Genetic variations alter production and behavioral responses following heat stress in 2 strains of laying hens.

Poultry science - 1 Feb 2013

Mack L A, Felver-Gant J N, Dennis R L, Cheng H W

Abstract excerpt

Genetic differences alter the type and degree of hens' responses and their ability to adapt to a stressor. This study examined the effects of genotypic variations on the productivity and behavior of laying hens following heat stress (HS). Two strains of White Leghorn hens were used: DXL (Dekalb XL), a commercial strain individually selected for egg production and KGB (kind, gentle bird), a strain selected for...
