| Abstract | ||
| This experiment was investigating the influence of different levels of Amla fruit powder supplementation on testis histology, Hatching and fertility characteristics of Japanese quail reared under hot climate(36±2.5cº). 162 males and females of the Japanese quail were used at the age of 9 weeks, divided randomly into six treatments by 18 females and 9 males each treatment of 3 replicates (six females and three males). Feed and water was ad libitum and the treatments of this study were: T1: Feed standard diet (control treatment). T2andT3 consumed standard diet supplemented with 0.25 gm/kg diet vit. C and 0.08 gm/kg diet Aspirin respectively, T4,T5 and T6 supplemented their ratio with 1, 1.5 and 2 gm/kg diet Amla fruit powder respectively. The results showed that T6 increase significantly percentage of hatchability, area and thickness of germinal layer (GA) and (GT) . while no significantly differences (P≤0.05) observed between experimental treatments in percentage of fertility, area and diameter of seminiferous tubules lumen (LD) and (LA) compared with control treatment. | ||
