“…Previous studies have found that color light information influences the various physiological effects in avian species. For example, the different wavelengths of light affect the growth and development of quails , turkey and broilers ; the cellular and humoral immune responses of turkey hens and broilers ; the mucosal immunological barriers of the small intestine of posthatching chickens and chick embryos ; reproduction of Japanese quails and geese ; the muscular growth of broilers ; and the productive performance of laying hens and broilers . These results demonstrated that the changes in organism physiological functions were induced by environmental light.…”

“…A previous study reported that RL increased the expression of GnRH‐I mRNA in white leghorn hens . Furthermore, blue light induced gonadal regression of the reproductive responses of Japanese quail, and green low intensity lighting accelerated gonadal maturation in yellowtail damselfish Chrysiptera parasema . These results indicate that monochromatic light can influence the expression of hypothalamic GnRH‐I in chickens.…”

“…The intermediate photoperiod was thus used to stimulate follicular development of the control group birds (12h/24d) and enable comparison with the light restriction birds (8h/24d and 8h/36d groups). The white and fluorescent lighting has been used as control by Yadav and Chaturvedi (2015), but with a brightness production of 100 lux, lower than that used in this study (220-270 lux). When we consider the application of the results for pet birds, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the fluorescent lamp is widely used all over the world and the brightness normally found in the home environment can vary between 100 and 200 lux (Brazilian regulation ABNT NBR ISO/CIE 8995-1) in addition to natural light to which they are exposed.…”
