High-dose DNJ increased the relative abundance of Bacteroides, Escherichia-Shigella, and Butyricicoccus but reduced that of unclassified Ruminococcaceae compared with the control (P less then 0.05). In conclusion, changes in the digestive system caused by DNJ seriously affected the metabolism of nutrients in geese and reduced their growth performance. #link# Attention should be paid to the adverse effects of DNJ when using mulberry leaves as poultry feed.This study evaluated the effects of varying levels of L-arginine (Arg) on performance and intestinal health of broilers challenged with Eimeria. Cobb 500 male chicks (n = 720) were randomly distributed in a 5 × 2 factorial arrangement (6 replicates/12 birds). The main factors were Arg levels (1.04, 1.14, 1.24, 1.34, 1.44%) and challenge or non-challenge with Eimeria. At day 12, in the challenge group, each bird received orally 12,500 Eimeria maxima, 12,500 Eimeria tenella, and 62,500 Eimeria acervulina sporulated oocysts. At 5 d postinfection (dpi), intestinal permeability was measured. At 6 and 14 dpi, performance, intestinal histomorphology, nutrient digestibility, tight junction protein (TJP) gene expression, and antioxidant markers were evaluated. Few interactions were found, and when significant, the supplementation of Arg did not counteract the negative effects of Eimeria challenge. Challenge, regardless of Arg level, increased intestinal permeability, although the expression of Claudin-1, a TJP, was uperall growth, intestinal integrity, and morphology in broilers subjected or not to Eimeria challenge.The present study proposes a Gaussian process regression (GPR) approach to develop a model to predict true metabolizable energy corrected for nitrogen (TMEn) content of corn samples (as model output) for poultry given levels of feed
