The Benefit of Maternal Care and Infanticide by Males as Reproductive Strategies in a Caprellid Amphipod. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
In the marine amphipod Caprella kominatoensis, males perform infanticide to terminate maternal care and accelerate female molting for mating opportunities. However, we found that maternal defense is effective when the female parent is larger than the intruding male.

An Attempt to Force Molt Small Egg-Type Pullets

Poultry Science, 1975
Small 1.1 kg. egg-type pullets having the sex-linked dw dwarfing gene were more resistant to a force molting program started at 11 months of age than were their 1.4 kg. non-dwarf counterparts. Water deprivation appeared to prevent egg production sooner in the dwarfs than in the non-dwarfs but egg production eight weeks after initiation of the force ...

Reproductive Performance of Force-Molted Turkey Breeder Hens

Poultry Science, 1971
Abstract THE relatively short reproductive cycle of the domestic turkey makes it an economic necessity to devise techniques that would effectively enhance its reproductive potential. Accordingly, Albright and Thompson (1933) and Marsden (1936) showed that turkeys could be stimulated into egg production through the use of artificial lights. Since that
