Application of Bertalanffy and Logistic Growth Curve Fitting Model in Chicken

Abstract

China is one of the most abundant chicken resources in the world. The local chicken breeds in the "Chinese livestock and poultry genetic resources Chronicles" have reached 107. In this paper, the nonlinear growth models have been briefly summarized and recent advances studies using Bertalanffy and Logistic Growth Curve Fitting Model in Chicken have also been reviewed. The significance and problems existing in the study of Bertalanffy and Logistic Growth Curve Fitting Model in Chicken in terms of future chicken research and breeding work were also discussed.
