Abstract

The conducted investigations testify that due to the genotypes and their occurrence frequency in mother turkeys, the numerical sex ratio undergoes certain changes in the generation. Males emerged from the mothers with TfAA CpCD HbAB and TfBD CpCD HbAA genotypes make up about 78 and 69 %, whereas females produced from the mothers with TfAA CpCD HbAB and TfBD CpCD HbAA genotypes are 65 %. The number of males and females produced from the mothers with TfAB CpBD HbCC, TfBC CpAB HbBD and TfCD CpCC HbCD genotypes is equal (P>0,999). The obtained outcomes can be applied in the turkey breeding activities as genetic markers.
