Antibiotic resistance of faecal enterococci in poultry, poultry farmers and poultry slaughterers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2002
The prevalence of resistance in enterococci to antibiotics, commonly used for therapy in poultry or as antimicrobial growth promoters (AMGPs), was determined in faecal samples of two chicken populations: broilers in which antibiotic and AMGP use is common and laying-hens with a low antibiotic usage.

Energy Restriction in Broiler Breeders during Rearing and Laying Periods and its Influence on Body Weight Gain, Conversion Efficiency of Nutrients, Egg Production and Hatchability

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2008
The effect of feeding measured energy (ME) allowances during rearing and laying periods on body weight (BW) gain, production performance and hatchability were evaluated in a female broiler parent line.

Effect of Supplemental Manganese on Mineral Uptake by Tissues and Immune Response in Broiler Chickens

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2006
Two feeding trials were simultaneously conducted using 240 and 120 broiler chicks (Hubbard) for evaluating the mineral retention by tissues and immune competence, respectively as influenced by manganese (Mn) levels in feed.

Genome-wide association study for carcase traits in spent hens at 72 weeks old

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2019
To determine the genetic architecture underlying spent hen carcase traits, especially in late laying, we used 1512 hens generated from Dongxiang Blue-Shelled and White Leghorn chickens to implement genome-wide association studies by high-density arrays ...

Utilization of Poultry By-Products in Poultry Rations [PDF]

open access: hybridPoultry Science, 1958
ABSTRACT BASED on a steam-pressure cooking technique advanced by Binkley and Vasak (1950), feathers now can be readily converted into a digestible, friable meal. Today, significant quantities of hydrolyzed feather meal (HFM) as well as poultry blood meal (PBM), and poultry by-products meal (PBPM) made from heads, feet and inedible viscera are ...

Elucidation of the genetic determination of clutch traits in Chinese local chickens of the Laiwu Black breed

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background Egg laying rate (LR) is associated with a clutch, which is defined as consecutive days of oviposition. The clutch trait can be used as a selection indicator to improve egg production in poultry breeding.

Transcriptome and histological analyses on the uterus of freckle egg laying hens

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background In this study, we explored the characteristics and causes of freckle formation. We collected 15 normal and freckled eggs each for eggshell index testing and hypothesized that the structure and function of the uterus would have a direct effect ...
