assessment of relations between certain incubation qualities of turkey eggs through correlation and regresion analyzes

Abstract

The present study was developed based on data from eggs incubation from three lines of turkeys: Layer Light turkey - LL, Meat Heavy turkey -MH and North Caucasian Bronze Turkey - NCB at 36 weeks of age. The degree of influence of the incubation traits was determined: number of set eggs, number of fertilized eggs, number of dead embryos 1st review and number of dead embryos 2nd review on the number of hatched turkeys by applying a correlation analysis. The obtained relations were presented by mathematical models compiled after using a regression analysis. The significant dependencies between these signs were demonstrated by mathematical models compiled using regression analysis. Mathematical models were built to present these relations in analytical form.
