The Effect of Dietary Helianthus tuberosus L. on the Populations of Pig Faecal Bacteria and the Prevalence of Skatole
Original language description
Jerusalem artichoke contains inulin polysaccharide, which has prebiotic effects and influences the microbiota of the digestive tract. The addition of Jerusalem artichoke in boar diets may decrease the content of skatole and indole, which are the main constituents of boar taint, and may also negatively affect the taste and odor. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of Helianthus tuberosus L. (H. tuberosus) in feed mixtures on performance, carcass composition, the levels of microbiota in faecal samples, and the concentrations of skatole and indole in adipose tissue. The study was performed with 47 crossbred entire male pigs of the Large White sire (Large White dame Landrace) genotype fed a basal diet with 0, 4,1, 8,1 or 12,2 percent H. tuberosus for 13 days before slaughter. Significant differences in daily weight gain and daily feed intake were found, with the values being lower in the group with the highest level of H. tuberosus. In addition, increas
