Abstract

Abstract: A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the results of replacing soybean meal (SBM) with other blend plant protein (BP) (rapeseed meal, cottonseed meal and peanut meal) sources on growth, fish body composition, biochemical parameters, non‐specific immune index and gene expression of growth hormone/insulin‐like growth factor‐1 in Yellow River carp Cyprinus carpio . The results showed that the 600 g/kg replacement with BP in diet did not affect the growth performance of Yellow River carp, but the 800 g/kg SBM replacement diet could depress the growth of fish ( p < .05). The 800 g/kg SBM replacement diet significantly impacted the superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde contents, lysozyme, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase activities ( p < .05). Fish fed 800 g/kg SBM replacement diet showed lowest insulin‐like growth factor 1 and highest growth hormone level than that of other diets ( p < .05). Both gene expression levels of GH and IGF‐I in hepatic showed significant difference among dietary treatments ( p < .05), and the lowest GH and IGF‐I mRNA level in liver were found in fish fed 800 g/kg SBM replacement diet ( p < .05). In conclusion, no more than 600 g/kg SBM could be replaced by BP in diet of Yellow River carp without adverse effects on the growth performance. However, 800 g/kg SBM replacement with BP in diet inhibited the growth performance, affected some blood parameters and immune response index, and down‐regulated GH and IGF‐1 gene expression of liver in Yellow River carp. Further, GH level in serum was negatively correlated with GH mRNA level in liver; meanwhile, serum concentrations of IGF‐I were positively correlated with hepatic IGF‐I mRNA expressions.
