Improved barley broiler feed with transgenic malt containing heat-stable (1,3–1,4)-β-glucanase

The low nutritional value of barley for poultry is because of the absence of an intestinal enzyme for efficient depolymerization of (1,3–1,4)-β-glucan, the major polysaccharide of the endosperm cell walls. This leads to high viscosity in the intestine, limited nutrient uptake, decreased growth rate,...
