A sample of 322 eggs were studied from the following breeds and varieties: 'Empordanesa' (White n=23, White-blonde n=39, Red n=40 and Blond n=27), 'Flor d'Ametller' (n=40), 'Gallina Pairal' (n=43) and 'Penedesenca' (Partridge n=40, Crele n=13, Black n=30 and Wheaten n=27). From individual digital pictures of the eggs, maximum length and width were obtained, and from them three indexes were deduced: area, shape and volume ratios. Weight was obtained by direct weighing. Multivariate analysis revealed statistically significant differences among most of the breeds and varieties. Non-differentiated phenotypes included various groups varieties: 'Penedesenca' (except Crele with Black), 'Wheaten Penedesenca' with 'White-blonde Empordanesa', 'Black Penedesenca' with 'Blond Empordanesa', and 'White-blonde Empordanesa' with 'Blond Empordanesa'. The two broody breeds, 'Flor d'Ametller' and 'Gallina Pairal', were differentiated, which corroborates the latter as its own breed. We propose to add egg morphometric descriptions to chicken breed studies. These are based on weight but also on indexes. This kind of work, based on digital images, allows a minimal manipulation of eggs, so that they can be used for further studies allowing exchanges with other research groups.

Paired left-right asymmetries of the hoof surface in the Pyrenean Catalan yearlings are less marked among hindlimbs
Parés Casanova, Pere-Miquel; López-Navarro, Noelia (Veterinary Academy, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, 2020-12-24)Most published researches that describe an equine hoof form are based on lineal and angular measurements. Here we apply geometric morphometric methods to study symmetries between fore and hind pairs in a pure horse breed. ... -
Geometric Morphometrics to the Study of Skull Sexual Dimorphism in aLocal Domestic Goat Breed
Parés Casanova, Pere-Miquel (OMICS International, 2015-11-20)The existence of sexual dimorphism in the White Rasquera goat breed has long been known, with males being larger than females. However, no study so far has explored this dimorphism separately in its size and shape components. ...
