Morphological, phaneroptic, and dominant gene characterization of the naked neck creole hen Subspecies nudicollis in the Sabanas region of the department of Sucre-Colombia ; Caracterización morfológica, faneróptica y de genes dominantes de la gallina criolla Subespecie nudicollis en la región Sabanas del departamento de Sucre-Colombia

Objective. Estimate the morphometric, phaneroptic, and four dominant gene diversity in backyard native birds with naked neck (Gallus domesticus L. Subspecie nudicollis) in the Sabanas subregion, department of Sucre - Colombia. Materials and methods. Overall, 650 adult birds (480 hens and 170 roosters) from 10 different locations, 14 morphometric variables, eight phaneroptics, and four dominant genes were measured. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis. Animals were compared between localities by means of the analysis of variance and Duncan test. Sexual dimorphism was evaluated from b... Mehr ...
