Effect of Genotype, Age and Season on Hatchability of Egg
The study was conducted to study the effects of genotype and age of hen and hatching season on hatchability of egg. Hatching eggs were collected from hens having three genotypes viz. White Leghorn (WLH), Rhode Island Red (RIR) and Fayoumi covering three age groups (28 to 40, 41 to 60 and 61 weeks & above) at winter, monsoon and summer seasons. The study revealed that the highest (P<0.05) averag...
متن کاملI . mproved Egg Size high heritability of egg weight gives rapid response to selective breeding
Breeding for egg size differs in several important respects from other problems of poultry breeders. In the improvement of egg number, livability, hatchability and many other economically important characters, the breeder always selects in one direction. His goal is to have the birds in his flock lay the largest possible number of eggs, live as long as possible, at least until he i s ready to d...
متن کاملEgg components, egg size, and hatchling size in leatherback turtles.
Relationships between egg size, egg components, and neonate size have been investigated across a wide range of oviparous taxa. Differences in egg traits among taxa reflect not only phylogenetic differences, but also interactions between biotic (i.e., maternal resource allocation) and abiotic (i.e. nest environment conditions) factors. We examined relationships between egg mass, egg composition,...
متن کاملMaternal effects of egg size on emu Dromaius novaehollandiae egg composition and hatchling phenotype.
Parental investment in eggs and, consequently, in offspring can profoundly influence the phenotype, survival and ultimately evolutionary fitness of an organism. Avian eggs are excellent model systems to examine maternal allocation of energy translated through egg size variation. We used the natural range in emu Dromaius novaehollandiae egg size, from 400 g to >700 g, to examine the influence of...
متن کاملThe physical and rheological properties of egg albumin emulsions are influenced by basil seed gum as the stabilizer
In this study, the effect of basil seed gum (BSG) on the stability and rheological properties of egg white albumin (EWA) emulsions was investigated. A constant amount of EWA (0.5% w/v) and different concentrations of BSG (0-0.3% w/v) were used for the manufacture and stabilization of oil-in-water emulsions (30% w/w). The results showed that by increasing BSG concentration, the storage (21 days)...
