Abstract excerpt
To reduce variability in an embryonic population to be used in experiments with electromagnetic fields, 820 Japanese quail eggs (41 experiments, 20 eggs per experiment) were incubated to analyze different possible inputs of experimental variance. Eggs came from a randombred progenitor population obtained from a poultry farm and selectively maintained. The results show that growth variability is significantly...
