The lambs were fattened on two different diets consisting of pelleted concentrate and alfalfa hay in predetermined ratios: 70% concentrate + 30% forage and 70% forage + 30% concentrate. When the lambs reached 40\u00a0kg, they were slaughtered, and duodenum tissue samples were collected for analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Histological characteristics were assessed by evaluating duodenal tissues from lambs of three breeds\u2014Akkaraman, Karayaka and Herik\u2014across the two dietary groups within each breed, and the essential parameters of the villus were measured. Akkaraman lambs exhibited lower goblet cell count and villus height (VH) as compared to Karayaka and Herik lambs. Goblet cell count and VH were higher in concentrate\u2010fed lambs, except for Karayaka lambs. However, goblet cell density was similar across Akkaraman, Karayaka and Herik lambs. Herik lambs had higher VH, villus width (VW) and villus surface area as compared to Akkaraman and Karayaka. Villus parameters were generally lower in concentrate\u2010fed lambs, except for Herik lambs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, the study suggests that altering the roughage\u2010concentrate ratio did not significantly affect duodenal mucosa parameters. However, differences were observed across genotypes, particularly in Herik lambs, indicating potential associations between duodenal parameters and genotype.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.70145","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,10]],"date-time":"2025-01-10T15:26:22Z","timestamp":1736522782000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparative Study of Duodenal Histology in Three Lamb Breeds Fed Two Different Rations"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3309-2258","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nurcan","family":"Delice","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of Histology and Embryology Ondokuz Mayis University  Samsun Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9310-1200","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tugrul","family":"Ertugrul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of Histology and Embryology Ondokuz Mayis University  Samsun Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6834-7244","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Serife","family":"Tutuncu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of Histology and Embryology Ondokuz Mayis University  Samsun Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6464-0371","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mustafa","family":"Ugurlu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of Animal Breeding and Husbandry Ondokuz May\u0131s University  Samsun Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7427-5416","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Akif","family":"Uysal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of Animal Breeding and Husbandry Ondokuz May\u0131s University  Samsun Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,10]]},"reference":[{"volume-title":"Sheep Breeding","year":"2000","author":"Ak\u00e7ap\u0131nar H.","key":"e_1_2_10_2_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12917-021-02946-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtemb.2021.126897"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.livsci.2020.104189"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4025\/actascianimsci.v44i1.53686"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.anifeedsci.2017.09.012"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ar.1090690105"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11250-019-01863-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-89503-1_8"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5958\/0974-360X.2019.00406.2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ani12070878"},{"issue":"7","key":"e_1_2_10_13_1","first-page":"1806","article-title":"Histomorphometric Evaluation of Small Intestinal Mucosa of Red Jungle Fowl and Commercial Broiler From One Day to Four Months of Age","volume":"11","author":"Kadhim K.
