Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish high-quality papers on poultry nutrition and the inter-relations between nutrition, metabolism, gut microflora, and poultry performance. Therefore, I invite the submission of recent findings, in the form of original research articles or reviews, on poultry nutrition in such areas as:
- the nutrient requirements of poultry;
- the impact of dietary fibre on poultry health and performance;
- the use of feed additives to improve gut microflora and performance;
- the effect of feeding on poultry meat end egg quality;
- assessing factors that cause variation in feed ingredients used in poultry diets;
- alternative feed ingredients for use in poultry feed formulations;
- the influence of gastrointestinal pH on nutrient bioavailability and the intestinal microbiota in poultry;
- evaluating phytate and xylan ‘susceptibility’ to the effects of enzymes;
- assessing factors that influence reactivity and enzyme efficacy;and
- developing in vitro models to determine the digestibility of poultry diets.
