Photoperiodic-dependent histomorphological changes in the excurrent duct system of helmeted guinea fowl subjected to short day (8L:16D), long-day (16L:8D) light/dark cycles and exogenous melatonin

Photoperiodic-dependent histomorphological changes in the excurrent duct system of helmeted guinea fowl subjected to short day (8L:16D), long-day (16L:8D) light/dark cycles and exogenous melatonin

In the present study, the influence of varying photoperiods [short day light 8L:16D, long day light 16L;8D] and exogeneous melatonin on the excurrent duct system of male helmeted guinea fowl was investigated using histo-morphological and histometric approaches. A total of twenty-eight (28) guinea fo...
