This study was conducted to evaluate chemical composition, nitrogen-corrected true metabolizable energy (TMEn) and true amino acids digestibility of corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) produced in China. Twenty five sources of corn DDGS was collected from 8 provinces of China. A precision-fed rooster assay was used to determine TMEn and amino acids digestibility with 35 adult cece...

for their nutritional content. The metabolizable energy of the samples (nitrogen corrected) could be predicted fairly accurately from the ash and protein 'contents of the ingredients. PBPM samples of relatively high and low qualities were incorporated into corn and soybean meal-based diets at the 5% level on an isoenergetic and isonitrogenous basis. Significant differences in chick growth or fe...

Benning(M) and Benning(MGH) are near-isogenic lines (NILs) of the soybean cultivar Benning, which contain insect-resistance quantitative trait loci (QTLs) from the soybean accession PI 229358. Benning(M) contains QTL-M, which confers antibiosis and antixenosis. In addition to QTL-M, Benning(MGH) contains QTL-G, which confers antibiosis, and QTL-H, which confers antixenosis. Soybean meal was pro...
