Embryonic thermal manipulation has short and long-term effects on the development and the physiology of the Japanese quail.

Embryonic thermal manipulation has short and long-term effects on the development and the physiology of the Japanese quail.

In vertebrates, the embryonic environment is known to affect the development and the health of individuals. In broiler chickens, the thermal-manipulation (TM) of eggs during the incubation period was shown to improve heat tolerance at slaughter age (35 days of age) in association with several modifi...
