1. The effect of the crude protein content (200 and 150 g/kg) of isoenergetic diets on episodic growth hormone (GH) release and on heat production was investigated in male broiler chickens. 2. Decreasing the crude protein content of isoenergetic diets from 200 g/kg (HP diet) to 150 g/kg (LP diet) resulted in depressed body weight gain, impaired food conversion efficiency and increased abdominal fat deposition. 3. The pattern of growth hormone secretion was markedly affected by dietary treatment. Broiler chickens fed on the LP diet had higher overall mean, amplitude, baseline and peak frequency than the HP chickens. 4. The LP chickens produced more heat per unit of metabolic body weight than the HP chickens. 5. The hypothesis relating the pattern of GH secretion to protein conversion efficiency was corroborated.  相似文献   

Correlated Responses in Two Traits when Selection is Practised on their Ratio     

M. Hühn 《Plant Breeding》1992,109(1):28-34

In many fields of application in plant breeding and crop science, ratios of two component traits X and Y are of interest (harvest index in cereals, leaf-to-stem ratio in forage legumes, height-to-diameter ratio in forest trees etc.). When selection is practised on the ratio X/Y of two traits X and Y, the experimenter may be interested in the resulting changes of both trait means. Based on improved approximations for the covariances between X and X/Y and between Y and X/Y and for the variance of X/Y the changes in the means of X and Y can be predicted by applying the regression approach from conventional selection theory. Explicit expressions for these correlated responses in X and Y when selection is practised on their ratio X/Y are derived and discussed. The different outcomes (decrease, zero change or increase) for the selection pressures on X and Y are characterized by phenotypic coefficients of variation of X and Y, phenotypic and genotypic correlations between X and Y and heritabilities of X and Y.  相似文献

Regional and local scale variations in soil organic carbon stocks in West Greenland     

Philipp Gries  Karsten Schmidt  Thomas Scholten  Peter Kühn 《植物养料与土壤学杂志》2020,183(3):292-305

The soil organic carbon (SOC) pool of the Northern Hemisphere contains about half of the global SOC stored in soils. As the Arctic is exceptionally sensitive to global warming, temperature rise and prolonged summer lead to deeper thawing of permafrost‐affected soils and might contribute to increasing greenhouse gas emissions progressively. To assess the overall feedback of soil organic carbon stocks (SOCS) to global warming in permafrost‐affected regions the spatial variation in SOCS at different environmental scales is of great interest. However, sparse and unequally distributed soil data sets at various scales in such regions result in highly uncertain estimations of SOCS of the Northern Hemisphere and here particularly in Greenland. The objectives of this study are to compare and evaluate three controlling factors for SOCS distribution (vegetation, landscape, aspect) at two different scales (local, regional). The regional scale reflects the different environmental conditions between the two study areas at the coast and the ice margin. On the local scale, characteristics of each controlling factor in form of defined units (vegetation units, landscape units, aspect units) are used to describe the variation in the SOCS over short distances within each study area, where the variation in SOCS is high. On a regional scale, we investigate the variation in SOCS by comparing the same units between the study areas. The results show for both study areas that SOCS are with 8 kg m^?2 in the uppermost 25 cm and 16 kg m^?2 in the first 100 cm of the soil, i.e., 3 to 6 kg m^?2 (37.5%) higher than existing large scale estimations of SOCS in West Greenland. Our approach allows to rank the scale‐dependent importance of the controlling factors within and between the study areas. However, vegetation and aspect better explain variations in SOCS than landscape units. Therefore, we recommend vegetation and aspect for determining the variation in SOCS in West Greenland on both scales.  相似文献

The effects of health classification and housing and management of feeder pigs on performance and meat inspection findings of all-in-all-out swine-finishing herds     

Heinonen M  Gröhn YT  Saloniemi H  Eskola E  Tuovinen VK 《Preventive veterinary medicine》2001,49(1-2):41-54

The effects of health classification and of housing and management on performance and meat inspection findings were studied in 166 all-in-all-out finishing herds in Finland in 1995 and 1998. Producers could buy either health-classified (certified free of certain diseases) or standard-class pigs for their farms. Herds that had attained a certain level of housing and management were eligible to join the LSO 2000 management system for finishing herds. In 1995, none of the study herds were LSO 2000 units. In 1998, 76 of them had become LSO 2000 units, while 90 had remained as non-LSO 2000 units. Continuous outcome variables (daily gain and time in the finishing unit) were analysed with a mixed-model procedure with repeated measurements from the same farms. Discrete variables were analysed either with Poisson regression (mortality, whole- and partial-carcass condemnations, organ condemnations, arthritis, abscesses) or logistic regression (liver condemnations, pneumonia, pleuritis). The models were adjusted for the year, size of the herd and the average slaughter weight of the batch.The benefits obtained by the health classification of the feeder pigs included a substantial increase in daily gain (37g, about 5%) and decrease in time in the finishing unit (4 days, about 4%), decrease in mortality (odds ratio, OR 0.68), a substantial decrease in pneumonia (OR 0.37) and pleuritis (OR 0.60), and a substantial decrease in liver (OR 0.45) and organ (OR 0.72) condemnations. Classification of the pigs did not have an effect on the prevalence of whole-carcass condemnations, arthritis or abscesses. The health-classified pigs had, unexpectedly, more partial-carcass condemnations (OR 1.15) than the standard-class pigs. The obtained benefits of the LSO 2000 units were an increase in daily gain (14g, about 2%), decrease in time in the finishing unit (2 days, about 2%), a decrease in mortality (OR 0.69) and a decrease in whole-carcass (OR 0.69) and partial-carcass (OR 0.81) condemnations. The LSO 2000 units did not have any advantage over the non-LSO 2000 units in their prevalence of liver or organ condemnations, arthritis, abscesses, pneumonia or pleuritis.  相似文献

Analysis of correlated continuous repeated observations: modelling the effect of ketosis on milk yield in dairy cows   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Gröhn YT  McDermott JJ  Schukken YH  Hertl JA  Eicker SW 《Preventive veterinary medicine》1999,39(2):137-153

This study used mixed models analysis to demonstrate the advantages of a repeated measures technique for a continuous variable over a single measure technique. As an illustration, the loss of milk yield due to ketosis was studied in 2604 multiparous New York State Holstein cows belonging to eight herds, calving between 1991 and 1993. Two methods of analysis were presented: The first treated milk yield as a continuous, summary measure (projected 305-day milk yield); the second treated milk yield as repeated measurements (test-day milk yields). In the first example, with 305-day milk yield as the outcome, ketosis was treated as a binary covariate. Ketosis had no effect on the 305-day milk yield. In the second example, with monthly test-day milk yields as the outcome, four different covariance structures (simple, compound symmetry, autoregressive, and unstructured) to model the association among the repeated measurements were compared. With this approach, ketotic cows yielded significantly less milk per day both before and immediately after diagnosis than did non-ketotic cows. Based on the goodness-of-fit statistics, it was unclear whether an autoregressive or unstructured covariance structure was best. However, an autoregressive structure, in which the previous and current test-day milk yields are assumed to be correlated, was considered more suitable in this study; it is a simpler and more appropriate covariance structure for this particular problem than is an unstructured covariance structure. Nevertheless, with the test-day approach, any of these correlation structures could be used to estimate milk loss after disease. Based on these findings, it is recommended that a repeated measures approach, rather than a single measure approach, be used to study the short-term effect of disease on milk yield.  相似文献   

Control of fertility outcome in artificially inseminated gilts and old sows. 2: Addition of oxytocin to boar semen. Its effect on length of insemination, pregnancy rate and litter size]     

U Hühn  M Fritzsch  R Dahms 《Archiv fuer experimentelle veterinaermedizin》1977,31(4):561-566

Toleration-oriented insemination was applied to 1,373 oestrous sows that had undergone bio-engineering treatment, with two insemination portions having been used for each oestrous. Five International Units of oxytocin were added immediately before insemination proper to the semen applied to 315 gilts and 377 old sows. The control group included 296 gilts and 385 old sows inseminated in parallel. Semen intake, on average, was complete between four and eight minutes with the majority of gilts and between four and seven minutes with most of the old sows, but no evidence was obtained as to any action of the oxytoxin upon intake intensity. The treated gilts were superior to the controls by 6.3 per cent in pregnancy rate and by 56 born piglets to each 100 first inseminations. Superiority, consequently, was significant. In both gilts and old sows added oxytocin prolonged insemination by more than five minutes and gave clearly better fertility results.  相似文献   

Macrolid resistance in Staphylococcus aureus strains from chicken synovitis and dermatitis in industrial production     

W Witte  H Kühn 《Archiv fuer experimentelle veterinaermedizin》1978,32(1):105-114

In outbreaks of synovitis and dermatitis in chicken caused by Staphylococcus (Staph.) aureus we observed erythromycin-resistant strains. These strains belong to the host-specific variety gallinae of Staph. aureus or can not be alloted to one of the known host-specific varieties. The macrolide-resistance-determinant is not carried by a plasmid, presumably it is located on the chromosome. The strains show constitutively cross-resistance to erythromycin, thurimycin, linomycinc and pristinamycin (M-L-S-phenotype). An ecological investigation in a chicken farm has shown that there is no distribution of Staph. aureus-strains from chicken to workers and no occurence of macrolide-resistance in Staph. aureus-strains from the workers.  相似文献
