Effects of hen production cycle and egg weight on egg quality and composition, hatchability, duckling quality, and first-week body weight in Pekin ducks.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of hen production cycle (HPC) and the effect of egg weight (EW) at the same egg production level on egg quality, egg composition, hatchability, duckling quality, and first-week BW in Pekin ducks. For HPC, hatching eggs were obtained from different Pekin-duck breeder flocks, aged 31 wk for the first production cycle (HPC1) and 78 wk for the second...
متن کاملGenetic mapping of quantitative trait loci affecting body weight, egg character and egg production in F2 intercross chickens.
Phenotypic measurements of chicken egg character and production traits are restricted to mature females only. Marker assisted selection of immature chickens using quantitative trait loci (QTL) has the potential to accelerate the genetic improvement of these traits in the chicken population. The QTL for 12 traits (i.e. body weight (BW), six for egg character, three for egg shell colour and two f...
متن کاملAmino acid requirements of broiler breeders at peak production for egg mass, body weight, and fertility.
Two trials were conducted to determine the amino acid and protein requirements of broiler breeders at peak production. In trial 1, 32-wk-old Cobb 500 broiler breeders with similar BW were selected to determine the digestible amino acid requirement for daily product output (g of egg mass + g of BW gain/b/d) and feed conversion (g of feed/g of product) for Met, Phe, Arg, Ile, Lys, and CP in a 42-...
متن کاملeffect of divergent selection for body weight on egg production and other reproduction traits in japanese quail
the aim followed in the present research was to investigate the effect of nine generations of divergent selection on some reproductive and egg production traits in japanese quail. the results indicated that selection for 4-week body weight, increased the age at sexual maturity of hw and of lw lines, in comparison with control, for about 7 and 3 days, respectively (p
متن کاملEffect of the Genetic Selection of Turkeys for Increased Body Weight and Egg Production on Immune and Physiological Responses1
Selection of poultry for fast growth rate is often accompanied by a reduction in specific immune responses or increased disease susceptibility. In this study, 17-wk-old male turkeys from each of four closed genetic lines, a randombred control (RBC) line and its subline (F) selected for increased 16-wk BW, and another RBC line and its subline (E) selected for increased egg production, were teste...
