A morphometric study on the uropygial gland of the male and female checks given diets containing red hot pepper

Bu araştırmada kırmızı acı biberli rasyonla beslenmenin glandula uropygialis üzerine olan etkisi erkek ve dişi civcivlerde karşılaştırmalı olarak morfometrik yönden incelendi. Bunun için 100 erkek civciv (50'si kontrol, 50'si deney) ile 100 dişi civciv (50'si kontrol, 50'si deney) kullanıldı. Kontrol grubunu oluşturan hayvanlar normal tavuk rasyonu ile deney grubunu oluşturan hayvanlar da kontrol grubuna verilen rasyona %1 oranında (lkg. yeme 10 gr) kırmızı acı biber ilavesi yapılarak beslendi. Araştırma günlük erkek ve dişi civcivler ile başlamış ve 5 ay sürmüştür. Bulgular çalışma süresince aylık olarak alındı. Glandula uropygialis'e ait değerlerin bütün aylarda hem kontrol hem de deney gruplarında erkeklerde daha fazla olduğu belirlendi. Erkek ve dişi kontrol gruplarında 4. ayda, erkek ve dişi deney gruplarında 4. ve 5. aylarda glandula uropygialis'e ait bütün değerlerin arasındaki farklılıkların önemli olduğu görüldü. Sonuç olarak, bu araştırmada toksik olmayan dozda kırmızı acı biberli rasyonla beslenmenin glandula uropygialis'in morfometrisini, erkeklerde dişilere nazaran daha fazla etkilediği belirlendi.

Erkek ve dişi civcivlerde kırmızı acı biberli rasyonla beslenmenini glandula uropygialis' in morfometrisi üzerine etkisinin incelenmesi

In this study, the effect of feeding with diet containing red hot pepper on the uropygial gland was investigated comparatively and quantitatively. For this reason, 100 male and 100 female chicks were divided into two equal groups as the control and experimental that each contained 50 chicks. The animals in control groups were fed with normal chicken diet and the animals in experimental groups were fed with the same diet, that containing 1 % red hot pepper (lOg for lkg feed). The study was began with new born chicks and was continued for 5 months and, the findings were obtained monthly. The values related to the uropygial gland were found to be greater in males than females in both control and experimental groups in all months. The noticeable finding is that the all parameters in control and experimental groups were different statistically between male and female chicks in 4th month and 4th and 5th months, respectively. As a result of the study, it was found that the effect of feeding diet containing red hot pepper in non-toxic dose on the morphometry of the uropygial gland was greater in males compared to females.
