Effect of sex on muscular development of Muscovy ducks [PDF]

Reproduction Nutrition Development, 1999
Muscovy ducks display marked sexual dimorphism. The aim of our study was to analyse the consequences of dimorphism on muscular growth and, particularly, on the myofibrillar typology of the Pectoralis major and Sartorius muscles. In the Pectoralis muscle, we only found two fibre types: red fast-twitch oxido-glycolytic fibres (about 90%) and white fast ...
