Heat Stress and feeding strategies in meat-type chickens
Heat stress can induce hyperthermia in poultry. A reduction in heat load can be achieved by increasing the possibilities for dissipation, decreasing the level of heat production or by changing the thermal production pattern within a day.

A study of association between genetic markers in candidate genes and reproductive traits in one generation of a commercial broiler breeder hen population [PDF]
Markers of alleles for three physiological candidate genes for reproductive traits, growth hormone (GHR), gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GNRHR) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) were assessed for the association with the total egg production, number of ...
