Post hatch changes in the cardiac tissue phospholipid molecular species in the cardiac tissue of progeny chicks at day 14 of age as affected by maternal diet. High n-3 and Low n-3 represent breeder hen diet containing 3.5% fish oil or sunflower oil as the source of long chain n-3 fatty acid or n-6 fatty acid (linoleic acid). PC = phosphatidylcholine; PE = phosphatidylethanolamine. Hatched chicks were fed a diet devoid of long chain n-3 or n-6 fatty acids during the 42-day feeding trial. All bars significantly different (P < 0.05). n = 6
