Improved effectiveness of artificial insemination of turkey hens associated with ahemeral light-dark cycles and age at photostimulation.
In lighting studies with turkey hens, long ahemeral (AH; non-24 h) light-dark cycles have consistently resulted in greater, although not statistically significant, fertility than control 24 h light-dark cycles. The present study was designed to further evaluate AH lighting effects on fertility by an evaluation of the effectiveness of artificial insemination (AI) under less than optimal conditio...
متن کاملResonance –Free Light Recycling
The inability to efficiently tune the optical properties of waveguiding structures has been one of the major hurdles for the future scalability of integrated photonic systems. In silicon photonics, although dynamic tuning has been achieved with various mechanisms, even the most effective thermo-optic effect offers a refractive index change of only 1.86 × 10 K. To enhance this small change, ligh...
متن کاملInitiating egg production in turkey breeder hens: thyroid hormone involvement.
The role of thyroid hormones in the expression of photosensitivity-photorefractoriness in female turkeys was investigated through the use of an antithyroidal agent, 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU). In experiment 1, females held continuously from hatch on long day lengths (16L:8D; LD) and fed 0.1% PTU from 0 to 16 wk, began laying eggs at 26 wk of age, peaking at 75% hen-day egg production by 29 w...
متن کاملMammalian cerebral cortical tissue responds to low-intensity visible light.
Low levels of visible light directed onto slices of rat cerebral cortical tissue enhanced net potassium-induced release of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from these brain slices. At higher light intensity, net potassium-induced release was suppressed. These effects were apparently not from increased temperature. The amount of light enhancing this neurotransmitter release is...
متن کاملFeed restriction of turkey breeder hens--a review.
Past research on feed restriction methods with turkey breeder hens has involved the feeding of 1) high-fiber or low-energy diets, 2) low dietary protein, 3) limited quantities of feed, 4) rations on a skip-a-day program, 5) distasteful compounds, or 6) combinations of these methods. In general, feed-restricted turkey breeder hens showed a reduction in BW and a delay in sexual maturity at time o...
