Temporal plasma GH secretory patterns were measured in cannulated male and female meat-type chickens of two commercial strains at 17, 38 and 60 days of age. Pulse height, amplitude and baseline values were similar in both male and female chickens at 17 days of age, with high amplitude and low baseline values. However, by 38 days of age pulsatile GH secretion was not detectable in females, whereas males exhibited a continued pulsatile secretory pattern similar to that at 17 days of age. Pulsatile GH secretion was not evident in either males or females at 60 days of age. These results clearly demonstrate a sexually dimorphic ontogeny of GH secretion in meat-type chickens.
