Characterization and performance evaluation of indigenous geese of Assam
The present study aimed to phenotypically characterize the indigenous geese of Assam, in North East India. These geese were observed to have two types of plumage colour (white and cinnamon) and plumage pattern (solid and bordered); and three different bill colours (black, orange, yellow). The shank...

Abstract | The present study aimed to phenotypically characterize the indigenous geese of Assam, in North East India. These geese were observed to have two types of plumage colour (white and cinnamon) and plumage pattern (solid and bordered); and three different bill colours (black, orange, yellow). The shank and feet colour was found to be mostly orange and sometimes yellow. The eye colour was found to be black, brown and sometimes grey and skin colour as white. The least squares means for body weight at hatching, 4, 6-8 and 12 months and above age were 0.087±0.001, 3.030±0.022, 3.480±0.055 and 3.970±0.025 kg, respectively. The average age at first egg, annual egg production, clutch size and clutch interval were 320.196±2.882 days, 19.886±0.306, 9.897±0.143 and 59.206±0.531 days. Average fertility and hatchability percentage under natural condition were found to be 87.11% and 80.53%, respectively. The study revealed that the indigenous geese of Assam are heavier birds with high potential for meat production with two colour variants, viz. White and Cinnamon in the study area covering four districts. The study generated baseline information on physical characteristics, productive and reproductive performances of indigenous geese of Assam under native field condition which would be of great help in documentation and development of breed descriptors for registration, improvement and conservation. |
