Abstract

The aim of this experiment was to study the effects of lysine and other essential amino acids on growth performance, serum biochemical indexes, organ indexes and intestinal morphology of medium-speed yellow-feather broilers during 1 to 18 days of age. A total of 810 one-day-old male medium-speed yellow-feather broilers were randomly divided into 9 groups with 6 replicates per group and 15 broilers per replicate, and fed with 9 different amino acid levels of diets. Three lysine levels (0.89%, 1.05% and 1.20%) and three other essential amino acids levels (low-level: 0.66% methionine+0.58% threonine+0.16% tryptophan; medium-level: 0.78% methionine+0.68% threonine+0.19% tryptophan; high-level: 0.90% methionine+0.78% threonine+0.22% tryptophan) were designed. The experimental period was 18 days. The results showed as follows: 1) the average daily gain of 1.05% and 1.20% lysine level groups was significantly higher than that of 0.89% lysine level group (P<0.05), and the ratio of feed to gain of 1.05% lysine level group was significantly lower than that of 0.89% and 1.20% lysine level groups (P<0.05). 2) The interaction of lysine and other essential amino acids had significant effect on serum total protein (TP) content (P<0.05). The contents of TP and uric acid in serum of 1.05% lysine level group were significantly lower than those of 0.89% and 1.20% lysine level groups (P<0.05); the contents of cholesterol and high density lipoprotein in serum of low and medium other essential amino acids level groups were significantly higher than those of high other essential amino acids level group (P<0.05), and the serum triglyceride content of low and medium other essential amino acids level groups was significantly lower than those of high other essential amino acids level group (P<0.05). 3) The interaction of lysine and other essential amino acids had significant effect on bursa of Fabricius index (P<0.05), which was highest when lysine level was 1.20%, methionine 0.78% level was, threonine level was 0.68% and tryptophan level was 0.19%. The thymus index of medium other essential amino acids level group was significantly higher than that of low and high other essential amino acids level groups (P<0.05). 4) The interaction of lysine and other essential amino acids had significant effect on jejunum crypt depth (P<0.05). The jejunum villus height of 0.89% lysine level group was significantly higher than that of 1.05% lysine level group (P<0.05). The jejunum crypt depth of low other essential amino acids level group was significantly lower than that of medium and high other essential amino acids level groups (P<0.05), and the villus height/crypt depth was significantly higher than that of medium and high other essential amino acids level groups (P<0.05). In conclusion, when the dietary levels of lysine, methionine, threonine and tryptophan are 1.05%, 0.78%, 0.68% and 0.19%, respectively, the growth performance and serum biochemical indexes of medium-speed yellow-feather broilers during 1 to 18 days of age are the best under this experimental conditions.
