Over the past several years increasing of cellulites in some regions of the country has been reported. During August and September of 2005, 4.48% of total slaughtered broilers were condemned due to cellulitis in Masjid Soleiman slaughterhouse. Four out of 98 slaughtered flocks were infected to cellulitis. The condemnation rates in infected flocks were: flock 1: 1.55%, flock 2: 0.993%, flock 3: ...

The present study was conducted to investigate the impact of breeding season on the productivity and profitability of Barki flock. Simulation technique was used based on technical coefficients derived from statistical analysis of the basic data. Basic data utilized in this study were obtained from the accumulated records collected over 34 successive breeding seasons from 1972 to 2005 of Barki s...

During the course of this UROP, I allowed the flock of birds to communicate with programs and services using PVM, and wrote a rudimentary program to capture data from the flock of birds and the mental model positioning system to allow for comparisons. Doing this involved multiple steps. First, getting the flock to work. Currently there are three birds. They are configured according to the Flock...

This study was carried out to investigate the presence of Salmonella sp in flocks of white laying hens. In different farms, the transport boxes of twelve flocks were inspected at arrival for the presence of Salmonella. Four positive (A, B, L and M) and one negative (I) flocks were monitored at each four weeks using bacteriological examination of cecal fresh feces up to 52 weeks. Birds were also...

Phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial (mt) DNA have indicated that the cichlid species flock of the Lake Victoria region is derived from a single ancestral species found in East African rivers, closely related to the ancestor of the Lake Malawi cichlid species flock. The Lake Victoria flock contains ten times less mtDNA variation than the Lake Malawi radiation, consistent with current es...

Connectedness among animals in separate flocks reduces the risk of biased comparisons when selecting across flocks on EBV. The objective in this study was to assess levels of connectedness in the genetic evaluation of weaning weight among Targhee and Suffolk flocks participating in the US National Sheep Improvement Program (NSIP). Among flocks currently participating in the NSIP, a total of 25,...
