Abstract

This study aimed to compare metabolizable energy (ME) of Leymus chinensis in mutton sheep determined by direct and substitution methods. Thirty crossbreed rams weighted about 45.0 kg were used and divided into 5 treatments with 6 replicates per treatment and 1 sheep per replicate according to a randomized block design. The diets in different treatments were as follows:full Leymus chinensis diet for direct method, and a basal diet (forage:concentrate ratio was 1:1) and three experimental diets (the basal diet was replaced by Leymus chinensis at 60%, 40% and 20%) for substitution method. Diets were fed twice at 08:00 and 18:00 (600 g at each time point). Each experiment period lasted for 19 d including 10 d of pretest period and 9 d of test period. The results showed as follows:the apparent digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, gross energy and crude protein of showed that basal diet group> 20% group> 40% group> 60% group>full Leymus chinensis diet group, and significant differences were found among groups (P<0.05). The digestible energy (DE) and ME showed that basal diet group> 20% group> 40% group> 60% group> full Leymus chinensis diet group, and significant differences were found among groups (P<0.05). DM:ME had no significant difference among treatments (P>0.05). The apparent digestibility of crude protein and neutral detergent fiber had no difference between direct and substitutions methods. The apparent digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, and gross energy of Leymus chinensis in full Leymus chinensis diet group measured with direct method was significantly higher than those in 40% group (P<0.05), but had no significant difference with 20% group and 40% group (P>0.05). The DE and ME in full Leymus chinensis diet group were significantly higher than those in 60% group (P<0.05), and had no significant difference with 40% group and 20% group (P>0.05). In determination of ME of Leymus chinensis using direct and substitution methods, a significant difference is observed when the substitution proportion is different. The optimal substitution proportion is 20% when using substitution method to measure ME.
