Electrolyte and Water Balance of the Early Avian Embryo: Effects of Egg Turning [PDF]

, 2002
Formation of sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) is a key aspect of the physiology of the early avian embryo.Here we review the process of SEF formation and the factors which influence its composition and the rate of SEF production and depletion in the Japanese ...

Dietary fat supplements influence weight gain and egg production, but not offspring sex ratios in Japanese quail, Coturnix coturnix japonica

Journal of Avian Biology, 2023
Sex ratio theory suggests that females should bias offspring sex ratios based on maternal condition and the availability of critical food resources. Work in birds indicates that females do, indeed, bias sex ratios according to maternal condition and food

Bacterial composition of a competitive exclusion product and its correlation with product efficacy at reducing Salmonella in poultry

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
The mature intestinal microbiome is a formidable barrier to pathogen colonization. Day-old chicks seeded with cecal contents of adult hens are resistant to colonization with Salmonella, the basis of competitive exclusion.

Delayed post-hatch feeding affects the performance and immunocompetence differently in male and female broiler chickens

Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2018
The effect of post-hatch (PH) feed deprival for 6, 12, 24 and 36 h was studied in male and female broiler chickens. At 21 d, lower body weight (BW) was recorded in 36 h feed-deprived (FD) birds; however, at 42 d PH, only 36 h FD female birds had lower BW

Study of the underlying mechanisms and consequences of pathogenicity differences between two in vitro selected G1-H9N2 clones originating from a single isolate

Veterinary Research, 2019
The G1-H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) has caused significant economic losses in the commercial poultry industry due to reduced egg production and increased mortality.

Effects of Dark Brooder Rearing and Age on Hypothalamic Vasotocin and Feather Corticosterone Levels in Laying Hens

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Chickens cannot independently thermoregulate at hatch and lack opportunity to behaviorally thermoregulate with a hen in the egg layer industry, thus barns are heated to thermoneutral temperatures.

Using step width to compare locomotor biomechanics between extinct, non-avian theropod dinosaurs and modern obligate bipeds [PDF]

, 2017
How extinct, non-avian theropod dinosaurs locomoted is a subject of considerable interest, as is the manner in which it evolved on the line leading to birds. Fossil footprints provide the most direct evidence for answering these questions. In this study,

Telomere length declines with age, but relates to immune function independent of age in a wild passerine

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
Telomere length (TL) shortens with age but telomere dynamics can relate to fitness components independent of age. Immune function often relates to such fitness components and can also interact with telomeres.

Fossilized skin reveals coevolution with feathers and metabolism in feathered dinosaurs and early birds [PDF]

, 2018
Feathers are remarkable evolutionary innovations that are associated with complex adaptations of the skin in modern birds. Fossilised feathers in non-avian dinosaurs and basal birds provide insights into feather evolution, but how associated ...
