Protein Nitrogen

Total and soluble nitrogen, protein and non-protein -nitrogen was determined as well as the amino acid composition of the caryopses of ten rye varieties including three bred in Poland and cultivated on a commercial scale: 'Dańkowskie Złote', 'Dańkowskie Selekcyjne' and 'Borkowskie Tetra'. and seven foreign varieties characterized by a high total protein content (11.9-16.4% in dry weight). In the varieties examined the amount of protein nitrogen increased in the same degree as did the content of total nitrogen. The amino acids limiting the nutritive value of the protein in rye caryopses were mostly lysine and methionine, and in the varieties with high protein content tryptophan. The low-protein varieties had a relatively higher content of lysine, sulphur amino acids, tryptophan and other amino acids (as % of protein) than the high protein ones, but their absolute amino acid content (as % of dry weight) was lower.

Amino Acid Balance

Chicks fed diets containing 26% of protein had larger thyroid glands than did chicks fed diets containing 17.5% of protein. Thyroidal uptake of I131 per chick was also greater in the chicks fed the higher level of protein. The basal diets were deficient in methionine. Supplementation of the diets with lysine, which would aggravate the amino acid imbalance, significantly depressed thyroidal uptake of I131 per chick. It is concluded that the amino acid composition of dietary protein, as well as the protein level in the diet, affects thyroid activity in the chick.
