Abstract excerpt
The effect of varying combinations of dietary CP, at 16, 18, and 20%, with ME, at 2,900 and 3,100 kcal ME/kg, on BW and feed conversion (FC) at 2 to 6 wk of age for a three-breed cross was evaluated. Additionally, effect of genotypes at the pea comb (P) and endogenous viral element 1 (ev1) loci on dietary treatments were evaluated. Average weekly feed intake per bird varied from 25.6 to 32.6 g for birds on 16%...
