐FA) at 0 (T₁) and 40 (T₂ and T₃) g/kg concentrate up to six months of age. Animals in T₃ were supplemented additionally with 40 mg DL‐α‐tocopherol acetate/kg of concentrate. The roughage moiety included ad libitum dry Prosopis cineraria and fresh Azadirachata indica leaves. All the lambs were allowed to suckle from their dam up to weaning (90 day of age). Supplementation of Ca‐FA improved weight gain and feed conversion ratio during both pre‐ (28–90 days) and post‐weaning (91–180 days) phases; however, no effect of DL‐α‐tocopherol was observed. Metabolic parameters during post‐weaning phase revealed non‐significant effect on digestibility but improved nitrogen balance in the test groups. The effect on biochemical attributes did not show any significant alteration in ruminal parameters, blood biochemicals and urinary purine derivatives. Carcass traits revealed higher (p < 0.05) dressing yield and loin eye area with Ca‐FA supplementation. The value of thiobarbituric reactive substances for nuggets prepared from frozen carcasses revealed significant (p < 0.05) reduction in T₃ compared to the other dietary groups. Fatty acid profile of adipose tissue revealed higher (p < 0.001) 9‐octadecanoic, 9‐12‐octadecadienoic, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), higher ratio of PUFA/saturated fatty acids (SFA), ω‐6/ω‐3 and lower SFA in Ca‐FA‐supplemented groups. It is concluded that supplementation of 40 g/kg calcium soap prepared from industrial grade rice bran oil in lamb ration provided additional energy intake, improved N utilization, gain and feed conversion ratio besides improving dressing yield and meat quality with CLA enriched fatty acid profile. DL‐α‐tocopherol acetate when supplemented at 40 mg/kg feed reduced lipid oxidation of meat products thus improving its keeping quality.  相似文献   

Length–weight relationship and growth performance of different life stages of hatchery‐produced magur,Clarias magur (Hamilton, 1822)     

Sangram Ketan Sahoo  Shajahan Ferosekhan  Shiba Shankar Giri  Kalidoss Radhakrishnan  Debabrata Panda  Murugesan SriHari  Bindu R. Pillai 《Aquaculture Research》2019,50(5):1431-1437

Length–weight relationship (LWR) of 661 numbers of hatchery‐produced magur, Clarias magur of all the life stages such as hatchlings, fry, fingerlings, juveniles and adults, was studied. The LWR of all the life stages of magur was estimated and the equations are as follows, hatchlings W = 0.0052*L^1.282 (r² = 0.8784), fry W = 0.0088*L^3.028 (r² = 0.8113), fingerlings W = 0.0065*L^3.226 (r² = 0.8906), juveniles W = 0.0028*L^3.420 (r² = 0.8175) and adults W = 0.0017*L^3.491 (r² = 0.8310). A positive allometric growth (b > 3) was observed in all the life stages except hatchlings. The annual growth rate of magur was observed with the body length and weight of 24 ± 1 cm and 115 ± 17 g, respectively, under the commercial production system. This is the first kind of study that describes about the LWR and growth performance of all the life stages of hatchery‐produced C. magur catfish from hatchlings to adults under commercial production system. This study will be more useful to the hatchery managers and fish growers to optimize the resources and husbandry practices to improve the growth, survival, and biomass production.  相似文献   

Replacement of by-catch fishmeal with dried chicken viscera meal in extruded feeds: effect on growth,nutrient utilisation and carcass composition of catfish <Emphasis Type="Italic">Clarias batrachus</Emphasis> (Linn.) fingerlings     

Shiba Shankar Giri  Sangram Ketan Sahoo  Satyendra Nath Mohanty 《Aquaculture International》2010,18(4):539-544

An 84-day feeding trial was conducted to study the effect of replacing dietary fishmeal with dried chicken viscera meal (CVM) on the growth (net biomass gain, specific growth rate, SGR), feed acceptability, feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and carcass composition of Clarias batrachus fingerlings. Triplicate groups of fingerlings with mean initial body weight of 13.35 g were fed on six iso-nitrogenous and iso-lipidic diets. The control diet (CVM0) used marine by-catch fishmeal as the sole source of animal protein. In the other five diets (CVM100–CVM500), 20–100% of fishmeal was substituted by dried CVM at 20% increments. The highest body weight gain, SGR and PER, and the lowest FCR were observed in fish fed a diet containing 300–500 g CVM kg⁻¹. The fish accumulated increasing quantities of lipids and decreasing levels of ash in their carcasses with increasing levels of dietary CVM.  相似文献   

Growth performance of pengba,Osteobrama belangeri (Valenciennes, 1844) and water quality changes during fingerling rearing with varied stocking density in large outdoor concrete tanks     

Pratap Chandra Das  Prabhati Kumari Sahoo  Snatashree Mohanty  Monali Mishra  Subrat Kumar Swain 《Aquaculture Research》2020,51(3):982-988

Fingerling rearing of pengba, Osteobrama belangeri, was conducted at varied densities for 90 days in 12 outdoor concrete tanks (10 m × 5 m × 1 m). The tanks, grouped into four triplicated treatments, were stocked with fry at 20, 30, 40 and 50 fry m^‐3; and designated as control, T‐1, T‐2 and T‐3 respectively. Tanks were filled up to 90 cm depth. Evaporation loss compensated fortnightly. Fish sampling and monitoring of water quality parameters done at fortnight intervals. Survival varied between 71.5% and 84.0% in treatments. Both survival and total length significantly reduced with increasing densities from control to T‐2 (p < .05), while no differences were observed between T‐2 and T‐3 (p > .05). Similarly, significant reductions in final body weight and specific growth rate were observed with increased densities and these values further reduced in T‐3 than T‐2 (p < .05). Such results corroborated the inverse relationship between stocking density and growth. Gross biomass yields in two higher densities (T‐2 and T‐3), despite their lower survivals, were significantly higher than the two lower densities. The numbers of fingerlings harvested were 35, 74 and 112% higher than the control in T‐1, T‐2 and T‐3 respectively. The lowest size obtained even at the highest density (T‐3) was of 7.0 ± 1.0 cm and 3.99 ± 0.17 g, which can be considered as ideal grow‐out stocking size of pengba. Therefore, the study showed feasibility of stocking up to 50 fry m^‐3 for rearing from fry to fingerling stage. However, the other lower densities may be used in case of requirement of larger fingerlings.  相似文献

Modelling of groundwater recharge potential from irrigated paddy field under changing climate     

G. T. Patle  D. K. Singh  A. Sarangi  R. N. Sahoo 《Paddy and Water Environment》2017,15(2):413-423

Groundwater recharge from irrigated paddy field under various projected climate change scenarios was assessed using HYDRUS-1D model. Recharge flux, root water uptake, evaporation and surface runoff were simulated on daily time step for the growing period of paddy. Crop evapotranspiration and effective rainfall during the simulation period were estimated to be 301.9 and 269.4 mm, respectively. Cumulative bottom flux, root water uptake, evaporation and surface runoff were 69.2, 23.2, 30.8 and 0.0 cm for sandy loam and 37.2, 23.0, 30.8 and 0.7 cm for clay loam soils, respectively. Simulation results showed that the groundwater recharge potentials in sandy loam and clay loam soils with paddy crop are 69.2 and 37.2 cm, respectively. Cumulative recharge under various climate change scenarios from paddy field varied from 63.9 to 74.4 cm, 33.7 to 39.8 cm, 29.3 to 35.4 cm and 27.1 to 34.3 cm from land units A1 (sandy loam), B1 (clay loam with slight salinity), C1 (clay loam with moderate saline and slight sodic) and D1 (clay loam with strong saline and sodic), respectively. Cumulative recharge flux under the scenarios in which increase in relative humidity along with decrease in duration of sunshine hours was associated with rise in average temperature and wind speed, groundwater recharge would increase by 7.4 %. Cumulative recharge flux under the scenarios which were based on rise in temperature along with the increase in rainfall, groundwater recharge would increase by 0.2–3.9 %. Simulation results also showed that cumulative recharge would decrease under all those scenarios, which were based on rise in temperature only.  相似文献
