Leucaena leucocephala in poultry nutrition — A review
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 1989Abstract The nutritional attributes of Leucaena leucocephala and the factors limiting its use in poultry diets have been the subject of considerable research over the past 10 years. Recent data confirm the previous findings concerning the favourable proximate composition of Leucaena leaf meal (LLM), although the carotenoid content of this legume ...

The value of Leucaena leucocephala bark in leucaena—grass hay diets for Thai goats
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2010The study assessed the value of Leucaena leucocephala bark in leucaena-grass hay diets fed to Thai goats. Thai goats in metabolism pens were fed diets containing leucaena leaf (55%) + pangola grass hay (hay, 45%); leucaena leaf (48%) + leucaena bark (9%) + hay (43%); leucaena bark (57%) + hay (43%); and hay only. Feed percentages are expressed on a dry

Leucaena leucocephala as a feed for livestock in Barbados
1987Leucaena is found in all parts of Barbados, where it has been traditionally harvested for feeding to all classes of livestock. Improved varieties, originally imported from Australia, have been used both in mixed pastures with productive grasses, and as protein banks for grazing or cutting at controlled times of the year.

Rheological characterization of the galactomannan from Leucaena leucocephala seed
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2012A water soluble galactomannan isolated from Leucaena leucocephala seeds gave an intrinsic viscosity of 3.5 dl/g and viscosity average molecular mass, M(v), of 6.98 × 10(5) g/mol. This was in reasonably good agreement with the value of the weight average molecular mass, M(w), of 5.44 ± 0.20 × 10(5) g/mol determined by GPC-MALLS coupled to RI.

Mimosine Content of Leucaena leucocephala and the Sensitivity of Rhizobium to Mimosine
Journal of Plant Physiology, 1985Mimosine was qualitatively and quantitatively estimated from the different parts of Leucaena leucocephala strains K-8 and K-67. The amount of mimosine as percentage of dry weight in the two strains were, respectively, as follows: seeds, 6.82, 9.98; old leaves, 1.5, 1.33; young leaves, 2.85, 3.33; main root, 1.13, 1.02; lateral roots, 1.46, 1.17; stems,

TOXICITY OF LEUCAENA LEUCOCEPHALA
Australian Veterinary Journal, 1978SUMMARY Steers fed a sole diet of Leucaena leucocephala cv. Peru (leucaena), rapidly developed a hypothyroid condition. Total serum thyroxine (T4) levels declined from c 120 n mol litre‐1 to 13 n mol litre‐1 within six weeks of full leucaena feeding. Associated with the hypothyroidism was a decline in feed intake, poor weight gain, hair loss, excessive

Heterologous Expression and Characterization of Mimosinase from Leucaena leucocephala
2016Heterologous expression of eukaryotic genes in bacterial system is an important method in synthetic biology to characterize proteins. It is a widely used method, which can be sometimes quite challenging, as a number of factors that act along the path of expression of a transgene to mRNA, and mRNA to protein, can potentially affect the expression of a ...
