Effect of digestible threonine on performance, egg quality, blood metabolites, and immune responses in laying hens fed a wheat-based diet in the second cycle

The current experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of digestible threonine (dThr) on performance, egg quality, blood metabolites, and immune responses in laying hens fed a wheat-based diet during the second cycle. Also, dThr requirements were determined based on nutrient dose-response data...
