Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of pollen extract injection into the amnion of fertile broilers eggs on hatchability and relative chick weight to egg weight. Eggs were provided from 34 wk old Ross 308 parent stocks. In the trial 180 fertile broiler eggs were used. Three groups (control, negative control and pollen extract injected group) with three replicate were also included. Injections carried out at the 16th day of incubation. At the end of the study, hatchability was founded at control; negative control and pollen extract injected groups 89.1%, 82.3% and 73.1%, respectively. There were no statistically difference between control and pollen extract injected groups in terms of hatchability, but hatchability decreased in negative control group (P<0,05). Chick weight/initial egg weight after hatch were founded 70.1%, 71.1%, 73.5% at control; negative control and pollen extract injected groups, respectively. It was determined that injection of pollen extract to amnion of eggs statistically increased chick weight/initial egg weight according to the control and the negative control groups (P<0,05). At the end of the study, it was concluded that pollen extracts might be used as a feed ingredient to obtain heavier chicks after hatch, but different extraction methods or different pollen extracts need to be researched.

Döllü Etlik Piliç Yumurtalarına Polen Ekstraktı Enjeksiyonunun Kuluçka Randımanı ve Civciv Ağırlığı Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı döllü etlik piliç yumurtalarının amniyotik sıvılarına polen ekstraktı enjeksiyonunun kuluçka randımanı ve yumurta ağırlığına göre oransal civciv ağırlığını belirlemektir. Döllü etlik piliç yumurtaları 34 haftalık yaştaki damızlık Ross 308 sürüsünden elde edilmiştir. Çalışmada 180 adet döllü etlik piliç yumurtası kullanılmıştır. Çalışma 3 muamele grubu (Kontrol, Negatif kontrol ve Polen Ekstraktı) ve her muamele grubuna ait 3 tekerrürden oluşturulmuştur. Enjeksiyonlar kuluçkanın 16. gününde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonunda kuluçka randımanları kontrol, polen ekstraktı ve negatif kontrol gruplarında sırasıyla %89.1, %82.3, %73.1 olarak bulunmuştur. Kuluçka randımanı bakımından polen ekstraktı enjeksiyonu ile kontrol grubu arasında istatistiki farklılık oluşmazken, negatif kontrol grubunda kuluçka randımanı düşmüştür (P<0,05). Ayrıca başlangıç yumurta ağırlığına göre % civciv ağırlıkları da kontrol, negatif kontrol ve polen ekstraktı enjekte edilen gruplarda sırasıyla %70.1, %71.1, %73.5 olarak bulunmuştur. Polen ekstraktı enjeksiyonunun % civciv ağırlığını kontrol ve negatif kontrol gruplarına göre istatistiki olarak arttırdığı belirlenmiştir (P<0,05). Araştırma sonunda polen ekstraktının kuluçkadan sonra daha ağır civciv elde etmek için in ovo besin maddesi olarak kullanılabileceği, farklı ekstraksiyon metotlarının ya da farklı polen çeşitlerinin de araştırılması gerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır.
