Abstract excerpt
The effects of the SAS gene on follicular growth were studied by feeding Sudan IV and Sudan Black B, on follicular maturity by measuring P4 and E2 output of the 5 largest follicles (F1 to F5) in vitro, and on ovarian response (plasma progesterone, P4, and oestradiol, E2) to administration of porcine follicle-stimulating hormone (pFSH) and porcine luteinising hormone (pLH) in old laying hens. Albino hens had fewer...
