The effect of static incubation on the yolk sac vasculature of the Japanese quail (Coturnix c. japonica) [PDF]
Static incubation affects early embryonic development with, notably, a reduction area vasculosa expansion and diminished sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) volume, effects produced during a ‘critical’ period (3-7 days in the chick) (Baggott et al., 2002).
