Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary non-phytate phosphorus (NPP) level on reproduction performance, tibial indexes and plasma biochemical indexes of yellow-feathered broiler breeders aged from 39 to 46 weeks, and in order to determine the suitable phosphorus allowance of this phase. Eight hundred and ten 39-week-old parent Lingnan yellow-feathered broiler breeder hens were randomly assigned to 5 groups. Each group had 6 replicates with 27 birds per replicate. Group 1 was the control group, in which the birds were fed a corn-soybean meal basal diet with 0.30% NPP. Dietary NPP levels in groups 2 to 5 were adjusted to 0.35%, 0.40%, 0.45% and 0.50% from the basal diet, respectively; all other nutrient levels were identical. Birds were fed 122 g of diet per bird per day and watered ad libitum during the experimental period of 8 weeks. The results showed as follows: 1) dietary NPP level had no significant effects on average daily gain, average daily egg mass, the ratio of feed to egg, average egg weight, broken egg rate (P>0.05), had significant effects on laying rate and unqualified egg rate (P<0.05). Broiler breeders fed 0.45% NPP had a higher laying rate than those fed 0.30% and 0.40% NPP (P<0.05). Unqualified egg rate of 0.40% group was significantly lower than the other 4 groups (P<0.05). 2) There were significant influences of dietary NPP level on long diameter, short diameter, shape index, and eggshell strength of eggs produced during the period of 39 to 40 weeks (P<0.05), and eggshell strength of eggs from 45 to 46 weeks (P<0.05). 3) Dietary NPP level had no significant effect on hatching performance (fertilization rate, hatchability, salable chick rate and average salable chick birth weight) (P>0.05). 4) The contents of calcium and phosphorus in dry defatted tibial ash were significantly increased by dietary NPP supplementation (P<0.05). 5) The contents in plasma of parathyroid hormone was significantly higher in birds fed diets containing 0.40% and 0.45% NPP than in those of 0.30% and 0.35% NPP (P<0.05) and calcitonin was higher in birds fed 0.50% NPP than all other NPP levels (P<0.05). The results indicate that the optimal dietary NPP level for yellow-feathered broiler breeders aged from 39 to 46 weeks is 0.40% to 0.45%, equivalent to 0.488 to 0.549 g/d on the basis of calculated by feed intake.
