Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for growth and development of almost all organisms and its deficiency severely affects the health of plants, animals and humans. In order to investigate the enrichment of Zn in cereals a pot experiment was performed in two contrasting rice varieties viz., PD16 (zinc efficient) and NDR359 (zinc inefficient) under different levels of zinc regimes such as control (0 Zn), soil application (5 mg Zn/kg soil tagged with 3.7 MBq of <sup>65</sup>Zn/pot), foliar spray of 0.5% ZnSO<sub>4</sub> at 30, 60 and 90 days (925 KBq of <sup>65</sup>Zn/pot), soil application (5 mg Zn/kg soil tagged with 3.7 MBq of <sup>65</sup>Zn/pot) + foliar spray of 0.5% ZnSO<sub>4</sub> at 30, 60 and 90 days (925 KBq of <sup>65</sup>Zn/pot). Both varieties markedly differ in <sup>65</sup>Zn accumulation and grain Zn content. NDR359 showed poor translocation efficiency and accumulated relatively less <sup>65</sup>Zn in all the plant parts. In both rice varieties, highest concentration of Zn in dehusked grains could be obtained with soil application of Zn + foliar spray of zinc sulphate. Though NDR359, a zinc inefficient variety exhibited poor zinc translocation efficiency yet, it contained more Zn content in grains with husk and dehusked grains than PD16.

summaryGrowth and visceral organ weights of male guinea fowl (Numida meleagris) given different levels of oxytetracycline have been studied in two experiments. In the first experiment 0, 5·0, 10·0, 15·0 and 20·0 mg oxytetracycline per kg diet were given to male guinea fowl from day 1 to 12 weeks. Body weight showed significant (P < 0·05) increases with incremental levels of the antibiotic up to 10 mg/kg diet. No further increases in growth were recorded with supplementation above this level. There were no treatment effects on the gizzard, lungs and male reproductive organs. Only the heart, liver and intestine weights were significantly (P < 0·05) affected by the treatment, and then only at the highest (20 mg/kg) of the inclusion rates examined. A second experiment was conducted to find out if the growth response obtained with 10 mg/kg oxytetracycline could be produced with a smaller dose. This was achieved at 6·6 mg/kg.
