Abstract
Selection for increased in vitro digestibility improves feeding value of sorghum grain (1991)
Highlights
Six cannulated barrows and two hundred eighty-eight chicks were used in an experiment to determine the value of an in vitro protein digestibility assay for identification of sorghum parent lines with improved nutritional value
Due to a limited supply of the sorghums, broiler chicks were used as a model to predict the value of the experimental sorghums for growth performance
The sorghums that had consistently high in vitro digestibility were of greater nutritional value to pigs and growing chicks than sorghums with low in vitro digestibility
