Impact of microsatellite based selection on grower and layer economic traits in Rhode Island Red chicken

The present study aimed to assess impact of selection based on microsatellite-genotypes at ADL0176 and the association MCW0044 located chromosome number-2 with growth layer economic traits in RIR chicken could reveal when sire component influenced progeny-birds different genotypes microsatellites. DD, EE CC/AD-genotypes microsatellite had corresponding higher BW28, BW40 EW40 progeny than other genotypes, while BB-genotype BW40. Present findings suggest use microsatellite-marker for faster genetic improvement chicken, provided its validation by taking larger sample sizes.
