Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Mannan-Oligosaccharides on Daily Weight Gain and Health of Pre-Weaned Holstein Calves in ChilePedro Melendez, Pablo Pinedo, Maria Paz Marin, Angelica AriasThe objective was to compare the effect of S. cerevisiae and mannan-oligosaccharides on Average Daily Gain (ADG), live weight and health of dairy calves in Chile. Calves were weighed at birth and randomly assigned to 3 groups: (i) Yeast (YS): 5 g/calf/day of a live yeast (n = 25); (ii) Mannan (MN): 3 g/calf/day of mannan-oligosaccharides (n = 25); (iii) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2018 · 8,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMeta Analysis of Growth Performance of Broilers in Response to Dietary Cassava Leaf Meal InterventionChristian Anayo Mbajiorgu, Ifeanyi Princewill OgbuewuThe use of Cassava Leaf Meal (CLM) in broiler diets has gained attention due to its high crude protein content (24-35%) and other valuable nutrients. Therefore, the objective of this meta-analysis was to assess the impact of diets with and without CLM on broiler growth performance. Search performed on four bibliographic databases produced 584 articles of which 11 were used … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2026 · 578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Breeding Qualities of Kazakh White-Headed Bulls by Testing Their ProductivityAruzhan Nugmanova, Aliya Akhmetaliyeva, Yedige Nassambayev et al.The purpose of the study was to quantify the breeding qualities of Kazakh White-Headed bulls by assessing their productivity metrics. The primary objectives were to analyze live weight dynamics, daily growth rates, feed conversion efficiency, and morphological meat quality and to employ "A" complex indices for evaluating the breeding potential. The study observed bulls aged 8-15 months at the Khafiza … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 26 Jul 2024 · 5,407 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetection of Polymorphism at the Insulin Like Growth Factor-I Gene in Mazandaran Native Chicken using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism MethodHossein Ali Abbasi, Mohsen KazemiProblem statement: Molecular genetics selection on individual genes is a promising method to genetically improve economically important traits in chickens. The Insulin like Growth Factor-I (IGF1) gene may play important roles in growth of multiple tissues, including muscle cells, cartilage and bone. Approach: In the present study polymorphism of the promoter and 5' untranslated region of IGF-1 gene of Mazandaran … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 Aug 2011 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Palm Kernel Cake Based Biosupplement Biscuits on Nutrient Utilization, Growth Performance, and Metabolic Responses in Male Ettawah GoatsTintin Rostini, Suharlina, Achmad Jaelani et al.Palm Kernel Cake (PKC), a major by-product of the palm oil industry, has considerable potential as an alternative feed ingredient for ruminants because of its wide availability, moderate protein content, and economic value. However, its utilization is often constrained by high fiber and lignocellulosic components that may limit nutrient digestibility. This study evaluated the effects of PKC-based biosupplement biscuits as … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 22 Oct 2026 · 312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Early Weaning on Performance, Health Parameters, and Carcass Traits of Bonsmara Bull Calves Under Feedlot ConditionsKgotso Patrick Matli, Thobela Louis Tyasi, Pieter FourieA feedlot is an intensive farming system used for finishing livestock. This study analyzed the performance, health, and carcass traits of Early-Weaned Calves (EWC) and Traditionally-Weaned Calves (TWC). A total of 285 Bonsmara bull calves were grouped into two weaning strategies, with 136 EWC (255±27.30 kg) and 149 TWC (308±24.60 kg).
