Comparision of Direct and Indirect Response to Selection for Breast Weight in Japanese Quail
This study was carried out to investigate the direct and indirect responses to selection for four-week body weight (4 week body (wk BW)) and four-week breast weight (4 week breast weight (wk BRW)) and to determine the genetic contribution of reminder founders to the last generation. A total number of 351 birds were equally allocated to three lines, including two selected lines (S1 and S2 for BW...
متن کاملRelationship Between Egg Weight and Hatch Weight in Pigeons (Columba livia)
This study was undertaken to assess the relationship between egg weight and hatch weight in pigeons and also derive prediction equation based on the relationship. It was conduced in nine randomly selected households in Misau town of Bauchi State, Nigeria, between April and November 2009. The mean egg weight and squab hatch weight were 14.46±0.11 g and 12.55±0.08 g, respectively. No significant ...
متن کاملResponse to Selection for Body Weight in Japanese Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
The present studyinvestigated the impact of selection for body weight (BW) on productive performance, predicted BW and genetic improvement of related traits in Japanese quail. Base population, selected parent and F1 progeny were tested. Pens and cages were used for rearing and breeding. A total of 240 birds in two successive generations, 27 sires and 54 dams (as selected parents) were used. Bod...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci for body weight and carcass traits in Japanese quail
Body weight (BW) and carcass traits are complex and important economic traits that may benefit from the implementation of MAS. The objective of the current study was to identify QTL associated with BW and carcass traits in an experimental half-sib cross of Japanese quails selected for BW at 4 weeks of age. Body weight and carcass traits were measured in the F2 population. Total F2 individuals a...
متن کاملEffect of different levels of dietary vitamin E on reproductive and productive performances in Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary vitamin E on reproductive and productive parameters in Japanese quails. A total number of 240 female and 80 male Japanese quail were divided into five treatments with four replications in a completely randomized design. Experimental diets were zero control, 30, 60, 120 and 240 mg kg-1 of vitamin E. Fertility and total hatch...
