Poultry meat is one of the most important sources protein for human consumption worldwide. Chicken and turkeys are considered as healthy because they have relatively low levels saturated fat compared with red meat. Kadaknath a native breed, found in tribal dominated Jhabua district Madhya Pradesh, India. But its priced three times more than that broiler chicken. Narmada Nidhi an improved locati...

AIMS Reduction of left atrial appendage (LAA) flow velocity (FV) is a risk factor for thrombus formation and increases the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Furthermore, LAA morphology is correlated with stroke in patients with AF. The aim of this study was to correlate LAAFV with LAA morphology in patients with AF. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 96 patients (age 59.0 ...

Avian reproductive system is regulated by the integrated system, the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. The HPG axis involves two major neuroendocrine systems controlling avian reproduction. These neuroendocrine systems include the chicken gonadotropin releasing hormone/follicle stimulating hormone-luteinizing hormone (GnRH/FSH-LH), and vasoactive intestinal peptide/prolactin (VIP/PRL) n...

Balitbangtan Superior Kampung Chicken (KUB) is a superior native chicken due to selection from families for six generations conducted by the Indonesian Agency Agricultural Research and Development. KUB chickens have faster growth compared ordinary chickens. This training program was Koto Lua community, Pauh District, Padang City, West Sumatra. activity aims help community conducting on making p...

Native chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a livestock animal that widely kept by the community because it very easy to maintain. chickens are used as staple food contains protein. This study aims determine prevalence and intensity of ectoparasite attacks describe types ectoparasites found in native Mandau Duri District, Riau. The research was conducted December 2022-February 2023. random sam...

Iranian native hens are a valuable genetic resource, due to their adaptability to harsh conditions of husbandry and environment in rural area. The genetic parameters for various traits of economic importance were studied in an Iranian Native chicken population under short term selection for egg production and body weight for over 2 years. The parameters studied were body weight at day old (BW1)...

Natural resistance to infection with Salmonella typhimurium in mice is controlled by two major loci, Bcg and Lps, located on mouse chromosomes 1 and 4, respectively. Both Bcg and Lps exert pleiotropic effects and contribute to cytostatic/cytocidal activities of the macrophage. Bcg encodes for a membrane phosphoglycoprotein designated Nrampl (natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1), ...
