PEREIRA JUNIOR, G.; BARBOSA, P.S.; SHIMODA, E.  y  PEREIRA FILHO, M.. Body composition of tambaqui fed with diets containing leucena leaves meal. Arch. zootec. [online]. 2013, vol.62, n.238, pp.211-216. ISSN 1885-4494.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0004-05922013000200006.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of inclusion of leucena leaf flour in diets on body composition of juveniles of tambaqui. A total of 240 juveniles were distributed in 12 plastic boxes (350 L), in a completely randomized experimental design with four treatments (0, 8, 16 and 24 % of inclusion of leucena leaf flour) and three replications. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) between treatments, indicating that it can be possible to include up to 24 % leucena leaf flour in diets for juveniles of tambaqui, with no change in body composition.
