Gene constitution of indigenous chickens in Bangladesh.

Japanese poultry science, 1988
Morphological characteristics, blood groups and blood protein polymorphisms of indigenous chickens in Bangladesh were investigated. Gene frequencies were analyzed at 29 loci controlling comb shape (the P, R and Cr loci), plumage color (the B, E, I and S loci), shank color (the Id locus), blood groups (the Ea-A, Ea-B, Ea-D and Ea-E loci) and blood ...

Hematobiochemical alterations of acute chlorpyriphos intoxication in indigenous chicken [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2015
The present investigation was undertaken to elaborate hematobiochemical alterations of acute chlorpyriphos (CPF) toxicity in indigenous chicken. Since there is no available literature on the detailed hematobiochemical changes of CPF in indigenous chicken, hence, the present study was designed to establish toxicological effect of CPF on blood ...
