BACKGROUND: Birds are the group of tetrapods that exhibit the greatest diversity in taxonomy and ecology. Limb development is a major focus of developmental and evolutionary biology research.
AIM: This study characterized the variances in histomorphometry of skeletogenesis in precocial embryos, such as Japanese quail (Jq) and Cochin chickens (Cc), and altricial embryos, including Racing pigeons (Rp) and Cockatiel birds (Cb).
METHODS: Six embryos were collected on days 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 of incubation. Three embryos were prepared and stained with Alcian Blue for chondrification and Alizarin Red for ossified bones. The remaining three embryos were subjected to histological evaluation.
RESULTS: Initial signs of ossification appeared in the femur, tibiofibular, and humerus bones of Jq, Rp, and Cb embryos on day 8 and in the bones of Cc on day 10. The statistical study revealed that embryos of different developmental days had considerable variations in average ossified lengths for the humerus of the forelimb, especially Rp, and the femur of the hindlimb, notably in Jq. On day 8, microscopic examination revealed a hypertrophic area with enlarged chondrocytes in the middle and sides of the diaphysis. Osteoblasts significantly augmented the periosteal bone collar around the mid-diaphysis, enhancing its thickness toward the diaphysis center; by day 16, the primary woven bone had developed.
CONCLUSION: This study highlighted the growth rate of the hind limb in precocial embryos, particularly in Jq, which was higher than that in other embryos. These data serve as essential indicators and indispensable parameters for interpreting and elucidating the data collected in these studies.
