Selection for egg production in native chicken of Kerala for two successive generations

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences
A study was conducted to evaluate the production characteristics of native chicken of Kerala and to improve its egg production through selection. From the base generation (G0) of native chicken, 775 female and 200 male native chicken (G1) were produced ...

INFLUENCE OF LIVE YEAST SUPPLEMENTATION ON ANTIBODY RESPONSE AND SERUM BIOCHEMISTRY IN BROILERS [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, 2002
Live yeast has been used for other purposes in brewing and baking industries for quite long time, but their application as probiotic in poultry nutrition is relatively new. The use of live yeast as a probiotic has extensively been studied in ruminants (

The Data on the Reproductive Biology of the Satanic Leaf-Tailed Geko, Uroplatus phantasticus (Squamata, Gekkonidae), at the BION Terrarium Center as a Contribution to ex situ Offspring Programs

Zoodiversity, 2022
This paper represents the results of a project on mass breeding of satanic leaf-tailed geckos (Uroplatus phantasticus Boulenger, 1888) in controlled laboratory conditions of BION Terrarium Center (Kyiv, Ukraine) in 2020. Given the growing popularity of U.

ATZ‐1 promotes DNA replication efficiency to maintain normal meiotic function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Absence of ATZ‐1 interferes with meiotic DNA replication and cell cycle function via CHK‐1. This causes downstream defects associated with DNA damage and genomic integrity. Taken together, this study suggests that ATZ‐1 influences DNA replication efficiency and cell cycle function to maintain normal meiotic function.

Characterisation of the Mycobiota on the Shell Surface of Table Eggs Acquired from Different Egg-Laying Hen Breeding Systems

Toxins, 2018
Microbial safety is an important factor contributing to the egg quality. During egg acquisition, there is significant risk of contamination of the eggshell surface with microscopic fungi.

Observations on the Living Eggs of the Rabbit

, 1930
In the course of certain observations on the fertilisation of rabbit ova in vitro it soon became evident that, contrary to normal expectation, unfertilised ova will undergo varying degrees of development, much of the development being indistinguishable ...

THE COMPARATIVE BEHAVIOR OF MAMMALIAN EGGS IN VIVO AND IN VITRO

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1935
1. A definite chronological sequence of events occurs in the eggs and follicles of rabbits after mating or after the injection of ovulation-inducing substances. The follicle secretes secondary liquor folliculi, and there occurs a separation of the corona

Evaluating the effect of γ‐oryzanol on MASLD pathology using a medaka fish model

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores a liver disease called MASLD, which is increasing worldwide and can lead to serious damage. Researchers used medaka fish instead of rodents to test a food compound, γ‐oryzanol. Fish fed this compound had less liver fat and healthier gut bacteria.

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Nutritional parameters of eggs from laying hens fed with flaxseed meal or mixture with rapeseed meal or rice bran

Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2020
The effect of flaxseed meal or mixture with rapeseed meal or rice bran on the performance and nutritional quality of the eggs was investigated in a 6-week feeding trial on 120, Tetra SL layers (38 weeks).
