Abstract

Kuluçka randımanı, damızlıkların elde edilmesinden başlayıp, onların bakım ve besleme koşullarına, kuluçkahane uygulamalarına kadar olan tüm süreci kapsayan yönetimsel bir sürecin sonucudur. Söz konusu süreci etkileyen her bir faktörün ve bunlar arasındaki etkileşimlerin bilinmesi embriyo kayıplarını azaltmada doğru yönetim stratejilerinin belirlenmesini sağlayacaktır. Kuluçka randımanı aslında her ne sebeple olursa olsun gerçekleşebilecek embriyonik kayıpların minimize edilmesi olarak düşünülebilir. Bu bağlamda embriyonik ölümlerin bazı kümes hayvanı türlerinde yumurtaların %15'ine kadar ulaşılabildiği düşünüldüğünde konunun maliyet ve karlılık açısından ne denli önemli olduğu görülmektedir.
Bu makalede, kanatlı hayvan türlerinde embriyonik ölümlere sebep olan genetik ve çevresel faktörlerin irdelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Kuluçka randımanı ve işletme karlılığını etkileyen bu faktörlerin ortaya konmasının ülkemiz kanatlı sektörüne önemli katkılar sağlayacağı öngörülmektedir.

Embryo Losses on Poultry

Abstract

Hatchability is the result of a managerial process that covers the entire process from the acquisition of breeders to their care and feeding conditions and hatchery practices. Knowing each factor affecting that process and the interactions between them will enable the determination of the proper management strategies in reducing embryo losses. Incubation efficiency can actually be thought of as minimizing embryonic losses that may occur for whatever reason. In this context, considering that embryonic losses can reach up to 15% of eggs in some poultry species, it is seen how important the issue is in terms of cost and profitability.
This article aims to examine the genetic and environmental factors that cause embryonic deaths in poultry species. It is predicted that scrutinizing these factors affecting hatchability and operating profitability will provide important contributions to the poultry industry for our country.
