Blood Gas Disturbances and Disproportionate Body Weight Distribution in Broilers With Wooden Breast
Wooden breast syndrome is a widespread and economically important myopathy and vasculopathy of fast growing, commercial broiler chickens, primarily affecting birds with high feed efficiency and large breast muscle yield. To investigate potential systemic physiological differences between birds affec...
