“…Oocysts released in the faeces (non-sporulated) are not pathogenic, whereas if environmental conditions are available from moisture and temperature, they will be invasive and able to infect the birds (López-Osorio et al, 2020). Feeding a portion of soluble and insoluble fibre in poultry feed may lead to enhance the gut health (Alshelmani et al, 2021).…”

Pigeon coccidiosis is caused by Eimeria spp; a protozoan parasite which limits birds’ productivity by causing severe illness. The current study was carried out to investigate the prevalence of coccidiosis on domestic pigeon in Libya. Intestinal contents of 100 pigeons (Columba livia domestica Gmelin, 1789) were collected within a period of five months; January to May 2020. The intestinal content was examined to detect of coccidian oocysts infection on the randomly selected birds. A total of 100 faecal samples were investigated with two methods;Willis-Schaafs (qualitative) and McMaster’s (quantitative). The results obtained showed that the number of infected Pigeons was 72 pigeons (72%) of the total number of Pigeons. The prevalence was higher in female than that of males, where the total of infected females was 50 (69.4 %) and infected males was 22 (30.6%). The results showed that the highest incidence of Eimeria labbeana was observed in the young pigeons than that of adults, where the total number of young pigeons was 66 (91.7 %), and adult pigeon was 6 (8.3 %).

“…Abdominal fat deposits on the body of broilers are influenced by several factors, namely genetics, nutrition, sex, age of chickens, and environmental factors [33]- [35]. Genetically, native chickens do not contain a lot of body fat; even [35] states that native chickens have a shallow abdominal fat content.…”

Shrimp waste contains protein that binds to chitin and is difficult to digest by poultry, so it is necessary to carry out a fermentation process using Bacillus licheniformis, Lactobacillus sp., and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This study was conducted to determine the Effect of using fermented shrimp waste products that resulted in the optimal conversion of meat protein, carcass weight, and abdominal fat in native chickens. The method used was a completely randomized design with five feed treatments, namely, feed without fermented shrimp waste (R0), feed fermented shrimp waste with 5% (R1), 10% (R2), 15% (R3), and 20% (R4). Experimental feed was given to 125 native chickens, divided into 25-unit cages, and reared up to 8 weeks of age. The observed variables were feed and meat protein conversion, carcass weight, and abdominal fat weight. The study results concluded that fermented shrimp waste did not affect the value of meat protein conversion and abdominal fat weight. The use of 5-10% fermented shrimp waste in feed produces optimal native chicken carcass weight.

“…Solid-state fermentation of feed by bacteria with cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic activity can reduce insoluble dietary fiber contents and increase growth performance on swine (Liu et al 2017). The addition of exogenous fiber hydrolyzing enzymes such as cellulose and hemicellulase as supplement can improve the feed's nutritional value and digestibility (Zamani et al 2017;Alshelmani et al 2021).…”

Abstract. Sari SLA, Triyanto T, Zuprifal Z, Prijambada ID. 2021. Cellulolytic and mannanolytic aerobic bacteria isolated from Buffalo rumen (Bubalus babalis) and its potency to degrade fiber in palm kernel meal. Biodiversitas 22: 2829-2837. Palm kernel meal (PKM) is potential to be used as feed, but its high fiber content causes PKM meal difficult to be digested by monogastric animals. Ruminants are especially effective in digesting plant fibers because of the presence of microbes in their rumens. Based on those facts, this research was conducted to obtain mannanolytic and cellulolytic bacteria from buffalo rumens (Bubalus babalis, Linnaeus, 1758), which can degrade fibers in PKM. Bacteria were isolated from buffalo rumen by using PKM- isolation media. Screening of hydrolytic activities was done based on clear zone formation on screening media. A total of five bacterial isolates with the highest hydrolytic activities were then assayed quantitatively for their abilities to degrade mannan and cellulose, then identified based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. This research successfully isolated 34 bacterial isolates. The screening result demonstrated that all isolates could hydrolyze mannan, cellulose and polysaccharide in PKM. Isolate BR25 showed the highest hydrolytic ability on PKM and mannan screening media with clear zone diameter/colony diameter ratio (dz/dc ratio) of 2.99 and 3.53, respectively. Isolate BR31 showed the highest cellulolytic ability with dz/dc ratio value of 2.22. Five isolates with the highest hydrolytic activity, i.e. BR14, BR16, BR23, BR25, and BR30 showed the ability to grow on submerged media which contain locust bean gum (LBG) and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) respectively, as single carbon source and isolate BR25 showed the highest ability to degrade mannan and cellulose. Based on the gene sequence of 16S rRNA, isolates BR14, BR16, BR23, BR25, and BR30 were identified to be closely related to Exiguobacterium acetylicum, Bacillus cereus, Klebsiella quasipneumoniae, Paenibacillus polymyxa, and Acinetobacter baumannii with 98.57-100% level of similarity.
