Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary guanidineaceticacid (GAA) and betaine(BT) on growth and development, slaughter performance and meat quality of lambs. Forty-eight 3-months-old Dorper×Thin-Tailed Han F1 hybrid male lambs with similar body weight of (22.03±1.30) kg were randomly divided into 4 groups, with a 2×2 factorial arrangement. The experimental factors were GAA (0 or 900 mg/kg GAA) and BT (0 or 5 g/d). Lambs in four groups were fed basal diets supplemented with 0, 5 g/d BT, 900 mg/kg GAA and 5 g/d BT+900 mg/kg GAA, respectively. The feeding experiment lasted for 75 days with 15 days of adaptation and followed by 60 days of trial period. The results showed as follows:1) the average daily gain and feed efficiency were significantly increased with BT supplementation (P ≤ 0.05). Additionally, the supplementation of GAA and BT in the diet of lambs had a significant interaction effect on average daily gain and feed efficiency (P ≤ 0.05). 2) The net meat rate and eye muscle area were significantly improved with GAA supplementation (P ≤ 0.05). The eye muscle area was significantly increased by adding BT (P ≤ 0.05). There was no significant interaction effect between GAA and BT on slaughter performance (P>0.05). 3) The addition of GAA significantly increased ileum length (P ≤ 0.05). No significant effect was observed on organ development with the supplementation of GAA or BT(P>0.05). 4) The GAA supplementation significantly increased pH24 h, and reduced water loss rate of longissimus dorsi (P ≤ 0.05). The GAA supplementation had a tendency to increase the crude protein content of longissimus dorsi (P=0.096). There was a tendency to increase pH24 h (P=0.061) and water loss rate of longissimus dorsi (P=0.061), when BT added in the ration. Supplementation of GAA and BT had significant interaction effect on water loss rate of longissimus dorsi (P ≤ 0.05). Both GAA and BT had a tendency to increase 24 h lightness (L24 h*) value (P=0.077). In conclusion, dietary supplementation of GAA and BT can improve the growth performance, slaughter performance and meat quality of lambs.
