Resumo

Lambari, Astyanax bimaculatus, is an oviparous, multiple-spawning fish that is reproductively active throughout the year, which makes it promising for cultivation and research. This research histologically evaluates the ovaries of lambari that have undergone artificial spawning induced with pituitary extract (control group), and the effect of growth hormone at a dose of 2 mg/g body weight (treatment group) on the subsequent process of ovarian recovery. Ovaries of fish in both the control and treatments groups were collected at 120 hours after spawning and analyzed using optical microscopy to characterize the average quantities of: follicles in different stages of development, post-ovulatory follicles, follicular atresia and granulocytes. Quantity and morphology of early and advanced primary follicles did not differ between the treatment and control groups; an important and necessary factor for ovarian recovery for subsequent spawning. There was a greater amount of granulocytes in initial atresia in the group treated with growth hormone. These results demonstrated that the administration of growth hormone may potentiate the process of ovarian recovery after induced spawning.(AU)


O Lambari Astyanax bimaculatus é um peixe ovíparo de desova múltipla que é reprodutivamente ativo durante todo o ano, o que o torna promissor para cultivo e pesquisa. Este trabalho avalia histologicamente os ovários de lambaris submetidos à desova artificial, induzida pelo extrato hipofisário (grupo controle) e o efeito do hormônio de crescimento na concentração de 2 g/g de massa corporal (grupo tratamento) no subsequente processo de recuperação ovariana. Os ovários dos peixes dos grupos controle e tratamento foram coletados às 120 horas após a desova e analisados em microscopia óptica para caracterizar as quantidades médias de: folículos em diferentes estágios de desenvolvimento, folículos pós-ovulatórios, atresia folicular e granulócitos. A quantidade e a morfologia dos folículos primários iniciais e avançados não diferiram entre os grupos tratamento e controle; um fator importante e necessário para a recuperação dos ovários para posterior desova. Houve maior quantidade de granulócitos na atresia inicial no grupo tratado com hormônio de crescimento. Esses resultados demonstram que a administração do hormônio do crescimento pode potencializar o processo de recuperação ovariana após a desova induzida.(AU)

Resumo

The region around the municipality of Bastos, state of São Paulo, accounted for about 7% of Brazilian egg production in 2015. In 2012, it experienced a heat wave that resulted in the death of approximately 500,000 hens, according to information released at the time. Considering the impact of heat waves on layer mortality, the objective of this study was to analyze how heat waves impact the layer farming in the region of Bastos, considering the climate change scenarios forecasted by the IPCC for the next years. This study was conducted in three stages: i) analysis of the IPCC reports to understand climate change scenarios; ii) analysis of historical temperature data in the region of Bastos; iii) analysis of how climate change, through heat waves, may impact layer mortality in this region. All the IPCC scenarios indicate that both average temperature and the number of extreme events, such as heat waves, are expected to increase. Historical data showed that since the mid-1980s, maximum temperature has increased, as well as the frequency, intensity and duration of heat waves. The association of layer mortality due to heat waves with the IPCC climate change forecasts for that region indicates a trend of increasing layer mortality in egg production operations which sheds are not equipped with air conditioning.(AU)

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) and Banana flour (Musa cavendishii) on performance of laying hens. Fifty laying hens (3 months of age) were randomly distributed into five experimental groups, each consisting of 10 laying hens. The groups were control (10 laying hens); L6 (Leucaena, 6 g/day (10 laying hens)); L8 (Leucaena, 8.0 g/day (10 laying hens)); L10 (Leucaena, 10 g/day (10 laying hens)); and L12 (Leucaena, 12 g/day (10 laying hens)), in addition, five levels of Banana flour control (10 laying hens); 25% (10 laying hens); 50%, (10 laying hens); 75% (10 laying hens); and 100% (10 laying hens), were assessed respectively. The experimental period lasted from 4 to 8 weeks. The results of this study showed that there were no significant differences between of treatments L6, L8, L10, and L12 for body weight during the first 30 days compared with the control, whereas for weight gain, statistically significant differences were observed between the control compared with the treatments L6, L8, L10, and L12 for days 10, 20 and 30 (p<0.05). Additionally, statistically significant differences were found between different levels of Banana flour for weight gain (g) between the control with the levels 25, 50 75, 100%, respectively for days 20 and 30. In the case of feed intake (g) statistically significant differences were found during day 30 between the control and 100%, also between the control and levels 25, and 75%, respectively. From the results, it can be concluded that the inclusion of Leucaena and banana flour have effects on weight gain, body weight and feed intake of laying hens.(AU)

The objective of this work was to evaluate the productive performance and egg quality of semi-heavy laying hens fed a diet with different levels of barley bagasse. Ninety-six laying hens of the Hisex Brown lineage were used after forced molting. The birds were distributed in a completely randomized experimental design with four treatments, six replicates, and four birds per experimental unit. The treatments consisted of four levels of barley bagasse (0, 4, 8 and 12%) as corn substitute. The following variables were evaluated: feed intake (g/bird/day), egg production (%), egg weight (g), egg mass (g/bird/day), feed conversion ratio per egg mass (kg/kg) and per dozen eggs (kg/dz), specific gravity (g/cm3), weight and percentage of yolk (g and %), albumen (g and %) and shell (g and %), variation in body weight (g), and viability of birds (%). There was no effect (P>0.05) of treatments on the quality of the eggs. A quadratic effect (P<0.05) was observed for feed intake, with an estimated level of barley bagasse of 8.36% resulting in the lowest intake. There was a decreasing linear effect (P<0.01) for egg production and egg mass, and an increasing linear effect (P<0.05) for feed conversion per dozen eggs (kg/dz). The use of barley bagasse in the diet does not influence egg quality, but decreases the zootechnical performance of semi-heavy laying hens reared in a hot environment during the second laying cycle.


Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o desempenho produtivo e a qualidade de ovos de poedeiras semipesadas alimentadas com diferentes níveis de bagaço de cevada na ração. Foram utilizadas 96 poedeiras da linhagem Hisex Brown após a muda forçada. As aves foram distribuídas em delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos, seis repetições e quatro aves por unidade experimental. Os tratamentos foram constituídos por quatro níveis de bagaço de cevada (0; 4; 8 e 12%) em substituição ao milho. Foram avaliados: consumo de ração (g/ave/dia), produção de ovos (%), peso dos ovos (g), massa de ovos (g/ave/dia), conversão alimentar por massa (kg/kg) e por dúzia (kg/dz) de ovos, gravidade específica (g/cm3), peso e porcentagem de gema (g e %), albúmen (g e %) e casca (g e %), variação do peso corporal (g) e viabilidade das aves (%). Não houve efeito (P>0,05) dos tratamentos sobre a qualidade dos ovos. Houve efeito quadrático (P<0,05) para o consumo de ração, sendo estimado o nível de 8,36% de bagaço de cevada para o menor consumo. Verificou-se efeito linear (P<0,01) decrescente para a produção de ovos e massa de ovos, e efeito linear crescente (P<0,05) para a conversão alimentar por dúzia de ovos (kg/dz). O uso de bagaço de cevada na ração, não influencia a qualidade dos ovos, contudo diminui o desempenho zootécnico de poedeiras semipesadas criadas em clima quente, no segundo ciclo de postura.

Gastric obstructions in reptiles due to the ingestion of foreign bodies may be the result of inadequate nutritional management, stress or by mistake in food seizures. If it is difficult to diagnose the obstruction through radiography, the animal may die. This paper reports the case of a gastric obstruction by a cashew nut (Anacardium occidentale), occupying the entire lumen of the stomach in a female green iguana (Iguana iguana), of free life and in gestational period, identified only during necropsy.

The current study was conducted to determine the effects of the licorice root (Glycyrrhriza glabra) in laying hens diets on performance, egg cholesterol, some plasma parameters and antioxidant capacity. One hundred, 40-week old laying hens were divided into four groups, each group consisted of 25 hens and were placed in individual cages. The mean of the initial body weight of laying hens was 1829.18±9.595 g. Commercial laying hen diet was supplemented with 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% levels of licorice root powder and four different dietary groups were formed. From the experimental findings, it was ascertained that the licorice root supplementation had no significant effect on egg weight and feed conversion ratio (p>0.05), but feed consumption decreased with increasing licorice root (p<0.05).Egg yield was recorded as 88.94%, 89.56%, 86.82% and 85.02% in the groups of 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0, respectively (p<0.05).Plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) and egg yolk cholesterol level decreased with the addition of licorice root, while plasma high density lipoprotein (HDL) level was increased with licorice root addition (p<0.05). Licorice root addition had a positive effect on total antioxidant capacity (TAS) of plasma. It was determined that the total antioxidant capacity was increased by increasing amount of licorice root. From the overall findings, it can be concluded that licorice root could be used as a feed additive without any adverse effect on performance. It has been demonstrated that the licorice root enables the production of functional eggs.(AU)

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of specific gravity of eggs from broiler breeders of different ages in the yield of incubation and the weight of post-hatch chicks. Were used 3.072 eggs from two batches of broiler breeders, Cobb - 500®. The eggs were distributed a completely randomized design in a 2x4 factorial design with two broiler breeder ages (53 and 64 weeks) and four different egg densities (1.070, 1.075, 1.080, 1.085), totaling eight treatments and four replications (with 96 eggs per experimental unit). The evaluated variables were the egg weight (g), the hatching rate (%), the fertility rate (%), the weight loss of eggs during the incubation period (%) and the ratio of the weight of the chicks/egg weight (%). The results were submitted to analysis of variance, being that the effect of density was assessed by polynomial regression and the age effect of breeders by F test at 5% probability. Weight losses of eggs, except for the densities of 1,075 and 1,085, from breeders with 53 and 64 weeks of age, respectively, were within the values recommended in the literature. The chick weight was proportional to the weight of the egg, representing on average 68% and no differences between age and density of broiler breeders. The age of the breeders exerted influence on the yield of incubation, and the best results (p 0.05)(AU)

Os ovos foram distribuídos em delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2x4, com duas idades de matrizes (53 e 64 semanas) e quatro diferentes densidades (1.070, 1.075, 1.080, 1.085), totalizando oito tratamentos e quatro repetições (com 96 ovos por unidade experimental). As variáveis avaliadas foram o peso do ovo (g), a taxa de eclosão (%), a taxa de fertilidade (%), a perda de peso dos ovos durante o período de incubação (%) e a relação do peso dos pintos/peso dos ovos (%). Os resultados foram submetidos à análise de variância, sendo que o efeito das densidades foi avaliado por meio de regressão polinomial e o efeito da idade das matrizes pelo teste F, ao nível de 5% de probabilidade. As perdas de peso dos ovos, exceto para as densidades de 1.075 e 1.085, oriundos de matrizes com 53 e 64 semanas de idade, respectivamente, apresentaram-se dentro dos valores recomendados na literatura. O peso do pinto ao nascer foi proporcional ao peso do ovo, representando em média 68% e sem diferenças entre a idade das matrizes e as diferentes densidades.(AU)

Resumo

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos da suplementação das enzimas amilase, fitase e protease de formas isoladas e em associação, em dietas para codornas japonesas em postura. Foram utilizadas 300 codornas, distribuídas em um delineamento inteiramente ao acaso, com cinco tratamentos e seis repetições de dez aves por unidade experimental. Os tratamentos foram: uma dieta controle e dietas formuladas com a suplementação de 300 ppm de amilase, 300 ppm de protease e 500 FTU/kg de fitase e com a associação de enzimas. Nas fórmulas com inclusão de enzimas houve aplicação de redução na exigência nutricional de um ou mais dos seguintes componentes: proteína, aminoácidos digestíveis, energia, cálcio e fósforo, valorizando o uso das enzimas. As avaliações foram realizadas em quatro períodos de 21 dias cada. Foram avaliados desempenho (produção média de ovos, consumo de ração, peso médio dos ovos e conversão alimentar), qualidade dos ovos (proporção dos constituintes do ovo e peso específico dos ovos) e digestibilidade dos nutrientes da ração (coeficiente de metabolizabilidade aparente da matéria seca e da proteína bruta). Não houve efeito significativo dos tratamentos nas variáveis analisadas (P>0,05), indicando que as enzimas têm efeito benéfico, isoladamente ou em associação, mantendo o desempenho e qualidade dos ovos de codornas japonesas...


The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplementation of diets for laying Japanese quail with amylase, phytase and protease alone or in combination. Three-hundred quail were assigned to a completely randomized design consisting of five treatments and six repetitions, with 10 animals per experimental unit. The treatments were: a control diet and diets supplemented with 300 ppm amylase, 300 ppm protease and 500 phytase units (FTU)/kg and the combination of these enzymes. In the diets containing the enzymes, the nutritional requirements of one or more of the following components were reduced: protein, digestible amino acids, energy, calcium and phosphorus, giving priority to the use of enzymes. The evaluations were performed over four periods of 21 days each. Performance (mean egg production, feed intake, mean egg weight, and feed conversion), egg quality (proportion of egg constituents and specific egg weight), and dietary nutrient digestibility (apparent digestibility coefficient of dry matter and crude protein) were evaluated. There was no significant effect of the treatments on the variables analyzed (P>0.05), indicating that the enzymes, alone or in combination, have beneficial effects, maintaining performance and egg quality of Japanese quail...

Resumo

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos da suplementação das enzimas amilase, fitase e protease de formas isoladas e em associação, em dietas para codornas japonesas em postura. Foram utilizadas 300 codornas, distribuídas em um delineamento inteiramente ao acaso, com cinco tratamentos e seis repetições de dez aves por unidade experimental. Os tratamentos foram: uma dieta controle e dietas formuladas com a suplementação de 300 ppm de amilase, 300 ppm de protease e 500 FTU/kg de fitase e com a associação de enzimas. Nas fórmulas com inclusão de enzimas houve aplicação de redução na exigência nutricional de um ou mais dos seguintes componentes: proteína, aminoácidos digestíveis, energia, cálcio e fósforo, valorizando o uso das enzimas. As avaliações foram realizadas em quatro períodos de 21 dias cada. Foram avaliados desempenho (produção média de ovos, consumo de ração, peso médio dos ovos e conversão alimentar), qualidade dos ovos (proporção dos constituintes do ovo e peso específico dos ovos) e digestibilidade dos nutrientes da ração (coeficiente de metabolizabilidade aparente da matéria seca e da proteína bruta). Não houve efeito significativo dos tratamentos nas variáveis analisadas (P>0,05), indicando que as enzimas têm efeito benéfico, isoladamente ou em associação, mantendo o desempenho e qualidade dos ovos de codornas japonesas...(AU)

Resumo

The present study analyzed the sexual development, sizes at maturity and morphometric relationships for both sexes of Sympterygia acuta and S. bonapartii, endemic of south-western Atlantic Ocean. The examined specimens were obtained through research cruises and commercial fishing trips, during 2011 and 2012, along the southern Brazilian coast, in latitudes ranging from 34°28'S to 31°29'S and at depths between 15 and 142 m. Significant differences (p<0.05) in S. bonapartii and in S acuta between sexes for the relationships total length (cm) - disc width (cm) and total length - total/eviscerated weight (g) respectively, demonstrated sexual dimorphism during the development in both species. The estimated size at maturity for males and females, respectively, were 46.1 and 44.7 cm, for S. acuta, and 58.4 and 59.9 cm, for S. bonapartii. A decrease in size at maturity for both sexes was observed in S. acuta and females of S. bonapartii of the southern coast of Brazil, respect to previous studies carried out over the last 30 years.(AU)


O presente estudo analisou o desenvolvimento sexual, os tamanhos de maturidade e as relações morfométricas para ambos os sexos das espécies Sympterygia acuta e S. bonapartii endêmica do sudoeste do Oceano Atlântico. Os indivíduos foram coletados em cruzeiros de investigação e viagens de pesca comercial durante 2011 e 2012 ao longo da costa do Sul do Brasil em latitudes que variam de 34°28'S a 31° 29'S, e em profundidades entre 15 e 142 m. Houve diferenças significativas entre sexos para S. bonapartii (p <0,05) e S acuta nas relações comprimento total (cm) - largura do disco (cm) e comprimento - peso total e comprimento total - peso eviscerado (g), demonstrando dimorfismo sexual durante o desenvolvimento em ambas as espécies.Os tamanhos estimados de maturação para machos e fêmeas, respectivamente, foram iguais a 46,1 e 44,7 cm para S. acuta; e 58,4 e 59,9 cm para S. bonapartii. Uma diminuição nos tamanhos de maturidade para ambos os sexos foi observada em S. acuta e fêmeas de S. bonapartii da costa Sul do Brasil, com relação a estudos realizados há 30 anos.(AU)
