Abstract:

【Objective】The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of methionine supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, and plasma biochemical indices of growing Pekin ducks fed a low-energy and low-protein diet (maintaining a constant energy-to-protein ratio), and to determine the methionine requirement of Pekin ducks under such dietary conditions, so as to provide the data support for feeding low energy and low protein diet in meat duck industry. 【Method】Using one-factor completely random design, a total of 240 Pekin ducks, with similar weight (560.26 ± 3.82 g) at 15 days of age, were randomly divided into 5 groups, with 6 replicates per group and 8 ducks per replicate. The basal diet was formulated based on China’s Feeding Standard of Meat-Type Ducks, the ratio of metabolizable energy (ME: 12.56 MJ·kg-1) and crude protein (CP: 17.5%) of growing Pekin ducks (CP/ME: 13.9 g·MJ -1), a low-energy and low-protein corn-soybean meal diet (ME: 11.90 MJ·kg-1; CP: 16.6%) with a constant CP/ME was formulated as the experimental basal diet (methionine analyzed value of 0.287%). Ducks were fed diets that the basal diet supplemented 5 methionine levels (0, 0.075%, 0.15%, 0.225%, and 0.30%), respectively. The experiment lasted for 28 days. 【Result】(1) Compared with the non-supplemented group (Control group), the average body weight at 28, 35, and 42 days of age, and average daily weight gain and methionine intake at each period of Pekin ducks were significantly increased (P<0.05) as dietary methionine increased in low-energy and low-protein diet. Average daily feed intake during 15 to 28, 15 to 35, and 15 to 42 days of age exhibited linear increases (P<0.05) with dietary methionine supplementation. (2) The methionine supplementation in low-energy and low-protein diets increased the breast muscle percentage (P<0.05), while abdominal fat percentage linearly decreased (P<0.05) in 42-day-old Pekin ducks. No significant differences were observed on organ indices (P>0.05). (3) There was no significant effect on the biochemical indices in plasma of 42-day-old Pekin ducks (P>0.05), though albumin content showed a quadratic response (P<0.05), peaking at intermediate methionine levels in the low-energy, low-protein diet. (4) Based on the linear-broken line model, the methionine requirement of growing Pekin ducks fed low-energy and low-protein diets ranged from 0.349% to 0.362% for optimal growth performance, and 0.375% for optimal breast meat rate, respectively. 【Conclusion】Taken together, the dietary methionine supplementation could increase the growth performance and improve carcass traits of growing Pekin duck in low-energy and low-protein diets, and the methionine requirement of Pekin ducks in this diet ranged 0.35% to 0.38% for optimal growth performance and carcass traits.
