@Research Paper <#LINE#>Effect of Quantitative Feed Restriction on Carcass Characteristics and Some Blood Parameters in Broiler Chickens<#LINE#>Seyyed Naeim@SABER <#LINE#>1-6<#LINE#>1.ISCA-IRJBS-2016-022.pdf<#LINE#>Cukurova University, Department of Animal Science, Adana, Turkey<#LINE#>13/2/2016<#LINE#>22/9/2016<#LINE#>This experiment was conducted to examine the effect of feed restriction on the carcass characteristics of broiler chicks. In this study 420 day-old male broiler chickens (Cobb-500) were randomly divided into 7 treatments (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) each in 4 replicates of 15 birds per pen. Group A was fed ad libitum throughout the experiment and other six groups were fed restricted as B( 8h/day in 7-14 days of age), C(16h/day in 7-14 days of age), D (8h/day in 14-21 days of age), E (16h/ day in 14-21 days of age), F (8h/ day in 21-28 days of age) and G (16h/ day in 21-28 days of age). At the end of the experiment two chickens from each pen were randomly selected and slaughtered to determine carcass and some blood parameters and then data were analyzed. Results revealed that there was no significantly difference in live weight, carcass weight, breast weight, thighs weight, heart weight, abdominal fat weight, liver weight and gizzard weight (p>0.05). There were significantly differences (p<0.05) in breast crude fat and breast dry matter parameters. The date obtained showed there were not differences in hematocrit, hemoglobin and RV/TV but there is significantly difference in Ascites mortality parameter (p<0.05).<#LINE#>Julian R.J.

The biochemical constituents (amino acids, soluble proteins, reducing sugars, soluble sugars, starch and phenols) were altered in the spiralling whitefly infested mulberry leaves. Changes were also observed in the photosynthetic pigments (total chlorophyll, chlorophyll – a, chlorophyll – b, chlorophyll – a/b ratio and carotenoids). The pest infestational changes in these components lead to inferior nutritive values in mulberry foliage. The growth and development of the silkworms (Bombyx mori L) will be affect adversely and leads to the inferior quality and quantity of the silk.<#LINE#>Geetha B., Loganathan M. and Swamiappan M.

This present survey seeks to determine species-types, abundance, distribution and diversity of biting and non-biting muscids in 03 ecological zones (Rao, Mbele (Vina) and Syrien Campsite) in this area in order to fill this gap. A line transect survey using unbaited Vavoua (N=15) and Biconical (N=15) traps, displayed in a 10x3 (i.e. 10 traps per each of the 3 sites) with 5:5 ratio of both traps in each plot. Traps were emptied every evening (5:30pm). Overall flies catch was 1609 and 1501 muscids were captured, identified and classified into the following taxonomic taxa i.e. two genera: Musca (non-biting) 783 (52.17%) and Stomoxys (biting) 718 (47.83%). At the species level, Musca domestica Linnaeaus 1758; 783 (52.17%) was the only Musca species identified and 04 Stomoxys species were identified in different proportions-Stomoxys calcitrans Linnaeaus, 1758; 372 (24.78%), S. niger niger Macquart, 1851; 193 (12.86%), S. niger bilineatus Grünberg, 1906; 109 (7.26%) and S. sitiens Rondani, 1873; 44(2.93%) Musca domestica was highly distributed, followed by S. calcitrans and lastly by S. sitiens. Glossines (108) were also captured and identified into- Glossina tachinoides 87(80.56%) and Glossina morsitans submorsitans 21 (19.44%). Fly species were highly diversified and frequent in Mbele (Vina), followed by Syrien Campsite and rare in Rao. Vavoua was the trap of choice for the capture of most species than Biconical.Musca and Stomoxys caused the highest annoyance around farms in Sora Mboum of North Cameroon and their control efforts will reduce this direct effect and indirectly lead to the complete management of the diseases they transmit.<#LINE#>Desquesnes M., Dia M.L., Acapovi G.L. and Yoni W.

This study focuses on the inhibitory effect of salinity on uptake of two macro nutrients in shoot of sorghum. Four sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) cultivars viz. Pant Chari-1, Pant Chari-2, CSV-15 and HC-171 were studied in laboratory for sodium and potassium uptake under varying salt stresses. Seedlings were exposed to 0, 3, 6, 7.2, 10 and 12 EC and after ten days of starting the salt treatment, growth of shoot system and uptake of Na+ and K+ were determined. It was found that concentration of sodium ion increased while concentration of potassium ions decreased invariably from 3 to 12 EC salinities in all four genotypes. The tolerant genotype CSV-15 and HC-171 recorded minimum concentration of Na+ as compared to cultivar Pant Chari-1 and Pant Chari-2 at all level of salinity. Salinity stress negatively affected uptake of K+ in all cultivars of sorghum. Potassium ion content was highest in CSV-15 and lowest in sensitive genotype Pant Chari-2. Present study suggests that tolerance to salt stress in sorghum genotypes is related to maintain the concentrations of Na and K ions at varying salinity levels.<#LINE#>Igartua E., Gracia M.P. and Lasa J.M.

Many studies have been carried out on the cytogenetics and biochemical genetics of these flies; however, very little work has been carried out using DNA based methods for their molecular characterization. Therefore, in the present study amplification of Cytochrome b gene was performed among five sarcophagids viz., Sarcophaga knabi, S. albiceps, S. dux, S. argyrostoma and S. ruficornis with a view to unravel the genetic relationship among these Indian flesh flies. DNA sequence was analysed using MEGA 4 software. Phylogenetic analysis was also performed which is in congruence with the results found earlier by using COI gene. The result shows the reliability of Cyt b gene as a diagnostic marker for the genetic study of these flesh flies.<#LINE#>Zumpt F.

The fruits were collected and milled into powder after drying in an oven at 70°C for 24 h. The dried powder material was used for phytochemical analysis. The phytochemical analysis indicated that most of the screened compounds were present in the samples, including phenols, flavonoids, steroids, alkaloids, glycosides, tannins, saponins and triterpenoids. However, phenols and anthocyanins were not detected in C.annum and C.frutescens respectively. The results also showed a higher presence of phytochemicals in C.annum than in C.frutescens. Quantitative analysis of the fruit revealed high amounts of pectins (14 .60±4.74 % ) and alkaloids(5.30±0.01% ) in C.annum while high concentrations of saponins were recorded in both species (11.40±2.60 and 3.7±0.30% in C.annum and C.frutescens respectively). Phenols and anthocyanins were detected in lower quantities (1.17±0.37 - 1.9±0.50%) and flavonoids were detected as trace compounds (0.50±0.08-0.90±0.10%). From the results it was possible to conclude that the fruits contained bioactive compounds that help in fighting against degenerative and chronic diseases and determined the fruits’ nutritional and medicinal value. This suggests that the fruits could be used for food supplementation in developing countries.<#LINE#>Hernandez Verdugo S., Luna-Reyes R. and Oyama K.

It is identified as an effective antitumor agent in human clinical trials and is now recognized as one of the important component of antitumor therapy. The purpose of the present study was to screen for the production of L-asparaginase enzyme in Spinacea oleracea. The presence of the enzyme was confirmed by the formation of ammonia which was detected using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer at 460nm. The enzyme activity was found to be 1.9IU and specific activity was 6.8 µmoles/mg/min. The enzyme kinetics revealed that the optimum pH of the enzyme L-asparaginase was 8.0, optimum temperature was found to be 370C and optimum time was 15 minutes. The Km and V-max values of Spinacia oleracea was found to be 5 and 2.5 respectively by means of the double-reciprocal Lineweaver-Burk plot.<#LINE#>Warangkar S.C. and Khobragade C.N.

This study was designed to monitor the temperature on daily basis and check its effect on compost. The three readings were taken from different height 4ft and 1ft after proper mixing of heap by using Oxygen/Temperature meter. It was concluded that there was a variation observed in temperature profile of compost. The temperature was tend to increase at the initial stage of composting and then decreased at the end.<#LINE#>Suler D.J. and Finstein M.S.
