Abstract
Abstract Growth performance, apparent retention (AR) of amino acids (AA), blood, and meat quality parameters were determined in grower Jumbo quail-fed diets containing raw or heat-treated marama bean (Tylosema esculentum) meal (MBM). The experimental diets were formulated to contain 99.98 g/kg of raw (MBMR), cooked (MBMC), autoclaved (MBMA), and toasted MBM (MBMT) in a standard grower diet (CON). A total of 306, 7-d-old Jumbo quail chicks (30.97 ± 1.79 g live weight) were placed in 35 cages (8/9 birds per cage). The five diets were allocated to the cages to give seven replicates per diet. The diets had varied responses (P &lt; 0.05) on AR of lysine, methionine, and threonine, among others. The CON diet promoted the highest (P &lt; 0.05) overall feed intake (FI) followed by MBMC and MBMA, and the lowest overall FI was from MBMR and MBMT. Quail-fed MBMR and MBMT diets had the least (P &lt; 0.05) overall body weight gain and final body weights than those fed with the CON, MBMC, and MBMA diets. Moreover, quail on MBMR diet had the lowest (P &lt; 0.05) overall gain-to-feed ratio (G:F) than those reared on the other diets, whose G:F values were statistically similar (P &gt; 0.05). Similarly, quail on MBMR diet had the highest (P &lt; 0.05) concentration of serum lipase and the heaviest gizzard than quail fed the other diets. However, quail-fed MBMT diet had heavier (P &lt; 0.05) relative proventriculus weight compared to quail-fed other diets. Heavier (P &lt; 0.05) relative spleen weights were observed for the MBMT and MBMR groups compared to the other groups. The CON diet had higher (P &lt; 0.05) hematocrits and 1-h breast meat redness compared to the other diets. However, CON, MBMC, and MBMA diets increased (P &lt; 0.05) 24-h breast meat redness than MBMR and MBMT diets. In conclusion, feeding diets with cooked or autoclaved marama bean meal resulted in an improvement in AA utilization, growth performance, and indices of carcass quality. However, raw and toasted marama beans had negative effects on performance parameters suggesting that optimal thermal treatment is critical for marama bean utilization.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
