A partial diallel crossing of Rhode Island Red (RIR), White Leghorn (WLH), Fayoumi (FO), Desi normal (DN) and Desi dwarf (DD) produced RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD, WLH x DD and FO x DD offspring. A total 709 chicks, 75 RIR, 130 WLH, 100 FO, 70 DN, 66 DD, 80 RIR x DD, 80 WLH x DD and 108 FO x DD were reared for studying growth performance up to 18 weeks of age. At 19 weeks, the crossbreds RIR x DD, WLH x DD and FO x DD were separated into normal and dwarf genetic groups on the basis of shank length and thus 11 genetic groups, RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD normal, RIR x DD dwarf, WLH x DD normal, WLH x DD dwarf, FO x DD normal and FO x DD dwarf were obtained. Day-old weight differed significantly (P<0.05) between genotypes. When crossed with Desi dwarf, the day-old weight of RIR, WLH and FO decreased by 7.0, 8.7 and 15.3%. DD chicks had 9.2% lower day-old weight than DN. All DD and DD crossbred chicks had lower feed intake (P<0.01) at all stages of growth. There were no significant differences in daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio and mortality between genotypes (P>0.05). The shank length differed significantly between genotypes at all ages regardless of sex (P<0.01) and differences between genotypes increased at older ages. Shank length of pure breeds and normal crossbreds were similar and much longer than in dwarf crossbreds (P<0.01).

In the present study, a partial diallel crossing was made involving-Rhode Island Red (RIR), White Leghorn (WLH), Fayoumi (FO), Desi normal (DN) and Desi dwarf (DD) to produce eight crossbreds RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD, WLH x DD and FO x DD and according to shank length 11 genetic groups: RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD normal, RIR x DD dwarf, WLH x DD normal, WLH x DD dwarf, FO x DD normal and FO x DD dwarf progenies to compare effects of adw on growth.

A total of 709 chicks obtained from a partial diallel cross involving RIR, WLH, FO, DN and DD chicken produced 75 RIR, 130 WLH, 100 FO, 70 DN, 66 DD, 80 RIR x DD, 80 WLH x DD and 108 FO x DD. The growth of eight genotypes in two replications were compared up to 18 weeks of age. At the beginning of 19 weeks the crossbred RIR x DD, WLH x DD and FO x DD cockerels and pullets were separated according to shank length (Raut et al., 1996). Among the crossbreds, both normal and dwarf offspring were found and thus 11 genetic groups; RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD normal, RIR x DD dwarf, WLH x DD normal, WLH x DD dwarf, FO x DD normal and FO x DD dwarf were obtained. At one day old, all chicks were individually weighed and wing banded, and brooded up to 4 weeks of age. They were housed, separated according to genotype, with a stocking density of 100 cm2/ bird. In growing phase, between one and 126 days of age, 709 chicks of eight different genotypes; RIR, WLH, FO, DN, DD, RIR x DD, WLH x DD and FO x DD had four replications for comparison between genotypes. Sawdust was used as litter with a depth of 7.5 cm during the first 4 weeks of age. Chick feeder and chick drinker were provided during the brooding period. The chicks were given a temperature of 35o C at first week of age, decreasing by 3oC per week up to 28 days of age. At day one and fortnightly, body weight, feed intake, and shank length were recorded. Shank lengths recorded are presented for day old, 4, 18 and 46 weeks of age. The shank length was measured as the distance between claw and hock joint. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) was calculated as feed intake per unit live weight gain. Mortality (%) was recorded daily. All birds were fed ad libitum on a starter diet (0-6 weeks) containing CP-20%, ME (Kcal/Kg)-2798, Ca-1.1%, P-0.5%, Lysine-1.1, Methionine + Cystine -0.8%, then a grower diet (7-8 weeks) containing CP 16.7%, ME (Kcal/Kg) 2700, Ca-1.2%, P-0.6%, Lysine-1.0%, Methionine + Cystine-0.7%. Statistical Analysis All data were for a completely Randomized Design and analysis of variance was performed to compare results between genotypes (Steel and Torrie, 1980) using MSTAT-C statistical computer package program (Russell, 1994). The significant variations of means were identified by Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DMRT).

For both genotypes, shank length increased almost linearly up to 18 weeks and remained similar up to 46 weeks. Rashid (2000) has reported similar trend of shank length in normal and dwarf crossbreds of RIR, WLH and FO as found in this study.
