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

The effect of five multipurpose trees (MPTs), Acacia angustissima, Acacia saligna, Chamae-cytisus palmensis, Leucaena pallida and Sesbania sesban on ciliate protozoa was investigated in rumen cannulated Ethiopian sheeBoth entodiniomorphs and holotrichs were counted. The protozoa counts from S. se...


Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Karanfil, O.[Effect of multipurpose tree (MPT) supplements on ruminal ciliate protozoa]Effect of multipurpose tree (MPT) supplements on ruminal ciliate protozoa

Supplementation of basal diets with multipurpose trees (MPTs) increases essential nutrients available to rumen microbes, increases rate of passage of particulate matter by 23-53 percent and of liquid matter by 9-43 percent. Supplementing teff straw with graded levels of cowpea or lablab significa...


Osuji, P.O.Odenyo, A.A.[The role of legume forages as supplements to low quality roughages - ILRI experience]The role of legume forages as supplements to low quality roughages - ILRI experience

This study was aimed at evaluating (1) the dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) degradabilities (by sheep) of Sesbania sesban leaves, Acacia albida (Faidhabia albida), A. siberiana and a. tortilis fruits and (2) the effect of feeding a mixture of oilseed cake and tanniferous browses on the degradabil...


Nsahlai, I.V.Osuji, P.O.Umunna, N.N.[The degradability by sheep of fruits of acacias and leaves of Sesbania sesban and the effects of supplementation with mixtures of browses and oilseed cake on the utilization of teff (Eragrostis tef) straw]The degradability by sheep of fruits of acacias and leaves of Sesbania sesban and the effects of supplementation with mixtures of browses and oilseed cake on the utilization of teff (Eragrostis tef) straw

This study evaluated the synergism between oilseed (50:50 noug (Guizotia abyssinica) and groundnut) cake (OSC) and tanniferous feeds (pods of Acacia albida and Sesbania sesban leaves) in two experiments. S. sesban has a lower content of soluble phenolics than A. albida pods (196 vs. 270 g/kg). Di...


Nsahlai, I.V.Umunna, N.N.Osuji, P.O.[Influence of feeding sheep on oilseed cake following the consumption of tanniferous feeds]Influence of feeding sheep on oilseed cake following the consumption of tanniferous feeds

The rumen degradation and gas production characteristics (methane, carbondioxide) of leaves of 20 accessions of multipurpose trees (MPTs) from six genera: Acacia, Cajanus, Chamaecytisus Link, Erythrina, Leaucaena and Sesbania and some poisonous plants were investigated in vitro and in sacco in ru...
