Olukosi, O. A., Paton, N. D., Van Kempen, T. and Adeola, O. 2011.Short Communication:An investigation of the use of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy to predict the energy value of meat and bone meal for swine. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 91: 405–409. The feasibility of using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) for predicting metabolizable energy of meat and bone meal (MBM) for swine was investigated. Thirty-three MBM samples were analyzed for chemical composition and their metabolizable energy content was determined in metabolism assays. Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy calibrations were developed for gross and metabolizable energy of the samples. Coefficients of determination for calibration and cross-validation were greater for gross energy compared with metabolizable energy. Poorer prediction of metabolizable energy by NIRS may be due to sources of variation unaccounted for by NIRS. It was concluded that NIRS is feasible for predicting gross energy but not metabolizable energy of meat and bone meal.

Texture Attributes

Despite the importance of yam ( Dioscorea spp.) tuber quality traits, and more precisely texture attributes, high-throughput screening methods for varietal selection are still lacking. This study sets out to define the profile of good quality pounded yam and provide screening tools based on predictive models using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy. Seventy-four out of 216 studied samples proved to be moldable, i.e. suitable for pounded yam. While samples with low dry matter (<25%), high sugar (>4%) and high protein (>6%) contents, low hardness (<5 N), high springiness (>0.5) and high cohesiveness (>0.5) grouped mostly non-moldable genotypes, the opposite was not true. This outline definition of a desirable chemotype may allow breeders to choose screening thresholds to support their choice. Moreover, traditional near infrared reflectance spectroscopy quantitative prediction models provided good prediction for chemical aspects (R2 > 0.85 for dry matter, starch, protein and sugar content), but not for texture attributes (R2 < 0.58). Conversely, convolutional neural network classification models enabled good qualitative prediction for all texture parameters but hardness (i.e. an accuracy of 80, 95, 100 and 55%, respectively, for moldability, cohesiveness, springiness and hardness). This study demonstrated the usefulness of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy as a high-throughput way of phenotyping pounded yam quality. Altogether, these results allow for an efficient screening toolbox for quality traits in yams.
