investigate the effects of dietary fig extract and onion extract
supplementation in diet on growth performance, feed utilization, biometric
indexes in common carp ( <i>Cyprinus carpio </i>).
For this purpose, fig and onion extract were added to experimental diets at the
rate of 1,3,5 g / kg respectively. </span> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Arial Narrow’, sans-serif;" xml:lang="en-gb">Fishes were fed with trial feed for 90 days. At the end of the trial
period, weight increase and specific growth rate of the fishes fed with the
feed containing 1.3 g/kg fig extract and 1.3 g/kg onion extract were found to
be higher than the control group; food conversion ratio was found to be lower
than the control group (p<0.05). Hepatosomatic index and viscerosomatic
index amounts of the fishes fed with fig extract and onion extract feeds were
found to be lower than the control group; and spleen somatic index was found to
be higher than the control group (p<0.05). The amount of visceral organ fat
index was found to be lower among the fishes fed with the feed containing fig
and onion extracts compared to the control group (p>0.05). </span> <span lang="en-us" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Arial Narrow’, sans-serif;" xml:lang="en-us">These </span> <span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Arial Narrow’, sans-serif;">
results indicate that dietary supplementation of 1.3 g/kg fig extract in the
commercial diets could improve some biometric indexes. </span> </p> <p> </p> </div>}, number={3}, publisher={Ege Üniversitesi}
