The purpose of this study was to determine some clinical, radiological, haematological and biochemical findings in a female gazelle, 9 months old, with rickets. In clinical examination, the animal was unable to stand up easily, its legs were bent and walking was difficult. The medullar cannals were wide and the cortex was thin in the long bones on the radiogram. The Ca level (6.8 mg/dl) was found to be within the minimum normal limits in the biochemical examinations of blood serum. Also, serum P level (1.6 mg/dl) was ascertained to be markedly lower than normal levels. In addition, serum ALP …

Mono And Multiphasic Analysis Of Growth Curves Selected Of A Japanese Quail Line At 5-Week's Body Weight, Handan Çamdevi̇ren, Bahar Taşdelen
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
In this research, monophasic, diphasic and triphasic logistic growth curve functions used to introduce the growing of the body weight in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) are presented. In male and female Japanese quail, the diphasic growth curve fits better than the other growth curves because of residual variance, autocorrelation and determination coefficients. In addition, the diphasic growth function is compared with the monophasic growth function to study the relationship between these two approaches for describing growth curves.

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
This study was carried out to estimate the heritabilities and the genetic and phenotypic correlations between some milk production traits in Holstein cows in Ceylanpınar State Farm. A mixed-model equation was used in the study. The heritabilities and the genetic correlations were estimated by the Restricted Maximum Likelihood method (REML) for all the variables. Phenotypic correlations were estimated from measurements of the traits. Paternal half-sib correlations were used for the estimation of the heritability values. The heritabilities for the 2x305ME milk yield, the lactation length, the length of the dry period, and the calving interval were estimated to be 0.169±0.0287, …
