ABSTRACT Introduction Broiler chickens are particularly vulnerable to elevated temperatures compared to mammals because they have feathers instead of sweat glands, undergo rapid growth and are intensively bred in commercial systems. Serotonin, as neurotransmitter, is essential for the development of...
