Effect of methionine:lysine ratio on growth performance and blood metabolites of growing-finishing pigs
Eighty growing-finishing pigs (40 barrows
and 40 gilts) were used in three consecutive growth assays to determine the optimum methionine:lysine ratio for pigs weighing from 48 to 107 lb, 120 to 179 lb, and 191 to 245 lb, respectively. Each growth assay was to be conducted for a 28-d period with a 14-d transition period between assays. Pigs were allotted by weight and placed in pens each containing one barrow and one gilt. Pigs were assigned to one of eight experimental treatments with five replicate pens per treatment. Pigs were fed diets containing either high lysine (1.0, .9, or .8%, respectively) or low lysine (.8,
.7, or .6%, respectively) with dietary methionine at 24.5, 28, 31.5, or 35% of lysine. This would correspond to total sulfur-containing amino acids (methionine + cystine) of 49, 56, 63, and 70% relative to lysine. During the first study (48 to 107 lb), average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), and feed efficiency (F/G)
improved with increasing dietary lysine.
Although no differences occurred in growth
performance with increasing methionine ratio,
there was a numeric improvement in growth performance for those pigs receiving
diets containing 28% methionine relative to
lysine. A lysine × methionine interaction
was observed for blood urea N with pigs
having the lowest BUN values observed
with methionine at 24.5 and 31.5% of
lysine for pigs fed .8 and 1.0% lysine, respectively. During phase II (120 lb to 179
lb), ADG improved with increasing dietary
lysine and showed a linear response to increasing methionine ratio. Feed efficiency
was also improved with increasing dietary
lysine. For the third phase (191 to 245 lb),
ADG also improved with increasing dietary
lysine. There were no significant differences
in feed intake; however, feed efficiency
improved with increasing dietary lysine. In summary, because of high ADFI observed in these studies, the dietary methionine
levels used closely met or exceeded the pig's requirement on a grams/day basis.
Therefore, these data suggest that increasing
dietary methionine does not improve pig
performance
Influence of dietary lysine on growth performance of high-lean growth gilts fed from 160 to 300 lb
One-hundred eight high-lean growth gilts (159.6 lb) were used to determine the
dietary lysine requirement to optimize
growth performance from 160 to 300 lb.
The experiment was designed as a randomized
complete block, with initial weight serving as the blocking factor. Six dietary treatments were used, ranging from .44 to
.94% digestible lysine (.59 to 1.16% total
lysine). Pigs were housed in pens of three,
with six replicate pens/treatment. Pig
weights and feed disappearance were collected
weekly to calculate average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), and feed efficiency (F/G). Average daily gain increased from 160 to 230 lb, from 230 to 300 lb, and from 160 to 300 lb. Average daily feed intake was not influenced by dietary treatment. The gilts consumed 6.47, 6.65, and 6.56 lb/day from 160 to 230, from 230 to 300, and from 160 to 300 lb, respectively. Thus, F/G improved linearly from 160 to 230 lb and quadratically from 230 to 300 and from 160 to 300 lb as a function of increased ADG. Lysine intake was increased linearly for all three weight periods as digestible lysine increased in the diet. The data from this experiment suggest that high-lean growth gilts requires at least 26 g/d of lysine from 160 to 230 and from 230 to 300 lb. Thus, matching nutrition with genetics is essential to optimize both rate and efficiency of gain
