The Chloride Requirement of the Broiler Breeder Hen
An experiment was conducted to determine the chloride requirement of broiler breeder hens fed a corn soybean meal diet. Levels of .135 and .09% (daily intake of 208 and 139 mg) supplemental chloride were required for maximum egg production and egg weight, respectively. However, a supplemental level of .135% was required to maximize hatchability.

This research was conducted to identify genetic polymorphisms of the GNRHR gene on Isfahan native hen traits and their relationship with production traits. For this purpose, blood was taken, DNA was extracted, the target fragment was amplified and directly sequenced, and finally it was blasted with the reference gene in NCBI.

An investigation into extreme aggressiveness of broiler breeder males
Commercial broiler breeder males reportedly behave aggressively towards females, causing reduced fertility, increased female injury, increased female mortality and reduced animal well-being.

This study revealed the active circulation of fowl adenoviruses in broiler farms in Sabah, Malaysia. FAdV‐8b and FAdV‐11 were identified in flocks with IBH lesions, accompanied by high antibody titres in unvaccinated birds. Phylogenetic analysis showed close relationships with global strains, highlighting the need for enhanced surveillance and control ...

This review evaluates the clinical potential and limitations of intranasal (IN) drug administration in veterinary anaesthesia and emergency care. IN delivery can provide clinically relevant sedation, analgesia and drug reversal, but its success is not universally reliable and is strongly influenced by species‐specific anatomy, formulation ...

Abdominal Fat in Broiler Breeders
Abstract Forty sires and forty dams from a female selection and a control broiler line were slaughtered at 47 weeks of age. Males had a mean of .17% abdominal fat and females 3.32% with 37.5% of the males having little or no fat.

Egg traits and physiological neonatal chick parameters from broiler breeder at different ages
This investigation was carried out to study egg traits (weight, specific gravity and eggshell thickness), and neonatal chick parameters (weight, blood, cardiac and lung parameters) from breeder at different ages. After hatching, neonatal chicks, male and

Nitrite exposure induces intestinal stress in juvenile Eleutheronema tetradactylum, characterized by microbial dysbiosis, metabolic reprogramming, and altered digestive enzyme activities. Integrated metabolomics and microbiota analyses reveal coordinated hostmicrobe responses involving key pathways such as ABC transporters and amino acid metabolism ...

Targeting Myostatin for Sustainable Meat Production: Insights From Multiple Species
ABSTRACT Myostatin gene (MSTN), a TGF‐β superfamily member, negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth, positioning it as a prime genetic target for enhancing livestock meat production. This review synthesizes evidence from 1979 to 2025 on MSTN mutations across cattle, pigs, poultry, sheep, goats, and rabbits, emphasising impacts on yield, quality ...
