Galliform
Definition:
(a.) Like the Gallinae (or Galliformes) in structure.
Example Sentences:
(1) In several groups of galliform birds (chicken, turkey, pheasant and guinea fowl) the presence and function of plasma haptoglobin (Hp) have been studied.
(2) Forty-nine Colorado birds of 6 galliform species were positive for Plasmodium (Giovannolaia) pedioecetii which we feel to be the same parasite described by Wetmore (1939) from a shaptailed grouse from North Dakota.
(3) Natural hosts of MD are probably Galliformes, primarily affecting Gallus and less often other genera of Galliformes.
(4) The brain weight and brain structure volumes of galliform and passeriform birds were calculated and related to body weight.
(5) Galliform data were taken from a recent publication.
(6) Analysis of the relative position of these genes confirmed that the tRNA(Glu) and ND6 genes in galliform mitochondrial DNA are located immediately adjacent to the control region of the molecule instead of between the cytochrome b and ND5 genes as in other vertebrates.

(8) Prevalence was highest in Galliformes (25.2%), followed by Anseriformes (12.9%) and Columbiformes (8.3%).
(9) One can think of galliform digestion functioning in two modes: 1) a low-fiber mode, in which bulk does not limit intake and fiber digestion is unimportant; and 2) a high-fiber mode, in which bulk limits intake and fiber digestion may well be important.
(10) A comparison of the pigeon LC with those of representatives of the order Galliformes described earlier (domestic fowl and Japanese quail) revealed essential differences.
(11) In contrast, some groups with short life-spans (rodents and galliform birds) have shorter MRDs and faster senescence.
