Abstract: Identifying the environmental drivers of variation in fitness-related traits is a central objective in ecology and evolutionary biology. Temporal fluctuations of these environmental drivers are often synchronized at large spatial scales. Yet, whether synchronous environmental conditions can generate spatial synchrony in fitness-related trait values (i.e., correlated temporal trait fluctuations across populations) is poorly understood. Using data from long-term monitored populations of blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus, n = 31), great tits (Parus major, n = 35), and pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca, n = 20) across Europe, we assessed the influence of two local climatic variables (mean temperature and mean precipitation in February-May) on spatial synchrony in three fitness-related traits: laying date, clutch size, and fledgling number. We found a high degree of spatial synchrony in laying date but a lower degree in clutch size and fledgling number for each species. Temperature strongly influenced spatial synchrony in laying date for resident blue tits and great tits but not for migratory pied flycatchers. This is a relevant finding in the context of environmental impacts on populations because spatial synchrony in fitness-related trait values among populations may influence fluctuations in vital rates or population abundances. If environmentally induced spatial synchrony in fitness-related traits increases the spatial synchrony in vital rates or population abundances, this will ultimately increase the risk of extinction for populations and species. Assessing how environmental conditions influence spatiotemporal variation in trait values improves our mechanistic understanding of environmental impacts on populations.

Abstract: The phenology of many species shows strong sensitivity to climate change; however, with few large scale intra-specific studies it is unclear how such sensitivity varies over a species’ range. We document large intra-specific variation in phenological sensitivity to temperature using laying date information from 67 populations of two co-familial European songbirds, the great tit (Parus major) and blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus), covering a large part of their breeding range. Populations inhabiting deciduous habitats showed stronger phenological sensitivity than those in evergreen and mixed habitats. However, populations with higher sensitivity tended to have experienced less rapid change in climate over the past decades, such that populations with high phenological sensitivity will not necessarily exhibit the strongest phenological advancement. Our results show that to effectively assess the impact of climate change on phenology across a species’ range it will be necessary to account for intra-specific variation in phenological sensitivity, climate change exposure, and the ecological characteristics of a population.

Abstract: We studied the relationship between temperature and the coexistence of great tit Parus major and blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus, breeding in 75 study plots across Europe and North Africa. We expected an advance in laying date and a reduction in clutch size during warmer springs as a general response to climate warming and a delay in laying date and a reduction in clutch size during warmer winters due to density-dependent effects. As expected, as spring temperature increases laying date advances and as winter temperature increases clutch size is reduced in both species. Density of great tit affected the relationship between winter temperature and laying date in great and blue tit. Specifically, as density of great tit increased and temperature in winter increased both species started to reproduce later. Density of blue tit affected the relationship between spring temperature and blue and great tit laying date. Thus, both species start to reproduce earlier with increasing spring temperature as density of blue tit increases, which was not an expected outcome, since we expected that increasing spring temperature should advance laying date, while increasing density should delay it cancelling each other out. Climate warming and its interaction with density affects clutch size of great tits but not of blue tits. As predicted, great tit clutch size is reduced more with density of blue tits as temperature in winter increases. The relationship between spring temperature and density on clutch size of great tits depends on whether the increase is in density of great tit or blue tit. Therefore, an increase in temperature negatively affected the coexistence of blue and great tits differently in both species. Thus, blue tit clutch size was unaffected by the interaction effect of density with temperature, while great tit clutch size was affected in multiple ways by these interactions terms.

Abstract: * Secondary hole-nesting birds that do not construct nest holes themselves and hence regularly breed in nest boxes constitute important model systems for field studies in many biological disciplines with hundreds of scientists and amateurs involved. Those research groups are spread over wide geographic areas that experience considerable variation in environmental conditions, and researchers provide nest boxes of varying designs that may inadvertently introduce spatial and temporal variation in reproductive parameters. * We quantified the relationship between mean clutch size and nest box size and material after controlling for a range of environmental variables in four of the most widely used model species in the Western Palaearctic: great tit Parus major, blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus, pied flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuca and collared flycatcher F. albicollis from 365 populations and 79 610 clutches. * Nest floor area and nest box material varied non-randomly across latitudes and longitudes, showing that scientists did not adopt a random box design. Clutch size increased with nest floor area in great tits, but not in blue tits and flycatchers. Clutch size of blue tits was larger in wooden than in concrete nest boxes. * These findings demonstrate that the size of nest boxes and material used to construct nest boxes can differentially affect clutch size in different species. The findings also suggest that the nest box design may affect not only focal species, but also indirectly other species through the effects of nest box design on productivity and therefore potentially population density and hence interspecific competition.

13. The design of artificial nestboxes for the study of secondary hole-nesting birds: A review of methodological inconsistencies and potential biases

Abstract: The widespread use of artificial nestboxes has led to significant advances in our knowledge of the ecology, behaviour and physiology of cavity nesting birds, especially small passerines. Nestboxes have made it easier to perform routine monitoring and experimental manipulation of eggs or nestlings, and also repeatedly to capture, identify and manipulate the parents. However, when comparing results across study sites the use of nestboxes may also introduce a potentially significant confounding variable in the form of differences in nestbox design amongst studies, such as their physical dimensions, placement height, and the way in which they are constructed and maintained. However, the use of nestboxes may also introduce an unconsidered and potentially significant confounding variable due to differences in nestbox design amongst studies, such as their physical dimensions, placement height, and the way in which they are constructed and maintained. Here we review to what extent the characteristics of artificial nestboxes (e.g. size, shape, construction material, colour) are documented in the 'methods' sections of publications involving hole-nesting passerine birds using natural or excavated cavities or artificial nestboxes for reproduction and roosting. Despite explicit previous recommendations that authors describe in detail the characteristics of the nestboxes used, we found that the description of nestbox characteristics in most recent publications remains poor and insufficient. We therefore list the types of descriptive data that should be included in the methods sections of relevant manuscripts and justify this by discussing how variation in nestbox characteristics can affect or confound conclusions from nestbox studies. We also propose several recommendations to improve the reliability and usefulness of research based on long-term studies of any secondary hole-nesting species using artificial nestboxes for breeding or roosting.

14. Implementation of in-line infrared monitor in full-scale anaerobic digestion process.

Abstract: During start up but also during normal operation, anaerobic reactor systems should be run and monitored carefully to secure trouble-free operation, because the process is vulnerable to disturbances such as temporary overloading, biomass wash out and influent toxicity. The present method of monitoring is usually by manual sampling and subsequent laboratory analysis. Data collection, processing and feedback to system operation is manual and ad hoc, and involves high-level operator skills and attention. As a result, systems tend to be designed at relatively conservative design loading rates resulting in significant over-sizing of reactors and thus increased systems cost. It is therefore desirable to have on-line and continuous access to performance data on influent and effluent quality. Relevant variables to indicate process performance include VFA, COD, alkalinity, sulphate, and, if aerobic post-treatment is considered, total nitrogen, ammonia and nitrate. Recently, mid-IR spectrometry was demonstrated on a pilot scale to be suitable for in-line simultaneous measurement of these variables. This paper describes a full-scale application of the technique to test its ability to monitor continuously and without human intervention the above variables simultaneously in two process streams. For VFA, COD, sulphate, ammonium and TKN good agreement was obtained between in-line and manual measurements. During a period of six months the in-line measurements had to be interrupted several times because of clogging. It appeared that the sample pre-treatment unit was not able to cope with high solids concentrations all the time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subjects: ANAEROBIC digestion, BIOLOGICAL nutrient removal, SEWAGE sludge digestion, BIOTECHNOLOGICAL process monitoring, TOXICITY testing, INDUSTRIAL wastes, BIOREACTORS
Abstract: This paper details a dynamic evaluation of a 1 m³ fixed bed anaerobic digestion reactor in response to organic overloads and toxicant shock loads. Raw industrial wine distillery wastewater was used as a reference substrate and several disturbances were applied to the process: (i) organic overloads with and without pH regulation in the feeding line, (ii) adding of ammonia in the input wastewater. The purpose of this study was to assess, using on-line instrumentation, the robustness of a fixed bed anaerobic digester. Anaerobic digestion processes have the reputation of being difficult to operate and prone to process instability due to external disturbances and the objective of this study was to demonstrate the possibility of such a reactor configuration for industrial use.

16. Automatic control of volatile fatty acids in anaerobic digestion using a fuzzy logic based approach.

Abstract: A control law based on fuzzy logic was developed and validated for an anaerobic wastewater treatment process. The controlled variable was the concentration of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in the reactor and the manipulated variable was the input flow rate. In order to use it as the input of the fuzzy sets, the controlled variable was treated using an algorithm of interpolation, extrapolation and filtering. The treatment of VFA values attempted to anticipate the behaviour of the variable and to avoid the inherent delay of the response, associated to the time constant of the system. Furthermore, the controlled variable derivative was used as a second input of the fuzzy sets to increase or decrease the speed of the control action. The control law was applied to a 0.948 m³ fixed-bed anaerobic reactor treating raw and diluted (1:2) industrial distillery vinasses. The validation was performed establishing different transient states between different set points in the range of 0.8 and 1.8 g VFA/l and different concentrations of the influent. The control law proved to be reliable supplying an adequate control action in terms of amplitude and velocity to achieve the desired set point for different types of perturbation and control purposes.

Subjects: WASTEWATER treatment, DIGESTION, MATHEMATICAL models, WINES
Abstract: In this paper, we present a hybrid approach that uses both fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks for on-line detection and analysis of problems occurring in a 120 liter anaerobic digestion fluidized bed reactor for the treatment of wine distillery wastewater. The raw data available on the process (i.e., pH, temperature, recirculation flow rate, input flow rate and gas flow rate) are preprocessed using fuzzy logic to build a vector of features (i.e., a pattern vector). Thisfeature vector is classified into a prespecified category (i.e., a class) which is a state of the system, according to discrimination fuzzy rules. An artificial neural network is then used to classify the process states and to identify the faulty or dangerous ones. This approach was developed to handle in real time problems such as, for example, foam forming, sudden changes in the effluent to be treated (due to a change in concentration), pipe clogging (due to struvite formation) or bad temperature regulation (due to improper setting of the control parameters).

Abstract: © 2014 The Authors. Nests are structures built to support and protect eggs and/or offspring from predators, parasites, and adverse weather conditions. Nests are mainly constructed prior to egg laying, meaning that parent birds must make decisions about nest site choice and nest building behavior before the start of egg-laying. Parent birds should be selected to choose nest sites and to build optimally sized nests, yet our current understanding of clutch size-nest size relationships is limited to small-scale studies performed over short time periods. Here, we quantified the relationship between clutch size and nest size, using an exhaustive database of 116 slope estimates based on 17,472 nests of 21 species of hole and non-hole-nesting birds. There was a significant, positive relationship between clutch size and the base area of the nest box or the nest, and this relationship did not differ significantly between open nesting and hole-nesting species. The slope of the relationship showed significant intraspecific and interspecific heterogeneity among four species of secondary hole-nesting species, but also among all 116 slope estimates. The estimated relationship between clutch size and nest box base area in study sites with more than a single size of nest box was not significantly different from the relationship using studies with only a single size of nest box. The slope of the relationship between clutch size and nest base area in different species of birds was significantly negatively related to minimum base area, and less so to maximum base area in a given study. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that bird species have a general reaction norm reflecting the relationship between nest size and clutch size. Further, they suggest that scientists may influence the clutch size decisions of hole-nesting birds through the provisioning of nest boxes of varying sizes.

Abstract: Marie Vaugoyeau [et al.], The increase in size of human populations in urban and agricultural areas has resulted in considerable habitat conversion globally. Such anthropogenic areas have specific environmental characteristics, which influence the physiology, life history, and population dynamics of plants and animals. For example, the date of bud burst is advanced in urban compared to nearby natural areas. In some birds, breeding success is determined by synchrony between timing of breeding and peak food abundance. Pertinently, caterpillars are an important food source for the nestlings of many bird species, and their abundance is influenced by environmental factors such as temperature and date of bud burst. Higher temperatures and advanced date of bud burst in urban areas could advance peak caterpillar abundance and thus affect breeding phenology of birds. In order to test whether laying date advance and clutch sizes decrease with the intensity of urbanization, we analyzed the timing of breeding and clutch size in relation to intensity of urbanization as a measure of human impact in 199 nest box plots across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East (i.e., the Western Palearctic) for four species of hole-nesters: blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus), great tits (Parus major), collared flycatchers (Ficedula albicollis), and pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca). Meanwhile, we estimated the intensity of urbanization as the density of buildings surrounding study plots measured on orthophotographs. For the four study species, the intensity of urbanization was not correlated with laying date. Clutch size in blue and great tits does not seem affected by the intensity of urbanization, while in collared and pied flycatchers it decreased with increasing intensity of urbanization. This is the first large-scale study showing a species-specific major correlation between intensity of urbanization and the ecology of breeding. The underlying mechanisms for the relationships between life history and urbanization remain to be determined. We propose that effects of food abundance or quality, temperature, noise, pollution, or disturbance by humans may on their own or in combination affect laying date and/or clutch size., E.

Abstract: The widespread use of artificial nestboxes has led to significant advances in our knowledge of the ecology, behaviour and physiology of cavity nesting birds, especially small passerines. Nestboxes have made it easier to perform routine monitoring and experimental manipulation of eggs or nestlings, and also repeatedly to capture, identify and manipulate the parents. However, when comparing results across study sites the use of nestboxes may also introduce a potentially significant confounding variable in the form of differences in nestbox design amongst studies, such as their physical dimensions, placement height, and the way in which they are constructed and maintained. However, the use of nestboxes may also introduce an unconsidered and potentially significant confounding variable due to differences in nestbox design amongst studies, such as their physical dimensions, placement height, and the way in which they are constructed and maintained. Here we review to what extent the characteristics of artificial nestboxes (e.g. size, shape, construction material, colour) are documented in the 'methods' sections of publications involving hole-nesting passerine birds using natural or excavated cavities or artificial nestboxes for reproduction and roosting. Despite explicit previous recommendations that authors describe in detail the characteristics of the nestboxes used, we found that the description of nestbox characteristics in most recent publications remains poor and insufficient. We therefore list the types of descriptive data that should be included in the methods sections of relevant manuscripts and justify this by discussing how variation in nestbox characteristics can affect or confound conclusions from nestbox studies. We also propose several recommendations to improve the reliability and usefulness of research based on long-term studies of any secondary hole-nesting species using artificial nestboxes for breeding or roosting.

33. On-line measurements of COD, TOC, VFA, total and partial alkalinity in anaerobic digestion processes using infra-red ectrometry.

Author: Steyer P, Bouvier JC, Conte T, Gras P, Harmand J, and Delgenes JP
Subjects: Biomass, Calibration, Fatty Acids metabolism, Hydrogen-Ion Concentration, Industrial Waste, Spectroscopy, Near-Infrared, Volatilization, Bacteria, Anaerobic physiology, Oxygen analysis, Waste Disposal, Fluid methods
Abstract: This paper describes the use of a Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) spectrometer as an on-line sensor to measure Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Organic Carbon (TOC), Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA), and Partial and Total Alkalinity (PA and TA) in anaerobic digestion processes for the treatment of industrial wastewaters. Comparison with manual off-line analysis and with an on-line industrial TOC analyser and an on-line titrimetric sensor (for the measurements of VFA, TA and PA) are provided to demonstrate the interest of spectral analysis in the mid infra-red domain for the monitoring of anaerobic digestion processes. In order to further illustrate the advantages of using such a technique, on-line measurements recorded during an accident of the pH regulation in the input (pH in the reactor went above 11 and biomass activity stopped) are shown. They demonstrate that, if carefully performed, the calibration can be extended outside its range while being still compatible with requirements of wastewater treatment processes.

Abstract: For several years, a 1 m3 fixed bed anaerobic digestion process has been operated for the treatment of distillery vinasses. This reactor has been fully instrumented with the following variables available on-line: pH, temperature, liquid and gas flow rates, gas composition (i.e., CH4, CO2 and H2), concentration of bicarbonate, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, volatile fatty acids and partial and total alkalinity, these last four variables being measured twice by different techniques (i.e., using a TOC analyzer, a titrimetric sensor and an infrared spectrometer). The purpose of this paper is to compare the respective benefits of advanced instrumentation for the monitoring of wastewater treatment processes in general, and for anaerobic digestion in particular. It will also provide some statistical analysis of the time required to operate a fully instrumented wastewater treatment process. It is indeed well admitted in the literature that instrumentation is usually the main limitation step for using closed-loop control. However, it is our opinion that, in the near future, this situation will change. This point is discussed based on our four years practical experience.

35. Deltamethrin resistance in the codling moth (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): inheritance and number of genes involved.

Abstract: The inheritance of deltamethrin resistance in Cydia pomonella (L.) has been investigated by crossing a resistant (Rv) and a susceptible (Sv) strain, derived from a population collected in south-eastern France in 1995. Deltamethrin resistance was suspected to be under the control of a kdr-type allele and an enhanced mixed-function oxidase (mfo). F(1) and F(2) progenies were therefore tested through dose-response and enzyme assays. Dose-response relationships indicated that resistance was inherited as an autosomal incompletely recessive (D=-0.199) character, involving at least two genes. Enzyme measures suggested the contribution of 1.2 genes to the expression of mfo, with incomplete dominance (D=0.460). Our results support the hypothesis of a polygenic response to deltamethrin selection in the Rv strain, including a major kdr-type allele with a minor effect of mfos. In the light of these findings, we consider the resistance in codling moth populations in south-eastern France as a product of an adaptive sequential selection process, occurring through the sequential addition of resistance genes.

Abstract: Attract-and-kill techniques, associating an attractant and a contact insecticide in a sticky formulation, are a new way of controlling Lepidopteran pests. Insecticide resistance may, however, limit the effectiveness and even the attractiveness of such formulations where resistance pleiotropic effects influence pheromone perception. We have tested this hypothesis on resistant codling moths Cydia pomonella (L) using a commercial formulation containing (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol (codlemone), the major component of the sex pheromone, as an attractant and permethrin as toxicant. We first compared the attractiveness of codlemone in a wind tunnel and the contact toxicity of pyrethroids on males of one susceptible and of three strains selected for resistance to diflubenzuron, deltamethrin and azinphos-methyl. The dose-response relationships of males of susceptible and resistant strains to codlemone did not differ significantly. The deltamethrin-selected strain was the most resistant to pyrethroids, exhibiting 138-, 25- and 18-fold resistance ratios to deltamethrin, cypermethrin and permethrin, respectively. The efficiency of the attracticide formulation, applied successively on filter paper support, glass support and wood support, was estimated by recording the mortality delay of males after natural contact with the formulation in the wind tunnel. The deltamethrin- and diflubenzuron-resistant strains were significantly less affected than the susceptible strain by contact with the attracticide on the wooden support, exhibiting 58- and 2.3-fold greater LT50 ratios, respectively. Mortality of deltamethrin-resistant moths did not exceed 40% after 48 h. The LT50 value was significantly greater on filter paper support than on the two other supports. Surprisingly, the LT50 ratio of the deltamethrin-resistant strain was markedly higher on filter paper support (1021-fold), which was more absorbent, than on the glass support (31-fold). No sublethal effects in terms of pheromone response, mating or fecundity occurred in moths surviving contact with the attracticide. Choice of insecticides in attracticide formulations will be influenced by the resistance background of the target pests. Principles of insecticide resistance management may also be applied to attract-and-kill technology by alternating with other insecticides or control methods.

Abstract: 1. Six experiments, each involving two groups of six piglets, were designed to study the influence of environmental temperature on heat production, energy retention and protein and fat gain in early weaned piglets. Immediately after weaning, at a mean age of 25 d, the animals were raised in two open circuit respiratory chambers. Each chamber was equipped with a totally wired cage. The piglets were paired-fed and maintained at environmental temperatures of 20, 24 or 28 degrees. Four replicates were used for each temperature. Metabolizable energy, heat production and nitrogen balance were measured during two consecutive periods (A and B), each of 6 d duration. 2. Heat production was higher at 20 degrees than at 24 and 28 degrees during periods A and B. Energy retention was negative during period A, it was positive during period B and increased with temperature. 3. Protein deposition was always positive and independent of environmental temperature. The net efficiency of protein utilization was 0.77. 4. Body fat was mobilized during period A at a higher rate at 20 degrees than 28 degrees. During period B, fat gain increased with increase in temperature. 5. The calculated ME requirement for maintenance amounted to 411 kJ/kg body-weight 0.75 per d at 28 degrees. 6. The critical temperature of early weaned piglets raised in intensive modern housing and fed at about 90% of the ad lib, intake is close to 28 degrees during the first 12 d after weaning.

Abstract: Using two open-circuit respiratory chambers, the effects of medium chain fatty acid intake on digestibility, energy and nitrogen balance were investigated in 4 groups of preruminant Friesian male calves. One group of 7 animals was fed a control diet with a skim-milk powder and tallow base (diet 1). The other three groups were fed diets in which one-third of the tallow was replaced by either 1/3 coconut oil (6 animals, diet 2) or 1/3 tricaproin (6 animals, diet 3). In diet 4, two-thirds of the tallow was replaced by 1/3 coconut oit + 1/3 tricaproin (5 animals). Apparent digestibility and energy metabolizability (q) were similar for diets 1, 2, 3 and significantly higher (P less than 0.05) for diet 4: 97.5 vs 95.1% for dry matter digestibility 97.3 vs 94.5% for energy digestibility, 95.6 vs 93.7% for crude protein digestibility and 94.6 vs 92.8% for q. Whatever the diet, metabolizable energy (ME) efficiency for tissue deposition was 70 +/- 9% and maintenance requirements amounted to an average of 90 kcal ME/d/kgW0.75. However, the latter were related to previous feeding level and increased by .13 +/- 0.06 kcal/d/kgW0.75 for an increase of 1 kcal/d/kgW0.75 of previous ME intake. The lipids in each of the 4 diets were also deposited at a rate of 0.40 +/- 0.09 kcal. Lipid gain was decreased by 0.12 +/- 0.08 kcal for an increase of 1 kcal/d/kgW0.75 of previous Me intake. The regression coefficients of protein energy gain on Me intake were 0.25 +/- 0.01; 0.25 +/- 0.06; 0.30 +/- 0.04 and 0.29 +/- 0.06 kcal PF/kcal of ME, respectively, for protein gain did not depend on the previous level of ME intake. Finally, for each of the four diets, respective adjusted energy gains were 107.5a; 122.6b; 105.6a and 99.1a kcal/d/kgW0.75, adjusted lipid gains 60.4a; 69.0a; 50.9b and 42.6c kcal/d/kgW0.75 and adjusted protein gains 47.6a; 53.6b; 53.8b and 57.5c kcal/d/kgW0.75 (data with a different superscript are significantly different; P less than 0.05). In the present study, the energy cost of protein deposition amounted to 2.29 +/- 0.21 kcal ME/kcal of protein and that of lipid deposition to 0.99 +/- 0.20 kcal ME/kcal of lipid.

Abstract: The advantages of using caprylic acid in the feed of preruminant calf have been investigated and compared to those of coconut oil. Two trials were carried out. Trial 1 studied the effect on the appetence and digestibility of a conventional milk replacer when tricaprylin ( TC8 ) was substituted for one-half of the tallow in the replacer. Trial 2 investigated diet digestibility and energy and nitrogen balances in 3 groups of 6 Friesian male preruminant calves each, using two open-circuit respiratory chambers. Group 1 was fed a control diet based on skim-milk powder and tallow (diet 1). In group 2, 2/3 of the tallow was replaced by coconut oil (diet 2). In group 3, 1/3 of the tallow was replaced by coconut oil and the other 1/3 by TC8 (diet 3). Apparent digestibility of energy (94.4 vs 90.7%; P less than 0.05) and nitrogen (93.2 vs 89.7%; P less than 0.10) and energy metabolizability , q (91.6 vs 88.1%, NS) were higher with diet 2 than with diet 1. TC8 intake also favoured a higher apparent digestibility of energy (98.0 vs 92.9%; P less than 0.01) and nitrogen (96.9 vs 93.0%; P less than 0.001) in trial 1 but not in trial 2 where diet 3 had only a slightly higher apparent digestibility than diet 1 (92.9% for energy and 90.7% for nitrogen; P less than 0.10). Adjusted protein gains observed in trial 2 were 52.3 +/- 3.4, 58. 9b +/- 5.3 and 56. 5ab +/- 5.4 kcal/d/kg W0 .75, respectively, for each of the 3 diets; adjusted lipid gains were 66. 8a +/- 4.0, 59.6b +/- 4.2 and 61. 2ab +/- 6.7 kcal/d/kg W0 .75; and adjusted energy gains were 119.2 +/- 6.2, 118.4 +/- 6.1 and 117.5 +/- 6.6 kcal/d/kg W0 .75 (a, b = data with different superscripts are significantly different; P less than 0.05). Metabolizable energy (EM) efficiency for tissue deposition was of the order of 0.67 +/- 0.14, and maintenance requirements amounted to an average of 95 kcal EM/d/kg W0 .75.
