Effect of Short, Long and Intermittent Photoperiods on Body Weight and Lipid Response in Male and Female Redheaded Bunting, Emberiza bruniceps
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract: Body weight and lipid response is studied under artificial photoperiods of 24 hrs and other than 24 hrs. The body weight and lipid profile indicated a close similarity in magnitude and pattern under different photoperiods, The light and dark periods consisting of a total 24 hr divided on 03 hr light and 21hr dark (3L:21D), 6L:18D, 8L:16D, 12L:12D, 16L:8D. Under intermittent photoperiods (3L:3D….,4L:4D….,6L: 6D….,and 8L:8D….) and other combinations of light-dark of 24 hrs cycles such as 12L:12D,8L:16D and 16L:8D was also used in the experiment as control. The observations made in the present investigation are in the agreement with the external coincidence.
