For a two-parameter family of lower triangular matrices with entries involving Jacobi polynomials an explicit inverse is given, with entries involving a sum of two Jacobi polynomials. The formula simplifies in the Gegenbauer case and then one choice of the parameter solves an open problem in a recent paper by Koelink, van Pruijssen & Román. The twoparameter family is closely related to two two-...

The presence of essential amino acids and low anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) in Moringa oleifera leaf meal (MOLM) designates it as a good source nutrients for poultry. This study investigated the effect dietary MOLM on growth performance, semen, hatchability traits day-old chick weight Potchefstroom Koekoek (PK) chickens. Two isonitrogenous isoenergetic diets were formulated by diluting basal ...

This study was conducted to examine the effects of feed restriction on production performance as well as traits relating to egg and carcass yield in Potchefstroom Koekoek dual purpose chicken bred under Ethiopian conditions. A total of 240 one-day-old dual purpose Koekoek chicks were randomly distributed into 12 experimental pens, representing 4 feeding treatments to evaluate the performance of...

In Ethiopia, chicken production plays an important role in providing human food consumption, growth of domestic products, and creating employment opportunities. Despite their importance, the reproduction performance chickens country is under expectation owing to gap between low productive indigenous adaptive ability highly breeds. By considering this, present paper aims deliver, synthesize, sum...

A study was conducted to compare the growth performance and carcass characteristics of guinea fowl (GF) with Horro (HR) Tilili (TL) local chickens, Potchefstroom Koekoek (PK) exotic chicken. Seventy-five-day-old chicks from each genotype were used in 3 replications a completely randomized design. Commercial starter grower feed fed ad libitum during 20 weeks study. Daily dry matter intake g/bird...

The active cysteine of papain was labeled with W-iodoacetate and the cystine residues were reduced and coupled with unlabeled iodoacetate. The heptacarboxymethyl papain was then maleylated and hydrolyzed with trypsin. Key peptides were isolated from this hydrolysate which have permitted completion of the amino acid sequence of the protein. Thus, an earlier tentative and incomplete version of th...

The objective of this study was to evaluate and demonstrate the production performance “Koekoek Potchefstroom” chickens in pastoral areas Hammer woreda. Twenty women pastorals from rural were purposely selected based on their interest construct chicken shelters or who had house access, rear exotic chickens, well-managing ability up-come all related challenges, enough time for cover required inp...
