Female (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200948) and male (n\u2009=\u200916) partridges were used in a completely randomised design using a 2\u2009\u00d7\u20092 factorial arrangement and were randomly allocated to either of four experimental treatments with four cage replicates of three females and one male each. Female birds received no FO (CON\u2009\u2212\u2009FO) or were orally administered with 0.2\u2009mL (0.24\u2009g)\/500\u2009g body weight FO (CON\u2009+\u2009FO) or 0.2\u2009mL solution containing 10\u2009\u00b5g CT (CT\u2009\u2212\u2009FO), or their combination (CT\u2009+\u2009FO) for 42 successive days. The eggs were collected every two hours between 07:00 and 23:00\u2009h. Administering FO along with CT had considerably increasing effect on the male\u2010biased sex ratio. FO and CT administration interacted to increase serum calcium concentration. Experimental treatments increased the number of leucocytes and erythrocytes. Serum cholesterol was decreased in CON\u2009+\u2009FO partridges compared with those of the CT\u2009\u2212\u2009FO and CON\u2009\u2212\u2009FO birds. There was an interaction between FO and CT on the weight of eggs and hatchlings, number of medium white follicles, diameter and the number of small yellow follicles, the weight and diameter of the fifth follicles (F5), and thickness of secondary mucosal folds in both uterus and vagina. Administering CT alone or with FO increased the feed intake, egg production, oviductal weight, diameter and number of large yellow follicles, the weight and diameter of the second (F2) and first (F1) follicles compared with those of the CON\u2009\u2013\u2009FO females. Further studies are required to elucidate the mechanisms by which such changes in the sex ratio skew, ovary\u00a0and oviduct are mediated.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jpn.13817","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,14]],"date-time":"2023-04-14T12:29:39Z","timestamp":1681475379000},"page":"1206-1215","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Calcitriol combined with fish oil in the diet of Chukar partridge can ameliorate laying performance by improving oviduct histomorphometry and functions"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"107","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4929-6909","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arman","family":"Abdollahi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, School of Agriculture Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4679-6115","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amir","family":"Akhlaghi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, School of Agriculture Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad Javad","family":"Zamiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, School of Agriculture Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shahryar","family":"Kargar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, School of Agriculture Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2589-1463","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zarbakht","family":"Ansari Pirsaraei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science Sari Agricultural Science and Natural Resources University Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Banafsheh","family":"Nasrollahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, School of Agriculture Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Younes","family":"Kamali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Basic Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.theriogenology.2021.03.018"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","first-page":"76","article-title":"The effects of different fish oil levels on productive and reproductive performance and blood attributes in female Chukar partridges (Alectoris chukar)","volume":"11","author":"Abdollahi A.","year":"2020","journal-title":"Research Animal Production"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3382\/ps\/pez502"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/agriculture12050642"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ani9080573"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Effect of corticosterone and hen body mass on primary sex ratio in laying hen (Gallus gallus), using unincubated eggs","volume":"90","author":"Aslam M.
