Effect of seaweed (Ecklonia maxima) on apparent nutrient digestibility, growth performance, and physiological and meat quality parameters in Boschveld cockerels. Poult Sci 2022; 102:102361. [PMID: 36512874 PMCID: PMC9763683 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2022.102361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite being touted as a rich source of nutrients and functional bioactive compounds, the amount of brown seaweed (Ecklonia maxima) that can be included in diets of Boschveld indigenous chickens is unknown. This study, therefore, investigated the effect of feeding graded levels of brown seaweed meal (BSM) on apparent nutrient digestibility, growth performance, and physiological and meat quality parameters in Boschveld cockerels. A total of 225, five-wk-old Boschveld cockerels (316.4 ± 23.01 g live weight) were raised on 5 isoenergetic and isonitrogenous experimental diets formulated by incorporating BSM in a standard grower diet at a concentration of 0 (BSM0), 20 (BSM2), 40 (BSM4), 60 (BSM6), and 80 g/kg (BSM8). Feeding graded levels of dietary BSM induced neither quadratic nor linear effects (P > 0.05) on apparent nutrient digestibility, growth performance, hematological parameters, and meat quality characteristics in Boschveld cockerels. However, it resulted in linear increases for overall feed intake (R2 = 0.397; P = 0.021), ceca weight (R2 = 0.417; P = 0.013), duodenum length (R2 = 0.537; P = 0.04), and small intestine length (R2 = 0.305; P = 0.041). Negative quadratic responses were recorded for alanine aminotransferase (R2 = 0.530; P = 0.0009) and ileum length (R2 = 0.457; P = 0.045) as BSM levels increased. In conclusion, dietary inclusion of BSM improved feed intake and some internal organ sizes, altered alanine transaminase levels, but had no significant effect on apparent nutrient digestibility, growth performance, and carcass and meat quality attributes of Boschveld indigenous cockerels.

Data Mining as a Tool to Infer Chicken Carcass and Meat Cut Quality from Autochthonous Genotypes. Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12192702. [PMID: 36230442 PMCID: PMC9559234 DOI: 10.3390/ani12192702] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The present research aims to develop a carcass quality characterization methodology for minority chicken populations. The clustering patterns described across local chicken genotypes by the meat cuts from the carcass were evaluated via a comprehensive meta-analysis of ninety-one research documents published over the last 20 years. These documents characterized the meat quality of native chicken breeds. After the evaluation of their contents, thirty-nine variables were identified. Variables were sorted into eight clusters as follows; weight-related traits, water-holding capacity, colour-related traits, histological properties, texture-related traits, pH, content of flavour-related nucleotides, and gross nutrients. Multicollinearity analyses (VIF ≤ 5) were run to discard redundancies. Chicken sex, firmness, chewiness, L* meat 72 h post-mortem, a* meat 72 h post-mortem, b* meat 72 h post-mortem, and pH 72 h post-mortem were deemed redundant and discarded from the study. Data-mining chi-squared automatic interaction detection (CHAID)-based algorithms were used to develop a decision-tree-validated tool. Certain variables such as carcass/cut weight, pH, carcass yield, slaughter age, protein, cold weight, and L* meat reported a high explanatory potential. These outcomes act as a reference guide to be followed when designing studies of carcass quality-related traits in local native breeds and market commercialization strategies.

Foods 2022; 11:foods11121700.

Abstract
The present research aimed to determine the differential clustering patterns of carcass and meat quality traits in local chicken breeds from around the world and to develop a method to productively characterize minority bird populations. For this, a comprehensive meta-analysis of 91 research documents that dealt with the study of chicken local breeds through the last 20 years was performed. Thirty-nine traits were sorted into the following clusters: weight-related traits, histological properties, pH, color traits, water-holding capacity, texture-related traits, flavor content-related nucleotides, and gross nutrients. Multicollinearity problems reported for pH 72 h post mortem, L* meat 72 h post mortem, a* meat 72 h post mortem, sex, firmness, and chewiness, were thus discarded from further analyses (VIF < 5). Data-mining cross-validation and chi-squared automatic interaction detection (CHAID) decision tree development allowed us to detect similarities across genotypes. Easily collectable trait, such as shear force, muscle fiber diameter, carcass/pieces weight, and pH, presented high explanatory potential of breed variability. Hence, the aforementioned variables must be considered in the experimental methodology of characterization of carcass and meat from native genotypes. This research enables the characterization of local chicken populations to satisfy the needs of specific commercial niches for poultry meat consumers.
