The Effect of Divergent Selection for Shape of Growth Curve in Japanese Quail on Egg Quality
Original language description
The HG (high growth intensity from 11 to 28 d) and LG (low growth intensity form 11 to 28 d) lines of meat-type Japanese quail, divergently selected for relative body weight gain from 11 to 28 d but constant 49 d weight were used in the experiment. Eggs were analyzed six times during laying period, form 11 to 33 weeks of age. In total 488 eggs of HG and 497 eggs of LG were analyzed for weight of eggs, weight and proportion of yolk, eggshell and albumen, and for yolk colour. Except yolk colour the line had significant effect on all observed characteristics (P<0.05). Age of quails also significantly affected all parameters (P<0.05). Egg weight was higher in LG (13.4 vs. 12.6 g) compared with HG (P<0.05) and yolk weigh was 3.9 g for HG and 4.0 g for LG (P<0.05). Except egg and yolk weight and yolk proportion significant interaction between age and line was calculated (P<0.05).
