Ideal Ratios of Isoleucine, Methionine, Methionine Plus Cystine, Threonine, Tryptophan, and Valine Relative to Lysine for White Leghorn-Type Laying Hens of Twenty-Eight to Thirty-Four Weeks of Age

Ideal Ratios of Isoleucine, Methionine, Methionine Plus Cystine, Threonine, Tryptophan, and Valine Relative to Lysine for White Leghorn-Type Laying Hens of Twenty-Eight to Thirty-Four Weeks of Age.jpg
Seven separate experiments were conducted with Hy-Line W-36 hens to determine the ideal ratio of Arg, Ile, Met, Met+Cys, Thr, Trp, and Val relative to Lys for maximal egg mass. The experiments were conducted simultaneously and were each designed as a randomized complete block design with 60 experimental units (each consisting of 1 cage with 2 hens)…
