A positive cosmid clone obtained from a pwel5rooster DNA library using a chicken protamine cDNA probe reveals the complete sequence of the two loci for the rooster protamine genes. The organization of these two loci within the cosmid clone matches that of genomic DNA. The copy number per haploid genome is two. The sequence for the rooster protamine predicted from the coding region shows differe...

A new instrument for assessing mammalian semen attributes, the Sperm Quality Analyzer, was evaluated as a potential tool for determining rooster sperm quality. The Sperm Quality Analyzer measures the “activity” of sperm in a semen sample as the sperm motility index (SMI). The SMI is defined as the number and amplitude of deflections in a light path per second as a result of sperm movement wit...

the purpose of this study was to evaluate the probable effects of the vitamin e addition in different levels to the extender of chicken semen on spermatozoa quality during storage of semen at 4°c for 0, 3, 6, 10 and 24 hours. eight young ross broiler breeder strain 308 roosters were used in this experiment. the collected semen from all roosters was mixed together and diluted with modified a rin...

in this research, effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) on motility and fertility of indigenous rooster spermatozoa was evaluated using 20 and 48 indigenous roosters and hens, respectively. semen was collected and pooled. in the first experiment, the pooled semen was diluted and divided into four aliquots.the treatments were included the diluted semen without bsa and with 1% bsa; in each group, ...

Productive and reproductive performances in terms of body weight, age at first egg, egg production, fertility, hatchability mortality Vanaraja, Rainbow Rooster, Kamruapa Desi chicken Assam were studied under traditional backyard system rearing. The Rooster birds given to rear the frontline demonstration programmes Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Dhemaji women farmers district during 2020-21. data on bird...

Background: Single domain antibodies from camel heavy chain antibodies (VHH or nanobody), are advantages due to higher solubility, stability, high homology with human antibody, lower immunogenicity and low molecular weight. These criteria make them candidates for production of engineered antibody fragments particularly in transgenic animals. Objective: To study the development of transgenic ch...

The three-dimensional structure and size of ostrich sperm is unknown. In this study, the morphology and dimensions of ostrich sperm were determined by scanning electron microscopy of semen samples obtained from sexually mature males during the breeding season. The results indicate that sperm cells of the ostrich are of the sauropsid type characteristic of non-passerine birds and, in general app...

rooster`s eye has been used a lot in shahnameh and other contexts. poets and authors, following their ancestors, have talked about it as a symbol of beautification, purity, and redness however rooster`s eye doesn’t have any of these features, nor are these features important enough to be noticed by poets. researchers have mentioned some opinions to match these features with rooster`s eye, and...
