Serum Biochemical Parameters of Broilers Affected by Wooden Breast Myopathy. [PDF]
Animals (Basel)Wooden breast (WB) myopathy is a pathology of the pectoralis major muscle. Wooden breast is caused by multiple factors. The exact etiopathogenesis of this myodegenerative pathology is still unclear. Fast-growing commercial lines of broilers that are selected for high breast muscle yields are more susceptible to this myopathy.
