Abstract
The use of full-fat canola seed as a source of ω-3 fatty acids in rations for turkeys was assessed in 12-wk-old Nicholas heavy broiler turkeys of both sexes. Results indicate that dietary C18:3ω3 from full-fat canola seed is readily absorbed and converted to its longer chain metabolites (C20:5ω3, C22:5ω3, and C22:6ω3) prior to tissue deposition. Key words: Canola, turkeys, ω-3 fatty acids
