Thirty species of parasites were recovered from seven adult male Malayan red jungle fowls Gallus gallus spadiceus from Ulu Langat, Selangor, Malaysia. Fifteen species of the parasites are newly recorded for this host; they are Pseudolynchia canariensis, Eimeria sp., Trichomonas gallinarum, Ascaridia galli, Capillaria annulata, Capillaria contorta, Cardiofilaria nilesi, Dispharynx spiralis, Gong...

Ayam kampung (Gallus gallus gallus) adalah salah satu varietas ayam buras Indonesia. Siklus hidup cepat dengan indikator pertumbuhan dapat dilihat dari tulangnya. Parameter satunya berasal perhitungan hasil pengukuran jarak antar tulang atau sendi. Salah bagian yang penting untuk diukur yaitu toraks karena dada karkas mengandung banyak daging. Lingkar, lebar, dan panjang pada digunakan menaksir...

Abstract Antioxidants are natural or synthetic substances that delay oxidation through one more mechanisms, such as scavenging free radicals, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, and complexing with metals, tissue destruction via oxidation. commonly used in animal feed the food industry to prevent of animal-origin products. Moreover, oxidants increasingly reproduction, especially for semen preservati...

American trypanosomiasis is a chronic disease transmitted mainly by vectors. The hematophagous triatomine vectors transmit Trypanosoma cruzi to a wide variety of mammals, which usually are their food source. This study determined the feeding profile of Mepraia spinolai, a sylvatic triatomine vector, present in endemic areas of Chile. Vectors were captured in the north-central area of Chile. Sam...

Similarities between New World and Old World vultures have been interpreted to reflect a close relationship and to suggest the inclusion of both in Accipitridae (Falconiformes). However, deeper analyses indicated that the placement of the New World vultures (cathartids) in this Order is uncertain. Chromosome analysis has shown that cathartids retained a karyotype similar to the putative avian a...

Chromosome painting probes specific for macrochromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and Z were applied to both mitotic and lampbrush chromosomes of the chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus). Five autosomal macrobivalents and sex chromosomeZ in the lampbrush phasewere identified and their correspondence to the target chromosomes in the metaphase of mitosis was shown. Nascent transcripts on lateral loops of the...
