Verification of specific selection SNPs between broiler and layer chicken in Chinese indigenous chicken breeds.
The direction of production for indigenous chicken breeds is currently unknown and this knowledge, combined with the development of chicken genome-wide association studies, led us to investigate differences in specific loci between broiler and layer chicken using bioinformatic methods. In addition, we analyzed the distribution of these seven identified loci in four Chinese indigenous chicken br...
متن کاملAssessment of Population Structure and Genetic Diversity of 15 Chinese Indigenous Chicken Breeds Using Microsatellite Markers
The genetic structure and diversity of 15 Chinese indigenous chicken breeds was investigated using 29 microsatellite markers. The total number of birds examined was 542, on average 36 birds per breed. A total of 277 alleles (mean number 9.55 alleles per locus, ranging from 2 to 25) was observed. All populations showed high levels of heterozygosity with the lowest estimate of 0.440 for the Gushi...
متن کاملLeg Weakness in Commercial Broiler Chicken- an Overview
Success in commercial broiler chicken enterprise depends to a greater extent on minimizing the incidence of disease occurrence and elimination of conditions producing stress to the birds which may result in economic losses. Diseases of the locomotor system are gaining economic significance in poultry industry. Broiler Chicken has a capacity to grow very fast and produce tender meat. They are be...
متن کاملEvaluation of Meat Byproduct – Sinews in Commercial Broiler Chicken Performance
A study was conducted for six weeks period to evaluate the effect of meat byproduct Sinews on commercial broiler performance in a total of 270 unsexed Vencobb chicks. The experimental feeds were prepared by including sinews at zero per cent (controlT1), 2 per cent (T2) and 4 per cent (T3) level in the feed. Addition of two per cent inclusion of Sinews in broiler chicken diet did not showed sign...
متن کاملSignatures of Selection in the Genomes of Commercial and Non-Commercial Chicken Breeds
Identifying genomics regions that are affected by selection is important to understand the domestication and selection history of the domesticated chicken, as well as understanding molecular pathways underlying phenotypic traits and breeding goals. While whole-genome approaches, either high-density SNP chips or massively parallel sequencing, have been successfully applied to identify evidence f...
