Curva De Crescimento De Codornas De Corte Por Meio De Modelos De Regressão Não-Lineares

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate different non-linear regression models to describe the growth curve of male and female meat quail. The study involved 30,410 records of body weight originally measured weekly from the 1st to the 42nd day of life of meat quail participating in the Breeding Program of the Federal University of Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri. Body weight was separated into the male and female classes and subjected to the non-linear Brody, Gompertz, Logistic, MMF (Morgan-Mercer-Flodin), Richa… Show more

“…Mota et al (2015) also reported that Gompertz was able to predict growth rate and weight at adulthood of all quail genotypes evaluated, among a total of seven different strains of meat-type and one laying quail strain. In addition to these authors, several others in the literature (Marcato et al, 2010;Narinc et al, 2010;Sakomura et al, 2011;Mazucheli et al, 2011;Grieser et al, 2015b;Rocha-Silva et al, 2016) consider the Gompertz function to be the most adequate for describing growth and deposition of body nutrients in birds.…”

“…DIC statistics of the above-mentioned models indicated that both Gompertz and Richards's functions presented a good fit to the data, being superior to the Logistic model considering the goodness of fit. Gompertz function has also been considered by many authors in the literature as the best option to describe bird growth, relating weight and age (MARCATO et al, 2010;MAZUCHELI et al, 2011;SANTOS, 2014;GRIESER et al, 2015b;MOTA et al, 2015;FINCO et al, 2016;ROCHA-SILVA et al, 2016).…”

“…Eleroğlu, Yıldırım, Şekeroğlu, Çoksöyler, and Duman (2014) verified that logistic model was more suitable to explain the weight of poultry reared in organic systems. On the other hand, in coturniculture, stands out the works of Narinc, Karaman, Firat, and Aksoy (2010), Mota et al (2015) and Rocha-Silva et al (2016), in which they verified that Gompertz model was indicated as the most suitable to explain the weight growth of quails. Mota et al (2015) observed that the logistic model was the most weight growth to explain the weight of quails.…”

“…The main phenotypic characteristic of commercial interest in meat quail farming is body weight, which has medium to high heritability mainly during the growth phase (Knížetová, Hyánek, Hyankova, & Bělíček, 1995). Japanese quails are excellent laying, but males have been studied for meat production (Raji, Mbap, & Aliyu, 2014;Rocha-Silva et al, 2016).…”
