Evaluación de las curvas de crecimiento en tres líneas locales de codornices utilizando cuatro modelos no lineales diversos
Resumen
Objetivo del estudio: Examinar los patrones de crecimiento en tres líneas locales de codornices utilizando diversas funciones de crecimiento flexibles y determinar el modelo no lineal más adecuado para describir su rendimiento de crecimiento.
Área de estudio: La investigación se llevó a cabo y se validó en la Sala de Investigación de Codornices de la Universidad de Salahaddin-Erbil, Estación Grdarasha, Departamento de Recursos Animales, y Facultad de Ciencias de Ingeniería Agrícola.
Materiales y métodos: Se estudiaron un total de 540 polluelos de codorniz de tres líneas locales (Desert, Brown y White) para evaluar los patrones de crecimiento utilizando cuatro modelos no lineales (Gom-pertz-Laird, Logístico, Richards y Von Bertalanffy). La comparación de modelos se basó en R², R²adj, AIC y BIC para determinar el mejor ajuste. Se estimaron los parámetros de crecimiento, incluyendo el peso asintótico (β0), el índice de madurez (β0), el peso en el punto de inflexión (IPW) y el tiempo en el punto de inflexión (IPT).
Resultados principales: Tanto la línea genética como el sexo influyeron significativamente en los parámetros de crecimiento, con las codornices Desert mostrando un mejor rendimiento de crecimiento y mayores pesos corporales en comparación con las líneas Brown y White. El modelo de Gompertz proporcionó el mejor ajuste, basado en valores más altos de R² y R²adj y valores más bajos de AIC y BIC. Las codornices Desert presentaron los mayores pesos asintóticos (β0), mientras que las codornices White exhibieron el índice de madurez (β0) más alto, lo que sugiere tasas de crecimiento más rápidas. Las codornices Desert mostraron valores más altos de IPW e IPT, con las hembras madurando más tarde que los machos.
Aspectos destacados de la investigación: Los hallazgos proporcionan información valiosa para mejorar los programas de cría de codornices, lo que puede optimizar su eficiencia de crecimiento y rendimiento cárnico.
