Grey Partridge (Perdix perdix) Science Article 3 abstract A three-year field-based study of 85 radio-tagged female wild grey partridges Perdix perdix was undertaken during 200 -2003 in East Anglia, England, to investigate possible links between chick diet and parasite-induced disease. The females produced 30 broods, whose diet measured by f cal analysis was typical of […]

Grey Partridge (Perdix perdix) Science Article 1 abstract The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region I (CR1) of 138 wild and 36 captive grey partridges (Perdix perdix) was sequenced. Representing two major mitochondrial DNA lineages that differed by 15 nucleotide substitutions (3.7%), the Finnish lineage dominated in the wild, whereas the European lineage dominated in the […]

Grey Partridge (Perdix perdix) Science Article 2 abstract The grey partridge Perdix perdix is an important management concern in the European farmland. Pair numbers severely declined during the 20th century. As a result, the species has been listed in SPEC category 3, i.e. ‘Unfavourable’ conservation status in Europe. The largest population of western Europe occurs […]

Chukar Partridge (Alectoris chukar) Science Article 1 abstract We used multilocus proteine lectrophoresis to analyze population genetics of Chukars collected at five locations along a north-south gradient in Israel. These birds belongedto two nominal subspecies, the northern A. c. cypriotes, and southern A. c. sinaica.Chukars from China were used as an outgroup. ETTORE RANDI, The […]

Chukar Partridge (Alectoris chukar) Science Article 4 abstract The Chukar (Alectoris chukar cypriotes) is the most common game bird in Cyprus. Since 1990 the Cypriot Government has established a restocking program with captive

Chukar Partridge (Alectoris chukar) Science Article 10 abstract The decline of over-hunted red-legged (Alectoris rufa) and rock (A. graeca) partridge populationshas been contrasted with massive releases of captive-reared birds, often hybrids withnon-indigenous A. chukar. Released interspecific hybrids raise the risks of introgressivehybridisation, and can contribute to further depress the fitness of native populations Marina Barilani, […]

Chukar Partridge (Alectoris chukar) Science Article 8 abstract This study was conducted to determine growth performance of partridge (A. chukar) fed by dietsinclude different level of CP through 0-4 weeks of age. First, second, third and fourth groups had 28, 26, 24and 22 % CP in diet, respectively. Turgay Oengul et al, International Journal of […]
