Smith, A.H.Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Wallig, M.A.Mackie, R.I.[Evaluation of palatability and toxicity of Acacia angustssima using a rat bioassay]Evaluation of palatability and toxicity of Acacia angustssima using a rat bioassay

Inadequate nutrition is the main cause of low productivity of livestock in sub-Saharan Africa. The primary feed resources include fodder trees, natural pastures and crop residues. This paper presents results from studies conducted at ILRI in evaluations of these resources. The effect of supplemen...

Smith, A.H.Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Mackie, R.I.[Biotransformation of anti-nutritional factors by rumen microbiota]Biotransformation of anti-nutritional factors by rumen microbiota

There are conflicting Reports in the literature about the benefits of defaunation, the removal of ciliate protozoa from the rumen, in ruminant production. Ciliate protozoa are not essential for proper functioning of the rumen nor for the life of the host and that their contribution to microbial p...


Teferedegne, B.Osuji, P.O.Odenyo, A.A.Wallace, R.J.Newbold, C.J.[Effect of defaunation on utilisation of poor quality tropical feed by sheep]Effect of defaunation on utilisation of poor quality tropical feed by sheep

Foliage from the tropical leguminous tree, Sesbania sesban, is toxic to rumen protozoa in vitro, due to materials present in a saponins-containing extract of the foliage (Newbold et al 1997). Suppression of protozoal numbers in vivo when S. sesban is added to the diet is either transient or non-e...
