Datasets of shotgun metagenomics evaluation of rumen microbiota of South African mutton merino sheep Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Van Marle-Koster, Este; Hassen, Abubeker; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi (Elsevier, 2023-12)The rumen microbial consortium plays a crucial role in the production performance and health of the ruminant animal. They are responsible for breaking down complex plant materials such as cellulose and hemicellulose to ...

Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker; Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa (MDPI, 2019-10-25)Tannins have become important phytochemicals in ruminant production, due to their wide range of biological activities. The use of a crude extract often comes with limitations, such as reduced feed intake and fibre ...

Du Preez, Danah A.; Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker (MDPI, 2023-11-14)Plant secondary compounds are potential rumen modifiers that can improve nutrient utilization in ruminant animals. This study evaluated the effect of Moringa (Moringa oleifera) and Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf extracts ...
-
Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker (South African Society for Animal Science, 2017-02-06)The potential of dietary nitrate to reduce enteric methane, apart from it being a source of rumen-degradable nitrogen, has stimulated further research into its use. However, not much has been reported on its suitability ...

Solomon, H.S.; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Nkukwana, Thobela T. (Canadian Science Publishing, 2022-09)A total of 2340 as-hatched Cobb500 chicks were allocated to 9 treatments, each with 13 replicate pens to evaluate the effects of either three phytase enzymes in a P-deficient diet. Starter and finisher diets consisted of ...

Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Hassen, Abubeker; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi (MDPI Publishing, 2020-01-16)Natural compounds such as plant secondary metabolites (PSM) can be used to replace antibiotic growth promoters as rumen modifiers. In this study, the effectiveness of stored and freshly extracted Aloe vera (AV), ...

Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Hassen, Abubeker; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi (MDPI, 2020-09)Medicinal plants have been found to be effective in a wide range of applications in ruminant animals. However, some plant extracts may be toxic to animals, depending on their seconday metabolite composition and dose, and ...

Hassen, Abubeker; Theart, J.J.F.; Van Niekerk, Willem A.; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute) (CSIRO, 2016-02)An in vitro gas production study was conducted to evaluate the potential of six browse species (high, medium and low condensed tannin concentrations) collected from the Kalahari Desert as antimethanogenic additives to an ...
-
Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker (Pakistan Agricultural Scientist's Forum, 2018)Urea treatment of protein deficient feeds serve as a source of ammonia nitrogen supply for rumen fermentation. This study was undertaken with the objective of determining the effect of treating Eragrostis curvula hay with ...

Sanni, Toibudeen Adesegun; Jesuyon, Oluwatosin Mawunapn Adegoke; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Baiyeri, Samuel Olorunfemi; Boluwaji, Oluwapelumi Victoria; Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Hassen, Abubeker (Sociedade Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020)This study evaluated the potential utilisation of African yam bean (AYB) seed as a supplement to Guinea grass on in vitro gas and methane (CH4) production, as well as the effect of processing on AYB nutritive value. In ...

Moyo, Robin Mkhokheli; Van Niekerk, Willem A.; Hassen, Abubeker; Du Toit, Cornelius Jacobus Lindeque; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi (Escola Superior de Agricultura, 2022)The high moisture content of wet distillers’ grains with solubles (WDGS) has limited its feeding value despite the relatively high nutritive value. The co–ensiling with whole–plant maize, as a complementary feed, was ...
-
Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker; Thantsha, Mapitsi Silvester (Public Library of Science, 2018-10-25)Tannin extracts have wide biological activity in ruminant nutrition. The possibility of masking their bitter taste and enhancing sustained release in the rumen can be achieved through encapsulation. The objectives of ...

Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Hassen, Abubeker; Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Morgavi, Diego P. (Elsevier, 2020-01)This study investigated the effect of urea or calcium nitrate with or without the inclusion of Acacia tannin extract on dry matter intake, nutrient digestibility, growth performance, and methane emission in growing lambs. ...

Nel, Tertio Christo; Hassen, Abubeker; Akanmu, Abiodun Mayowa; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi (South African Society for Animal Science, 2020-10-26)Exogenous enzymes and essential oils (EOs) have both improved fibre digestion in ruminants, but the effect on ruminal fermentation and methane emission of combining these additives requires further evaluation. Various EOs ...
