dc.description.abstractThe study was designed to evaluate the effect of breed and sex on Haematological Parameters in White Pekin and Indigenous ducks of Tamil Nadu at Post Graduate Research Institute in Animal Sciences (PGRIAS), Kattupakkam. A total of eighty numbers of ducks comprising 20 male and 20 female each in White Pekin and Indigenous ducks of Tamil Nadu were reared under standard managemental conditions. Once in every 4 weeks, blood was collected from these ducks individually from 20th week onwards for the duration of two months. Haemoglobin (Hb) concentration, Packed Cell Volume (PCV), Total Erythrocyte Count (TEC) and Total Leucocyte Count (TLC) were estimated and their Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH) and Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) were calculated. The results revealed that Indigenous ducks of Tamil Nadu had significantly (P<0.01) higher Hb, PCV and TEC than White Pekin ducks while Total Leucocyte Count (TLC) and Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH) were significantly (P<0.01) higher in White Pekin ducks. Sex had no significant effect on White Pekin and Indigenous ducks of Tamil Nadu. Hence, it was concluded that breed had greater influence on many of the Haematological Parameters between White Pekin and Indigenous ducks of Tamil Nadu.en_US
