“…The δ 13 C value in meat has been found to be closely related to the feeds composition, especially with the composition of C 3 and C 4 plant material (Bahar et al, 2005;Moreno-Rojas et al, 2008). In the present study, all δ 13 C values of the collected chicken samples ranged from −17.5‰ to −15.7‰, suggesting that the main component of feed was maize, a C 4 plant (Knobbe et al, 2006;Yanagi et al, 2012). The δ 13 C values of JX chicken samples were lower than those of samples from other locations due to the higher content of rice in the feeds of JX chicken, since these samples were obtained from JX province, one of the largest production locations of rice in China.…”

“…The crops used for the feeds are grown by applying chemical fertilizer, resulting in lower δ 15 N values from −3‰ to 3‰ in the plants that will be delivered to the animals by assimilation (Bahar et al, 2008;Kelly, Heaton, & Hoogewerff, 2005). In another aspect, the feeds containing pea and soybean utilize atmospheric nitrogen directly, leading to less positive values of δ 15 N (Heaton et al, 2008;Yanagi et al, 2012;Zhao et al, 2013). Both reasons mentioned above are responsible for the lowest value of δ 15 N appearing in JX chicken samples.…”

“…Chemical fertilizers lead to lower δ 15 N values in plant that will translocate to chicken feed, and appear in chicken. Moreover, foraging of leguminous plant or feeding of leguminous feed will decrease the δ 15 N values in chicken (Bateman et al 2005;Yanagi et al 2012;Zhao et al 2013Zhao et al , 2014. As the results shown in Fig.…”

“…For these types of studies incremental tissues such as hair, wool or hoof, which contain a record of changes of diet over time, are more useful. Recently, many authors have shown that δ 13 C values and δ 15 N and δ 13 C values can be used to track the feeding system of the animal through an examination of incremental tissues.…”
