Selection strategies for body weight and reduced ascites susceptibility in broilers.

Poultry science - 1 Apr 2005

Pakdel A, Bijma P, Ducro B J, Bovenhuis H

Abstract excerpt

Ascites syndrome is a metabolic disorder in broilers. Mortality due to ascites results in significant economic losses and has a negative impact on animal welfare. It has been shown that genetic factors play a considerable role in susceptibility of birds to ascites, which offers perspectives for selection against this syndrome. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the consequences of alternative selection...
