Effect of long-term oral administration of extra thyroxine on oviductal expression of carbonic anhydrase and avidin-related protein-2 genes in broiler breeder hens

The impact of avidin-related protein-2 (AVRP2) and carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) in sperm viability in the SSTs has been suggested. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of oral administration of a high dose of thyroxine on the oviductal expression of AVRP2<...
