ABSTRACT
The histomorphological and histochemical studies were carried out on the lymphoid tissue of Meckel’s diverticulum in 30 Khaki Campbell breed of duck of either sex in different age groups as Gr. I (0-2 weeks), Gr. II (2-4 weeks), Gr. III (4-6 weeks), Gr. IV (6-12 weeks) and Gr. V (12-18 weeks). In Meckel’s diverticulum, there were 4-5 lymphatic aggregations in Gr. I. They were infiltrated with reticular fibers and were covered by light capsule made by collagen fibers. In Gr. II and III birds the mucosa was heavily infiltrated by the lymphatic tissue as compared to Gr. IV and V. In the Meckel’s diverticulum there was mild to moderate PAS positive reaction. The simple tubular mucous glands also showed moderate to strong reaction in all the groups.
Key words: Histochemistry, Histomorphology, Khaki Campbell duck, Lymphoid tissue, Meckel’s diverticulum
