Association of polymorphisms for prolactin and prolactin receptor genes with broody traits in chickens.

Poultry science - 1 Jun 2005

Jiang R S, Xu G Y, Zhang X Q, Yang N

Abstract excerpt

Prolactin (PRL) is generally accepted as crucial to the onset and maintenance of broodiness in avian species. The prolactin receptor (PRLR) plays an important role in the PRL signal transduction cascade. Two candidate genes, PRL and PRLR, were screened for polymorphisms in the chicken, and their genetic effects on broodiness were evaluated. Pedigreed hens (n = 155) of the Blue-shell chicken, a Chinese local...
