this study has been carried out to investigate the effect of short-term divergent selection for 4-wk body weight on growth curve parameters and carcass components in japanese quail. quail lines utilized were two divergently selected for high (hw) and low (lw) 4-wk body weight (bw) as well as a line as control (c). the results of the study indicated that quails in hw line had heavier bw than tho...

the effects of various routes of probiotic administration on performance, small intestine morphology and serum cholesterol of broiler chickens, were studied. we assigned 225 day old chicks (ross 308) to five experimental groups including control and four hatchery administration methods comprised of in ovo injection, oral gavage, spray application and cloacal inoculation. all of these were chall...
