Predicting of some productive traits of the meat broilers Ross 308 depending on the level of potassium in the blood
Journal Title: Journal of Research in Ecology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
The study was conducted in the poultry field of the department of animal production, College of Agriculture, University of Baghdad in Abu Ghraib (20 km west of Baghdad) for the period from 15.10.2017 to 27.11.2017, in order to measure the level of potassium in the blood of 100 birds from Ross 308 meat breeds and its relation to production performance through the adoption of correlation coefficient and regression or by dividing the birds according to the levels of potassium in the blood to three categories (low below 8 and medium 8-10 higher than 40 mmol/l) and level potassium in the blood and two periods (14 days and 35 days of the age of birds) and the impact of some of the qualities of productivity. The results of the present study showed a significant difference in the level of potassium in blood and measured at the age of 14 days on average body weight and weight increase, as well as a significant difference in some dimensions of the body according to the level of potassium in the blood at 14 days for the categories of potassium low, medium and high. And a negative correlation in the level of potassium in the blood at the age of 14 days with body weight and rate of weight increase, positive correlation in the level of potassium in the blood at the age of 14 days and measured dimensions of the body
