ABSTRACT:
Avian embryos may be cultured in vitro up to blastoderm formation, during embryonic morphogenesis and/or during embryonic growth to hatch. The invention may have applications not only in the genetic engineering of poultry, but also in the investigation of fundamental mechanisms of avian development and in the study of deleterious traits. Moreover, it may afford a desirable alternative to surgical intervention in the laying hen.
