Genetic effects of aging on egg quality traits in the first laying cycle of White Leghorn strains and strain crosses.
Three White Leghorn strains, their two-way crosses, and two commercial lines were used to evaluate the effects of aging on heterosis (H), reciprocal effects, and additive (A), Z-chromosome (Z), and heterotic effects and their variances on egg quality traits during the first laying cycle. Egg weight (EW), specific gravity (SG), Haugh unit (HU), and albumen height (AH) were measured at 240, 350, ...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci segregating in crosses between New Hampshire and White Leghorn chicken lines: I. egg production traits.
A genome scan was performed to detect chromosomal regions that affect egg production traits in reciprocal crosses between two genetically and phenotypically extreme chicken lines: the partially inbred line New Hampshire (NHI) and the inbred line White Leghorn (WL77). The NHI line had been selected for high growth and WL77 for low egg weight before inbreeding. The result showed a highly signific...

the present research was conducted to analyze the genetic structure of egg quality traits in japanese quail. external and internal egg quality traits were assessed on 1706 eggs of laying japanese quail. eggs were collected for 4 days at the quaits 10 weeks of age. the investigated traits were analyzed through univariate as well as multivariate animal models employing restricted maximum likeliho...
متن کاملGenetic Analysis of Egg Quality Traits in Bovan Nera Black Laying Hen under Sparse Egg Production Periods
The present research was designed to examine the genetic analysis of egg weight, egg yolk weight and egg albumen weight of Bovan Neva Black laying hens at 25, 51 and 72 weeks. For this purpose, thirty birds were selected from the layer flock in the Babcock University Teaching and Research Farm. They were individually housed in separate labeled battery cage. A total of thirty eggs were collected...
متن کاملGenetic correlation between egg quality traits
Genetic correlation coefficients between egg quality traits were studied using fiftysix harco pullets raised under standard management practices. The estimates were carried out at 22-week, 26-week, 30-week and 32-week of age. Egg quality traits studied include egg weight (EW), shell thickness (ST), haugh unit (HU), yolk index (YI) and shape index (SI). Zero to slight negative correlation coeffi...
