Abstract SUUUu.aHY Blood Herum samples collected f r-o.n 425 Fayoumi l:.yers representing 40 sire frl.iIlilien and 241 d:;m f:’~’1ilieD wer-e used to determino the uroa, uric uci.d unu {Llkl’lil1f.: pho:J.:.)h;.,tase types and frequencies of alleles controlling their occurence, as well us th.eir effects on blood seru;n co.nponent.s and productive traits. The genetic correls.tion coefficients among the studied trults were also estimated. The obtained reaul ts rnny be aumrne r i.z ed LU f ol l.own : 1- Two levels for each. locus ••e..r.e det er-mf.ned , Both Lm levels of urea (64.9 %) and uric acid (53.3%) were mare frequent than the hioh level of euch. Howev cr-, the low level of alkuline phoaphc tnae (45.9%) W:’9 leas frequent. determined by a single locus with two allele~. The ~llleles for tne low level of each of ure3 und uric acid were assumed to be dominant to that of the hIgh lev~lt whilp the reverse. trend was found w1th alkaline phosphatase. 3- The respective gene frequencies were 0.408 Va. 0.592 for urea locus, 0.)17 Va. 0.68) for uric acid locuR and 0.677 Va. 0.32) for the i~lkul1ne .Phoaphllt;ltlt· ] f)(’ll;~. 4- Both &’e~e•• l ’Ye allele of urea and uric acid 1Dcr8&8iBg each of glucose, urea. uric acid, total proteins, alkaline phosphatase, traDB8m1nase, egg number and improvins age at sexual maturity. 64 5- Botb recessive Q11elG8 of urea and increased each of serum glucose, urea, albumen, bilirubin. alkf.l.linepnospnatase, transum.1nnse, Hgg nu;nber u nd improving age of sexual maturity. 6- BottL recessJ;”e alleliia ot uric acid and ulkal1ne phosphatase increased each of serum glucose, urea, alakline phosphatase, trans-aminase, egg number and improving age of sexual maturity. 7- Both rec&ss1ve alleles of urea, uric acid and alkaline phosphatase increased each of glucose, urea, alkaline pbosphatase, transaminase, egg n~~ber and improved a.ge of sexual mAturity. The three loci had no significant effect on both body. weight at sexual maturity and egg weight. 8- To produce strains of chickenS w~ich would be chur~cterized with early sexual maturity and more eC0 number, pUllets should be oelected tlffiOnC birds with tbe recessive 61- .1e18. of botb urea, urlc ac1dand alkall.ne pnoapl1&tase• |
