“…The serum GSH-Px level was lower in the group that received 0.5% thyme than in the control group (Table 3). Similarly, in another study, the liver GSH-Px level was decreased in the Japanese quails that were given thyme (Drozd et al, 2016). However, Abd El-Hack and Alagawany (2015) and Gumus et al, (2017) pointed to an increase in the level of the relevant cytokine.…”

The study aims to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of thyme on the antioxidant defence mechanisms, immune system, inflammatory cytokines, and production performance and egg quality traits in laying hens. A total of 120, 24-week-old Lohmann-Brown-Classic laying hens were used in this study. The experimental groups were fed on a ration containing 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1% thyme, respectively for 30 days while the control group received the standard chicken feed. Certain parameters such as feed conversion rate (g/g), egg production rate (%), egg mass (g/hen/day) and egg quality were evaluated. Furthermore, differential leukocyte count, heterophil/lymphocyte ratio and certain cytokine levels were assessed. Serum malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbic acid and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels were measured to assess the effects of thyme on the antioxidant defence system. Serum IL-4 and GSH-Px activity levels decreased in the 0.1% and 0.5 % thyme groups, respectively compared to those of the control group (p ≤ 0.05). The leukocyte differential counts, as well as heterophil/lymphocyte ratio, did not differ significantly except for a gradual increase in leukocytes and a significant decrease in basophils with the increasing thyme concentration. Likewise, thyme supplementation did not affect performance parameters but exhibited a significant impact on egg yolk color intensity while shell weight, shell thickness, and breaking strength were negatively affected (p ≤ 0.05). It can be deduced that the thyme-supplemented diet did not elicit positive effects on either the antioxidant defence system or the downregulation of inflammation. That the hens experienced no difficulty in consuming the thymesupplemented diet in the study is considered promising for further studies to be carried out, concerning the effects of higher concentrations of thyme.

Breeding is main factor to evaluate individual superiority in livestock population. Early estimation is very useful in efficient selection process because it can make short interval generation in seed selection. The aim of this study is to measure breeding value and the influence of GH gene generation to quail in 4 weeks old. 100 female quails an 20 female quails in 4 weeks old are divided in high body weight and low body weight, and collecting the blood sample. The DNA is isolated, amplified and continued with PCR-RFLP. Breeding value are counted based on genotype from Mspl enzyme digestion. GH gene frequency are obtained by AA genotype = (Σ genotype AA / Σ in population) × 100%, AB = (Σ genotype AB / Σ in population) × 100%, BB = (Σ genotype BB / Σ in population) × 100%. The result of this study are obtained for low body weigt AA = 21,15, AB = 20,70 and BB = 20,25, AA = 23,02, AB = 22,38 and BB = 21,75. GH gene frequency is low body weight AA = 0,21, AB = 0,49 and BB = 0,30, while high body weight AA = 0,47, AB = 0,43 and BB = 0,10.
