Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the effects of summer conditions in Antalya province on body temperatures and blood gasses of broilers of different genotypes. The temperature, humidity and total heat of inside air were measured as 28.350.98oC, %54.521.9, 14.980.65kcal·kg-1 in the 4th week; 27.130.63oC, %85.581.98, 18.280.36 kcal·kg-1 in the 5th and 28.981.16oC, %62.85 3.58, 16.630.66 kcal·kg-1 in the 6th. There was a significant difference between the genotypes for body temperatures at the noon hours (14-16 pm) and, the domestic genotype had higher body temperatures (42.070.317oC) than the heterozygous naked neck genotype (41.730.191oC). Also in the morning hours (4-6 am), there was a significant difference between the body temperatures of genotypes as it was measured 41.380.062oC for the domestic genotype and 41.190.119oC for the naked neck genotype. There was not found a significant difference between the genotypes for pH, PCO2 and PO2 values in the 5th week, but the difference was found significant between the genotypes for only PCO2 values in the 6th week.

Antalya İli Yaz Koşullarının Farklı Genotiplerdeki Etlik Piliçlerin Vücut Sıcaklıklarına ve Kan Gazlarına Etkisi

Abstract

Araştırmada Antalya ili yaz koşullarının farklı genotiplerdeki etlik piliçlerin vücut sıcaklıklarına ve kan gazlarına olan etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Kümes içi sıcaklık, nem ve havanın içerdiği toplam ısı değerleri sırasıyla dördüncü haftada 28.350.98oC, %54.521.9, 14.980.65kcal·kg-1; beşinci haftada 27.130.63oC, %85.581.98, 18.280.36 kcal·kg-1 ve altıncı haftada 28.981.16 oC, %62.85 3.58, 16.630.66 kcal·kg-1 olarak saptanmıştır.Gün içi sıcaklığın en yüksek olduğu saatlerde (1400-1600) ölçülen vücut sıcaklıkları bakımından genotipler arasında önemli bir farklılık saptanmış olup yerel genotipte (42.070.317 oC) heterozigot çıplak boyunlu genotipten (41.730.191 oC) daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Gün içi sıcaklığın en düşük olduğu saatlerde de (0400-0600) ölçülen vücut sıcaklıkları bakımından genotipler arasında önemli farklılık ortaya çıkmış olup yerel genotipte (41.380.062 oC) heterozigot çıplak boyunlu genotipinkinden (41.190.119 oC) daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Beşinci haftada pH, PCO2 ve PO2 değerleri bakımından genotipler arasında önemli bir farklılık olmamasına karşın, altıncı haftada PCO2 değerleri bakımından genotipler arasındaki farklılıkların önemli olduğu saptanmıştır.
