Avian Disease Virus and Nutrition Relationships

II. Effect of Dietary Enzymes and Lysine on the Growth of White Leghorn Chicks Infected with Newcastle Disease Virus

Robert L. Squibb

Disease and Environmental Stress Laboratories, Rutgers—The State University, New Brunswick, New Jersey

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) involvement, in the immature White Leghorn cockerel, resulted in a greater growth depression when complete rations rather than those imbalanced by deficiencies of lysine were supplied.

Trypsin or amylase supplementation of a low-lysine diet resulted in increased growth of NDV-infected chicks. This phenomenon was observed, however, only when the experimental rations were deficient in lysine.

Manuscript received 30 December 1960.
