TLDR
The dietary lysine concentration which supported maximal gain through 14 days of age in a subline of Japanese quail selected for 4-week body weight (HW) was higher than that needed by the random-bred population from which it was initially developed.About:

Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of the Proteins Encoded by Coleoid (Cuttlefish, Octopus, and Squid) Posterior Venom Glands
Tim Ruder,Kartik Sunagar,Eivind A. B. Undheim,Syed Abid Ali,Syed Abid Ali,Tak-Cheung Wai,Dolyce H.W. Low,Timothy N.W. Jackson,Glenn F. King,Agostinho Antunes,Bryan G. Fry +10 more
TL;DR: Although a majority of sites in these coleoid venom-encoding genes have evolved under the regime of negative selection, a very small proportion of sites are influenced by the transient selection pressures, highlighting the importance of variation of the toxin surface chemistry.

Toxicity in Cephalopods
TL;DR: Coleoid cephalopods represent excellent candidates for biodiscovery, being taxonomically distinct from heavily studied venom-producing organisms, and because their venoms appear to be complexmixtures of proteins and smallmolecules.

Biochemical characterization of leg and breast muscle of quail
TL;DR: Findings suggest that as the pH of meat falls, tenderness decreases and Glycogen content and amount of lactic acid of the muscle is also in agreement with the finding of pH.

Processing Losses, Carcass Quality, and Meat Yields of Broiler Chickens Receiving Diets Marginally Deficient to Adequate in Lysine Prior to Marketing
Edwin T. Moran,Sacit F. Bilgili +1 more
TL;DR: Cutting sample carcasses into commercial parts revealed that the proportions of breast and thigh increased with lysine at the expense of back both on a raw and a cooked basis.

Lysine requirements of fast- and slow-growing broiler chicks.
Yanming Han,David H. Baker +1 more
TL;DR: Experiments were conducted to determine the lysine requirement of fast-growing and slow-growing broiler chicks during the period 8 to 21 days posthatching, and it is evident that the slow- growing crossbred broiler strain.

Divergent Selection for Body Weight and Yolk Precursor in Coturnix coturnix japonica: 1. Selection Response
TL;DR: In this paper, a randombred control population of Coturnix coturnix japonica, four strains were selected respectively for high and low 4-week body weight.

Live Performance and Carcass Yield of Male Broilers from Two Commercial Strain Crosses Receiving Rations Containing Lysine Below and Above the Established Requirement Between Six and Eight Weeks of Age
TL;DR: Interactions existed between strain and lysine for abdominal fat, breast fillets yield, and tenders yield, which indicated that RR was at advantage for all factors when l Lysine attained .85%.

Effects of dietary lysine and feed intake on energy utilization and tissue synthesis by broiler chicks
I. R. Sibbald,M. S. Wolynetz +1 more
TL;DR: An experiment to estimate changes in body composition associated with dietary lysine concentration and independent of energy intake supported the basic hypothesis that at a given feed intake, the energy stored as protein (REp) would increase, and theEnergy stored as fat (REf) would decrease, as the dietary lYSine concentration approached the requirement of the broiler chick.
