The optimum threonine requirement in diets of juvenile hybrid grouper ( epinephelus fuscoguttatus ♀ × Epinephelus lanceolatus ♂ )

Abstract: A six‐week growth trial was conducted to evaluate the optimum threonine (Thr) requirement in diets of juvenile hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus ♀ × Epinephelus lanceolatus ♂). Six isoenergetic, isoproteic and isolipidic diets were formulated to contain 5.4, 7.5, 10.3, 11.5, 13.7 and 15.2 g/kg dry matter dietary Thr levels. Results showed that and fish fed 5.4 g/kg dietary Thr had the lowest weight gain percentage (WG%) or protein productive value (PPV) among all experimental treatments. Analysis by th… Show more

“…Weight gain in the fish body is primarily attributed to protein and fat deposition (Bureau et al, 2000), which leads to improvements in other growth parameters and better feed utilization in cultured animals, similar to the findings for Indian major carp (Abidi & Khan, 2008), blunt snout bream (Habte‐Tsion, Liua, et al, 2015), stinging catfish (Khan, 2017), hybrid catfish (Zhao et al, 2020) and largemouth bass (Rahman et al, 2021). No significant difference was observed by the supplementation of dietary threonine (Lei et al, 2021). Supplementing dietary threonine in grass carp resulted in increased growth (Dong et al, 2017), yet too much threonine in the diet was not favourable to better growth.…”

“…The experiment diets ( Table 1 ) were designed to have same crude protein (CP, 464.7 g/kg), crude lipid (CL, 70 g/kg), and gross energy (340 kcal/100 g dry matter), referring to previous studies [ 26 28 , 30 , 31 ]. The overall dietary amino acid contents ( Table 2 ) were adjusted accordingly based on our researches on the reference amino acid profile [ 24 ] and the optimum dietary requirements for leucine [ 25 ], methionine [ 27 ], arginine [ 28 ], and threonine [ 30 ]. Alanine was added as the substitute in diets with low Phe.…”

“…The well-ground fishmeal was used during the preparation, along with careful weighing of all the dry ingredients. Dietary preparation was conducted according to the reference methods in our previous study [ 30 ]. The bound CAAs was mixed with other dry ingredients and recoated with 229.6–233.7 g corn starch and another 10 g CMC for every 1,000 g dry matter, and then mixed with lipids and water for pelletization.…”

“…Experimental fish purchased from a local hatchery were firstly acclimated and then fed with the experimental diets for 7 weeks. The feeding procedure was the same as that described in our previous study (Lei et al, 2021). After acclimatization, experimental fish (average initial body weight: 14.30 ± 0.1 g per fish) were randomly distributed into tanks at a density of 12 fish per tank, and each dietary treatment had three replicates.…”
