Biofortified orange corn increases xanthophyll density and yolk pigmentation in egg yolks from laying hens [PDF]
Poultry Science, 2021 Plant breeding has developed corn genotypes with grain higher in levels of carotenoids. Dietary consumption of specific carotenoids by humans has been associated with improved eye health, notably with some protection against age-related macular degeneration.

Effects of microalgae supplementation on performance, egg quality, yolk fatty acid levels, and blood parameters in laying hens: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Scientific ReportsMicroalgae have gained attention in laying hen nutrition due to their richness in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), pigments, and antioxidants. However, their efficacy in poultry diets remains inconsistent.

Effect of 3-Nitro-10 on Egg Yolk Pigmentation
Poultry Science, 1982 White Leghorn hens, housed in cages were fed commercial-type corn-soy diets containing one of three levels of 3-Nitro-10 (0, .0025, and .005%) and either of two levels of xanthophyll (high and low) supplied by yellow corn. Egg yolks were collected and the yolks analyzed for color using reflectance colorimetry. The addition of 3-Nitro-10 at either level

Strain Differences in Egg Yolk Pigmentation
Poultry Science, 1977 Abstract Two experiments were conducted to evaluate egg yolk pigmentation from eggs produced by 12 commercial laying strains of hens housed in both floor and cage conditions. Eggs were obtained from the Florida Poultry Evaluation Center, Chipley, Florida, during the 4th (experiment 1) and 10th (experiment 2) 28-day production periods of the 23rd ...

The Influence of Light on Egg Yolk Pigmentation
Poultry Science, 1986 Abstract An experiment was conducted to determine the influence of light on yolk pigmentation. In addition, data from a previous experiment on yolk pigmentation were analyzed with respect to pen position in an open house to determine the influence of light intensity on yolk pigmentation.

Pigmenting Efficacy of Several Oxycarotenoids on Egg Yolk
Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 1999 Abstract This experiment was conducted to test the influence of three dietary sources of yellow (YEW) and two sources of red (RED) oxycarotenoids when combined at two different YEW to RED ratios (a 3x2x2 factorial arrangement of treatments) on egg yolk color.

The In Vivo Benefit of Ethoxyquin for Egg Yolk Pigmentation
Poultry Science, 1984 Abstract An experiment was conducted with commercial egg production hens to determine whether or not ethoxyquin enhanced the utilization of xanthophyll during digestion. Egg yolk color was depleted by feeding a diet with white corn for 28 days. The addition of 1.1 and 2.2 mg of ethoxyquin to the water for 14 days resulted in a significant linear ...
