These animals are obtained from the Animal’s Field in the College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Al-Fallujah.<br /><strong>Results</strong> The first indication of the granulocytic series begins from Myeloblast, which possesses eccentric, round or oval nucleus that surrounded by a rim of cytoplasm. The smaller nucleus leads to identify the Promyelocyte. The cytoplasm of Promyelocyte is very light. Definitive granulations appear within the cytoplasm of Myelocyte, which has round to oval nucleus. The elongation of the nucleus indicates the Metamyelocyte. This cell shows the neutrophilic, eosinophilic and basophilic Metamyelocyte. A large segment of a circle or twisted nucleus represent the Band cell. The last stage of granulocytic series is the segmented cell, which is illustrated by segmented neutrophil, eosinophils, and basophils.<br /><strong>Conclusion</strong> The developmental process of granulocytopioesis series of bone marrow in goat encompasses a lineage of successive morphological alterations involves nuclear and cytoplasmic changes as well as granule transformation resulting in the production of granulocytes.<br /><br />}, number={7}, journal={Journal of Contemporary Medical Sciences}, author={Hamdi, Yahia Dahash and Alzubaidi, KA and Al-Kafagy, Siraj M}, year={2016}, month={Sep.}, pages={111–114} }
