In this study, it was aimed to determine histological and histochemical structure of uropygial gland
of female and male partridge (Alectoris chukar). For this purpose, the gland samples taken from
four adult female and four adult male partridge were used as the material. It was detected that
there was no significant difference between glands of female and male by the histological aspect
and the wall thickness of male's gland was thinner than female's. As a result of histochemical
applications, it was also determined that carboxylated mucosubstance was intense in female's
uropygial gland while neutral mucosubstance was intense in male's uropygial gland.
