TL;DR: In this article, the effect of exposure to different colors of light during egg incubation on the reproductive parameters of male and female Japanese quails was evaluated, and it was concluded that under the studied conditions, the incubation of quail eggs under white, red, and green LED lamps does not influence the reproductive characteristics of the quails.

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of seasons on live weight, body condition, mass motility, percentage of live spermatozoa, and sperm-cell concentration of Creole roosters (Gallus domesticus) from Mexico was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The interest of hyperosmolar extenders in rooster sperm cryopreservation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the potential benefit of hyperosmolar extender during the freezing-thawing process in rooster sperm in order to minimize the amount of intracellular water and reduce the impact of intra-cell icecrystal during freezing process.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Reserpine on the Metabolism of Turkey Semen
TL;DR: Although reports have been published on the general effects of reserpine on fertility in birds, no work has been done on the differential effect of Reserpine, with respect to sex, in mature turkeys on fertility

A Method of Obtaining Spermatozoa from the Domestic Fowl
W. H. Burrows,J. P. Quinn +1 more
TL;DR: The method presented in this paper consists of a manual elicitation of an ejaculatory response which is undoubtedly reflex in nature and can be obtained in a short period of time.

Selective Fertilization in Fowls
TL;DR: An attempt was made to find out whether there was any selective preference in the union of sperm and egg cells in poultry, and it was found that self-fertilization was more effective or easier to make than cross fertilization.

The Influence of Certain Feeds Upon the Production of Spermatozoa by the Domestic Chicken
TL;DR: Experimental studies pertaining to the factors which may influence fertility in poultry have been limited to hatchability thus far, and for obvious reasons such studies have been confined to the female.

A study of the spermatozoon of the fowl, with particular reference to osmiophilic bodies in the sperm head
F. B. Adamstone,L. E. Card +1 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to learn something of the nature of the bead‐like bodies which occur in the head of the sperm of the fowl since it was found in a previous study that they are apparently affected in a characteristic manner by vitamin E deficiency.
