Download or read book Feeding of Leucaena Mimosine on Small Ruminats written by Aung Aung and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2007-02-27 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rumen juice was treated with gradually increasing amount of mimosine to develop a bacterium that degrades mimosine by using IBT-Göttinger Bioreactor. At the beginning, the amount of mimosine was 25 mg/d and 25 mg mimosine was increased every two days. The fermentation period was 16 d and final amount of mimosine was 200 mg/d. Samples treated with 200 mg mimosine /d showed mimosine degradation within 3 -7 d. After fermentation for selection, mimosine degrading ruminal bacterium was isolated and identified using bacterial staining, PCR amplification and DNA sequencing. According to identification, it was known as one of Klebsiella pneumonae spp. Another mimosine degrading ruminal bacteria, Synergestii jonesii was provided from USDA to compare mimosine degradability with new isolate. These bacteria were multiplied with IBT-Göttinger Bioreactor and preserved for storage to use in farm by freeze-drying and incorporation of bacteria in alginate beads. The bacteria preserved were used for field experiment with digestion trial in Myanmar sheep. The experiment included 10 groups and 3 animals in each group. Group I was control group without leucaena feed and group II was control group fed toxic level of luecaena feed. The animals from group III-X were inoculated with mimosine degrading bacteria to observe and compare mimosine degradability of different types of preservation, dosage (once and 14 days continuous inoculation) inoculation and strains of mimosine degrading bacteria. The experimental period consisted of 7 d for preliminary experiment, 14 d for feeding trial and 5 consecutive days for collection of faecal and urine samples. All diets were adjusted to be isonitrogenous at the feeding level. Dietary treatments were weekly adjusted by the supplements at the level of crude protein not less than 17%. The animals from group II showed symptom of leucaena toxicosis although the animals inoculated animals showed no signs. Although the animals from group I and the other animals showed increased rice straw intake, the animals from group II showed decrease intake after one week of experiment. The nutrient intakes, digestibility of nutrients and nutritive value of control group II were not satisfactory like other animals. Although these bacteria showed similar physical properties with reference K. penumoniae, the new isolate 3948 had different biological properties. No clinical symptoms concerned with klebsiellosis were also found in groups inoculated with isolate 3948. It means that this bacterium might be another type of K. pneumoniae spp. This experiment was also intended to find a suitable method of storage to use in field experiment. According to findings, both of methods are suitable for the storage of mimosine degrading ruminal bacteria. Entrapment of bacteria in alginate beads should be one option, because it can be kept at ambient temperature and easy to produce. To improve the role of use of leucaena in livestock, it is suggested to to follow the experiment with monogastric animals using mimosine degrading Klebsiella to control leucaena toxicosis.

Book excerpt: Herbicides represent one of the most widely used groups of pesticides worldwide for control of weed species in agricultural and non-crop settings. Due to the extensive use of herbicides and their value in weed management, herbicide research remains crucial for ensuring continued, effective use of herbicides while minimizing detrimental effects to ecosystems. Presently, a wide range of research continues to focus on improved herbicide use, environmental impact of herbicides, and even medicinal application of herbicide chemistries. In Herbicides - Advances in Research, authors cover multiple topics concerning current, valuable herbicide research.

Download or read book Rumen Microbiology From Evolution to Revolution written by Anil Kumar Puniya and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an in-depth description of different groups of microbes (i.e. bacteria, protozoa, fungi and viruses) that exist in the rumen microbial community, and offers an overview of rumen microbiology, the rumen microbial ecosystem of domesticated ruminants, and rumen microbial diversity. It provides the latest concepts on rumen microbiology for scholars, researchers and teachers of animal and veterinary sciences. With this goal in mind, throughout the text we focus on specific areas related to the biology and complex interactions of the microbes in rumen, integrating significant key issues in each respective area. We also discuss rumen manipulation with plant secondary metabolites, microbial feed additives, utilization of organic acids, selective inhibition of harmful rumen microbes, and ‘omics’ approaches to manipulating rumen microbial functions. A section on the exploration and exploitation of rumen microbes addresses topics including the current state of knowledge on rumen metagenomics, rumen: an underutilized niche for industrially important enzymes and ruminal fermentations to produce fuels. We next turn our attention to commercial applications of rumen microbial enzymes and to the molecular characterization of euryarcheal communities within an anaerobic digester. A section on intestinal disorders and rumen microbes covers acidosis in cattle, urea/ ammonia metabolism in the rumen and nitrate/ nitrite toxicity in ruminant diets. Last, the future prospects of rumen microbiology are examined, based on the latest developments in this area. In summary, the book offers a highly systematic collection of essential content on rumen microbiology.
Download or read book Mitigation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Livestock Production written by Pierre J. Gerber and published by Food & Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO). This book was released on 2013 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current analysis was conducted to evaluate the potential of nutritional, manure and animal husbandry practices for mitigating methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) - i.e. non-carbon dioxide (CO2) - GHG emissions from livestock production. These practices were categorized into enteric CH4, manure management and animal husbandry mitigation practices. Emphasis was placed on enteric CH4 mitigation practices for ruminant animals (only in vivo studies were considered) and manure mitigation practices for both ruminant and monogastric species. Over 900 references were reviewed; simulation and life cycle assessment analyses were generally excluded
