the best method of fish breeding is the isolation of pure lines having high-producing hybrids. the decline in heterosis (dih) resulted from inbreeding, maternal effects, general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) on reproductive traits (e.g., egg production, number of hatched egg, and hatchability of pure lines and crosses) of tiger, green, and albino barbie hybrids we...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of costmary(Tanacetum balsamita)medicinal plant on performance, egg traits, and blood biochemical parameters of laying hens. Hundred-eighty of Hi-line laying hens (W 36) from 46 until 58 weeks of age were used in a completely randomized design in five treatments and three replicates (12 birds per replicate). The treatment...

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of mineral and vitamin premix on performance and egg traits of laying hens from 37 to 49 weeks of age. Two hundred and forty laying hens (Hy-Line W-36 strain) were randomly assigned to 5 dietary treatments of four replicates each with 12 hens per replicate). The levels of mineral and vitamin premixes in the experiment were ...
