A COMPARATIVE MICROMETRY AND HISTOCHEMICAL STUDY ON THE OVIDUCT OF WHITE LEG HORN AND RHODE ISLAND RED CHICKEN

The present work was conducted on oviduct of 20 weeks old White leg horn (WLH) and Rhode Island Red (RIR) chickens to observe and compare the micrometrical variation and histochemical reaction of the oviduct segments between WLH and RIR breeds of chickens.The micrometrical observation revealed tha...
