Red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus) as a model for studying the molecular mechanism of seasonal reproduction.

Gene expression in brains from red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus) that differ in fear response

Intact EAV-HP endogenous retrovirus in Sonnerat's jungle fowl.

The EAV-HP group of chicken endogenous retrovirus elements was previously shown to be defective, with large deletions of the pol gene. In this report, we demonstrate that genomes of other Gallus species also maintain EAV-HP elements with similar deletions. The chicken EAV-HP1 locus was detected in both red (Gallus gallus gallus) and Sonnerat's (Gallus sonneratii) jungle fowl with identical inte...

New Host Records of Parasites in the Malayan Red Jungle Fowl, Gallns gallus spadiceus

Thirty species of parasites were recovered from seven adult male Malayan red jungle fowls Gallus gallus spadiceus from Ulu Langat, Selangor, Malaysia. Fifteen species of the parasites are newly recorded for this host; they are Pseudolynchia canariensis, Eimeria sp., Trichomonas gallinarum, Ascaridia galli, Capillaria annulata, Capillaria contorta, Cardiofilaria nilesi, Dispharynx spiralis, Gong...

Plumage Color Allelism in the Red Jungle Fowl (Gallus Gallus) and Related Domestic Forms.

HE lack of an ancestral “standard of reference”, “normal” or “wild type” T for use in genetic studies of the domestic fowl has been of little concern to many poultry geneticists (for a recent discussion of this topic see JAAP and HOLLANDER 1954). In the field of plumage color inheritance, however, a standard of reference seems necessary in describing the action of mutant genes. What the standar...
