Along with the storage time, in the egg content there occur changes based of which their quality and condition of egg freshness may be determined. The aim of the study was determination of the effect of 7-week storage period at a temperature of 4°C on the quality of Japanese quail eggs. The eggs were analyzed at one-week intervals to determine their morphological composition. No statistically significant differences were observed between particular dates of evaluation within the range of the egg weight and its proportional loss, which in the 7th week was 2.78%. No statistically significant differences were observed in the weight of yolk and albumen in total. The amount of albumen did not change, while the Haugh units ranged from 91.4 in the 1st week to 87.2 in the 7th week of storage. These results show that quail eggs are characterized by a long period of retaining freshness.
Cells of the pterygopalatine ganglion. in quail are elliptical , oval and often spindle shape. They have. single nuclei, which are spindle or lentiform in shape. The rough endoplasmic reticulum was observed in a great amount, especially in the vicinity of nucleus. It was organized in structure corresponding to Nissl's body. The mitochondria are present mainly at the periphery of the cells. Several flat, elongated cisterns from the Golgi apparatus.. There are a few lysosomes, mostly primary, ones. Profiles of the end section of axons and button synapses were observed. They contain mainly agranular vesicles.
The effect of mowing on nextyear nest predation was studied in grassland areas on the outskirts of Cracow (south Poland). In 2004 and 2005, nesting success at three sites with two plots each – one unmowed for 2–3 years and one mowed every year – was assessed experimentally with artificial nests baited with two Japanese Quail Coturnix japonica L. eggs. Biomass samples were collected for estimations of the standing crop of vegetation. Mowing was found to be correlated with nest predation pressure on the unmowed plots in two meadows that had greater vegetation cover. At the third site, nest predation and vegetation cover did not differ between the mowed and unmowed plots. All selected sites were classified as Arrhenatherum elatius grassland. Also birds communities of study sites were similar in regard to occurrence of small ground-nesting passerine species: Grasshopper Warbler Locustella naevia Bodd., Reed Bunting Emberiza schoeniclus L., Whinchat Saxicola rubetra L., Yellow Wagtail Motacilla flava L. Artificial nests were destroyed mainly by corvids and only few percent were recognized as destroyed by mammals. The intensity of nest destruction differed greatly between years, probably because Magpies Pica pica L. were less active in 2005.
Our study investigated morphological changes in enterocytes of adult Japanese quails that were given cadmium (CdCl₂) perorally and individually by tube, dissolved in water at a dose of 0.24 mg Cd per animal per day, for 57 and 118 days. The aim of our study was to observe chronic effects of cadmium on the structure of duodenal epithelium by means of light microscopy (LM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). On day 57, following peroral administration of cadmium, necrotizing enterocytes were found in the apical part of intestinal villi and their occurrence was only sporadic. Particularly on day 118 following cadmium administration, we were able to observe clusters of 2-3 necrotizing cells in the apical part of intestinal villi. However, the structure and ultrastructure of goblet cells was normal. The most notable finding in ultrastructure of all enterocytes of treated animals was the damage to cell organelles. Mitochondria and cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum were more or less damaged and the cytoplasm contained flocculent material, particularly in the basal part of enterocytes. Some enterocytes exhibited signs of necrosis, shrivelled nucleus and damaged organelles within the markedly electrondense cytoplasm. Microvilli on the apical surface of these enterocytes were damaged and disintegrated. Junctions between cells of the intestinal epithelium were disturbed, and a present of intracellular plaques associated with the adhering and occluding junctions was observed. Cadmium caused the formation of gaps within the specialized junctional complexes, and injury to enterocytes results in the breakdown of the intercellular attachments and the sloughing of the injured cells into the intestinal lumen.
Molecular technologies based on markers indicating differences among individuals at the DNA level can play an important role in genetic improvement of carcass traits through marker or gene assisted selection. The purpose of this study was to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) of chromosome 3 affecting carcass traits on Japanese quail using microsatellite markers. Two white and wild strains of Japanese quail were crossed reciprocally and the F1 generation was created. The F2 generation was generated by intercrossing F1 birds. Phenotypic data including weights of hot and cold carcasses,carcass parts and internal organs were collected from 422 F2 birds. The total mapping population (472 birds) was genotyped for microsatellite markers. QTL analysis was performed using the least squares regression interval mapping method. Significant QTL were identified for hot and chilled carcass weights, liver weight, head percentage, uropygial gland percentage, intestine percentage, ovary weight, uropygial gland weight, pancreas percentage (0-36 cM with an additive effect),proventriculus percentage, head weight (6-20 cM with a dominance effect), and gizzard percentage (0 cM with an imprinting effect).
