In this research, the aim was to investigate the effects of different seasons on body temperatures in Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) selected from different lines for 11 generations. The research was based on four lines, namely high body weight line (HL), low body weight line (LL), and a random bred control line (C) of 5-week body weight and layer line (L) of egg production for 120 days. The seasons, measurement time and lines had a significant effect on body temperatures (P<0.01). In the afternoon hours, inside temperatures and humidity values were determined as 17.88±0.3600C - 55.49±1.93% in winter; 22.87±0.4140C - 58.91±1.85% in spring and 32.33±0.3150C - 54.21±2.34% in summer seasons. Average body temperatures were measured as 40.93 0.0110C and 41.28 0.0110C for morning and afternoon hours, respectively. At the same time, the difference (0.350C) between the morning and afternoon hours for body temperatures was found significant (P<0.01).
Bu çalışmada, farklı mevsimlerin 11 generasyon seleksiyon uygulanmış Japon bıldırcınlarında vücut sıcaklıklarına olan etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal olarak yüksek canlı ağırlık, düşük canlı ağırlık ve yumurta verimi yönünde seleksiyon uygulanan hatlar ile kontrol hattı kullanılmıştır. Mevsimin, ölçüm zamanının ve hatların vücut sıcaklığına etkileri önemli bulunmuştur (P
