Effects of beak trimming on the performance, beak length, behavior, and carcass traits of a local broiler breed reared in battery cages

Animal Science Journal, 2020
AbstractThis study investigated the effects of beak trimming on a local broiler breed. A total of 648 one‐day‐old birds were randomly allocated into three treatments: no trimming (NBT), infrared beak trimming (IRBT), and hot‐blade beak trimming (HBBT).

Beak length analysis of arrow squidNototodarus sloanii (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae) in southern New Zealand waters

open access: yesPolar Biology, 1996
Beak length analysis was undertaken for the arrov, squidNototodarus sloanii in the New Zealand sector of the Southern Ocean between Stewart Island and the Auckland Islands.N. sloanii has a restricted range and is endemic to the waters around New Zealand and its associated southern islands, where it supports a fishery and is preyed upon by a number of ...

Beak length analysis of the Southern Ocean squid Psychroteuthis glacialis (Cephalopoda: Psychroteuthidae) and its use for size and biomass estimations

open access: yesPolar Biology, 2000
A detailed analysis of beak length to body size and mass measurements was carried out for the glacial squid Psychroteuthis glacialis, which is an endemic cephalopod species in the Southern Ocean. Beak lengths (lower rostral length) were measured from 211 specimens which had been sampled in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean.

Relationship between beak morphological variables and body size and mantle length of male and female Argentine shortfin squid (Illex argentinus)

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2012
Beak of cephalopod is an important hard tissue. Understanding the morphology of beak can yield critical information on the role of cephalopods in the ecosystem. The south patagonic stock of the Argentine shortfin squid, Illex argentinus, is not only one of the most important fishing targets, but also one of the most important species in the marine eco ...

Recommended snapshot length for acoustic point-transect surveys of intermittently available Cuvier's beaked whales

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2021
Acoustic point-transect distance-sampling surveys have recently been used to estimate the density of beaked whales. Typically, the fraction of short time “snapshots” with detected beaked whales is used in this calculation. Beaked whale echolocation pulses are only intermittently available, which may affect the best choice of snapshot length. The effect

A digital test structure for simultaneous bird's beak length and misalignment measurement in polysilicon emitter bipolar technologies

1997 IEEE International Conference on Microelectronic Test Structures Proceedings, 2002
A test structure for geometrical measurements on bipolar processes is presented. Both bird's beak length and misalignment between active areas and active area openings in a polysilicon emitter bipolar technology can be obtained from a unique measurement using it.

Influence of genetic architecture on contemporary local evolution in the soapberry bug,Jadera haematoloma:artificial selection on beak length

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2009
AbstractLittle is known about the influence of genetic architecture on local adaptation. We investigated the genetic architecture of the rapid contemporary evolution of mouthparts, the flight polymorphism and life history traits in the soapberry bugJadera haematoloma(Hemiptera) using laboratory selection.

Beak Length Analysis of Moroteuthis Ingens (Cephalopoda: Onychoteuthidae) from the Falkland Islands Region of the Patagonian Shelf

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1997
A detailed analysis of beak length to body length and weight measurements was carried out for the onychoteuthid squid Moroteuthis ingens, in the Falkland Islands region of the South Atlantic. Lower and upper rostral lengths were both good predictors of mantle length and body weight.

Beak length analysis of loligo forbesi, Todarodes sagittatus and Todaropsis eblanae from the northern North Sea

open access: yes, 2002
A detailed analysis of lower rostral beak length (LRL) to body size and wet body mass measurements was carried out for the squids Loligo forbesi, Todarodes sagittatus and Todaropsis eblanae.
