Abstract:
A genetic model is presented to explain plumage polymorphism in the Little Shag (Phalacrocorax melanoleucos brevirostris). Parent-offspring data from an Auckland colony show that expression of the three morphs (white-throated, smudgy and pied) is primarily controlled by two alleles at a single genetic locus. The allele specifying ‘dark’ (D) shows incomplete dominance over that specifying ‘pied’ (6). Comparison of morph frequencies with calculated genotype frequencies reveals that about 40% of white-throated birds are homozygous dominant (DD), the rest of the white-throated birds and all smudgy

Abstract:
Several vertebrates choose their mate according to genetic heterozygosity and relatedness, and use odour cues to assess their conspecifics' genetic make-up. In birds, although several species (including the black-legged kittiwake) exhibit non-random mating according to genetic traits, the cues used to assess genetic characteristics remain unknown. The importance of olfaction in birds' social behaviour is gaining attention among researchers, and it has been suggested that, as in other vertebrates, bird body scent may convey information about genetic traits.

Molecular genetic techniques can be used to address a wide array of contemporary conservation problems encountered in the management of captive and wild bird populations. Most applications pertain to issues relevant to the management of populations or species. These range from sex identification in breeding programmes involving species in which the sexes are phenotypically monomorphic, to the identification of taxonomic diversity at the level of species, subspecies and populations. Additionally, comparative analyses of intra-population variation provide a means of identifying populations more

Abstract:
Abstract The colorful phenotypes of birds have long provided rich source material for evolutionary biologists. Avian plumage, beaks, skin, and eggs—which exhibit a stunning range of cryptic and conspicuous forms—inspired early work on adaptive coloration. More recently, avian color has fueled discoveries on the physiological, developmental, and—increasingly—genetic mechanisms responsible for phenotypic variation. The relative ease with which avian color traits can be quantified has made birds an attractive system for uncovering links between phenotype and genotype. Accordingly, the field of av

Parrots (Psittaciformes) are a well-studied, diverse group of birds distributed mainly in tropical and subtropical regions. Today, one-third of their species face extinction, mainly due to anthropogenic threats. Emerging tools in genetics have made major contributions to understanding basic and applied aspects of parrot biology in the wild and in captivity. In this review, we show how genetic methods have transformed the study of parrots by summarising important milestones in the advances of genetics and their implementations in research on parrots.

Hornbills (Aves: family Bucerotidae) are a charismatic group of Palaeotropical birds recognised for their distinctive morphology (casque) and behaviour (nest-sealing).

A wide range of species of hornbills across the Afrotropics, Indo-Malaya and Melanesia are of conservation concern.

To investigate the response of skeletal muscle tissue and the gastrointestinal tract to thermal conditioning. This objective was added during the research, to understand the mechanisms related to compensatory growth. c. To evaluate the effect of early thermo cond

Abstract:
The specific objectives of this research were the study of the physical and nutritional properties of the In Ovo Feeding (IOF) solution (i.e. theosmostic properties and the carbohydrate: protein ratio composition). Then, using the optimal solution for determining its effect on hatchability, early nutritional status and intestinal development of broilers and turkey during the last quarter of incubation through to 7 days post-hatch (i.e. pre-post hatch period) by using molecular, biochemical and histological tools. The objective for the last research phase was the determination of the effect of
