The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

The effects of digestible threonine levels, based on ideal protein concept in diets with 1.35% of digestible lysine on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings performance. Four hundred thirty two reverted Nile tilapia, Thailand strain, with initial weight of 1.64 ± 0.03 g, were allotted to completely randomized design, with six diets and six replications with twelve fishes each. The five diets, isoenergetic isoproteic, consisted of various threonine:digestible lysine ratio (69.0, 74.0, 79.0, 84.0, and 89.0%) and methionine + cystine:digestible lysine […]

The effect of decreasing dietary crude protein (CP) with supplementation of amino acids, based on the ideal protein concept on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings performance was evaluated. A total of 396 fingerlings from Thai strain, with 0.80 ± 0.17 g of BW, was allotted to a randomized block design, with six levels of CP (32, 31, 30, 29, 28 and 27% of CP) in the diets, six replications with 11 fish each. The diets were formulated to be isocaloric […]

Three hundred and ninety six reverted Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), from Thailand strain, averaging initial weight of 0.86 ± 0.02 g were used to evaluate the effect of feeding methionine plus cystine:lysine levels, based on the ideal protein concept, with deficient levels of digestible lysine (1.40%). The experiment was analyzed as a completely randomized design, with six treatments, six replications by treatment and 11 fishes for experimental unit. The treatments consisted of five diets with different ratios of digestible methionine […]
